pyramid-retry
An execution policy for Pyramid that supports retrying requests after certain failure exceptions.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are building a Pyramid application and need automatic retry logic for transient failures. The package is stable (Production/Stable status), has low install friction, and is actively maintained. However, note that the last release was in 2020; verify compatibility with your Pyramid version before adopting.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Pyramid framework to be installed and configured; pyramid_retry is an execution policy that integrates into Pyramid's request handling pipeline.
- Low install friction: pure Python wheel with only two runtime dependencies (pyramid and zope.interface).
- Maintenance status is active with recent commits, though the last release was in 2020.

What it is and what it does
pyramid_retry is an execution policy for the Pyramid web framework that intercepts request handling and automatically retries failed requests under certain conditions. When a request raises an exception that the policy considers retryable, it will attempt to re-execute the request up to a configurable limit before allowing the error to propagate. The policy is configured via settings and can be customized per-request through hooks; it also fires events before each retry attempt, allowing applications to perform cleanup or state management.
The package depends on pyramid and zope.interface and integrates directly into Pyramid's request/response cycle. It is useful for handling transient failures in web applications—network glitches, temporary resource unavailability, or other recoverable errors—without requiring explicit retry logic in application code.
Use it for
- Automatically retry requests that fail due to transient database connection issues or temporary service unavailability.
- Handle client disconnects gracefully by ensuring threadlocals are cleaned up even when retries fail.
- Implement per-request retry limits using a custom activate_hook to vary retry behavior based on request properties.
- Subscribe to IBeforeRetry events to reset request state or clean up resources before each retry attempt.
- Mark specific exceptions as retryable using mark_error_retryable so the policy knows which errors warrant a retry.
