Hi there 👋

psretry's Issues

New functionality

Hi, I found your module (PSRetry) when I looked for some improvement for my current retry solution. You've prepared very good stuff!

I tried it and found two things I would like to change/improve.

1. Your module is built to use Powershell 7 ( I saw you used matching stuff introduced in version 7).
   In my company, we still need to use machines with Powershell 5.1 and I would like to adapt the module to use 5.1.

2. The second thing is the final behavior of the function Invoke-PSRetryExpression. In a lot of cases, we want/need to Continue or SilentlyContinue even if the retry series will finally fail. I would like to introduce a $FinalAction variable that let the users decide if they want to stop the script at all after failed retry series.

I prepared both functionalities described above. But my question is if you want to change your module or should I upload a second one with your Copyright in a license file?

Best Regards,
Sebastian
