How to Retry LLM Calls on Rate Limit Errors in Python
Implement a retry mechanism with exponential backoff for LLM API calls that raises a custom RateLimitError, using a mock function to demonstrate the pattern.
import time
import random
def mock_llm_call():
"""Simulates an LLM API call that may raise a rate limit error."""
if random.random() < 0.4: # 40% chance of rate limit
raise RateLimitError("Rate limit exceeded. Try again later.")
return {"response": "Hello world from mock LLM"}
class RateLimitE…How to implement exponential backoff for LLM API calls in Python
A decorator that retries flaky LLM API calls with exponential delay, using a mock client to demonstrate the pattern.
import time
import random
class MockLLM:
def call(self, prompt):
if random.random() < 0.7: # 70% chance of transient failure
raise ConnectionError("API unavailable")
return f"LLM response for: {prompt}"
