Rate-limit handling and request options

client = Client(
    CONSUMER_KEY,
    CONSUMER_SECRET,
    ACCESS_TOKEN,
    ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET,
    options={
        'handle_rate_limit': True,
        'retry_max': 3,
        'retry_delay': 5000,
        'retry_on_status': [404, 500, 503],
        'retry_on_timeouts': True,
        'timeout': (1.0, 3.0)
    })
Parameter Default Description
handle_rate_limit False (boolean) Set True will check rate-limit response header and sleep if the request reached the limit (429).
retry_max 0 (int) The number of times you want to retry when response code is found in retry_on_status.
retry_delay 1500 (int) The number of milliseconds you want to sleep before retry.
retry_on_status [500, 503] (list) The response codes you want to retry on. You can only set >= 400 status codes.
retry_on_timeouts False (boolean) Set True will catch the timeout error and retry the request.
timeout None You can specify either a single value OR a tuple. If a single value is specified, the timeout value will be applied to both the connect and the read timeouts. See https://2.python-requests.org/en/master/user/advanced/#timeouts for more details of the usage.
