# RestarterEx
## Basic usage
Initially you should befine a backoff. If you don't a constant backoff of one seconf is assumed:
```
backoff = RestarterEx.Backoff{
min: 1000, # in ms
max: 3600000, # in ms
step_size: 2000, # in ms; Only needed when strategy is linear
strategy: :linear # or :constant or :double'
}
```
Add RestarerEx to your supervision tree which will start your GenServer underneath:
```
Supervisor.Spec.worker(
RestarterEx,
[
[
child_spec:
{
MyModule.MyGenServer,
:start_link,
my_args
},
backoff: backoff
]
],
id: :restarter_id
)
```
