generate a promise that keep invoking another promise generator until it succeed

retryUntilSuccess.js

function retryUntilSuccess(promiseFunc, args, timeout = 1000, retry = -1) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const tryForTimes = (attempts) => {
      promiseFunc(...args).then((result) => {
        resolve(result);
      }).catch((err) => {
        if (attempts === 0) {
          reject(err);
        } else {
          setTimeout(() => tryForTimes(attempts - 1), timeout);
        }
      });
    };
    tryForTimes(retry);
  });
}
