Description: Python Backoff Decorator
        ========================
        
        This package implements exponential backoff as a decorator.  Backoff is
        triggered by an exception and is reset when the call is successful.
        
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        Apply exponential backoff to any function or method by simply adding the
        decorator:
        
        ```python
        import backoff
        import requests
        
        @backoff.Backoff()
        def send_data(data):
            requests.post('https://example.com/data', data={'data': data})
        
        try:
            send_data('foo')
        except:
            # do something with data that wasn't posted
        ```
        
        In the example above calls to `send_data()` will exponentially backoff when
        POST is not successful.
        
        
        Calls During Backoff Period
        ---------------------------
        
        Any calls made during the backoff period will raise an `InBackoff` exception.
        
        
        Setting Maximum Backoff
        -----------------------
        
        By default the maximum backoff is 1 hour.  The `max_backoff` argument can be
        passed to change the default; the following will only backoff for 5 minutes:
        
        ```python
        @backoff.Backoff(max_backoff=300)
        def send_data(data):
            requests.post('https://example.com/data', data={'data': data})
        ```
