+The ``RetryPlugin`` can automatically attempt to re-send a request that failed,
+to work around unreliable connections and servers. It re-sends the request when
+an exception is thrown, unless the exception is a HttpException for a status
+code in the 5xx server error range. Since version 2.0, responses with status
+codes in the 5xx range are also retried. Each retry attempt is delayed by an
+exponential backoff time.

 Number of retry attempts to make before giving up.

+A callback function that gets the request and response to decide whether the

+A callback that gets a request and response and the current number of retries
