Graph Answer Generation with Retry Logic

This repository contains a minimal example of how to replace a special "reflect" node in a graph-based answer generation system with a simple try/except retry mechanism.

Features

• Retry Logic: Attempts to generate an answer up to a configurable number of times (max_retries). If all attempts fail, a GenerationError is raised.
• Backoff: Optional exponential backoff between retries.
• Simulation: The example uses a simulated generator that randomly fails to demonstrate the retry behavior.

Usage

# Run the example
python -m src.index

You should see output similar to:

Answer generated successfully:
Generated answer content

If the generation fails after all retries, you will see:

Error: Answer generation failed after 3 attempts

Customization

• Changing the number of retries:

  answer = get_answer_with_retry(max_retries=5)
  

• Using a real generator:

  Replace _simulate_answer_generation with your own function that performs the actual answer generation logic.
