Can't set "repetitionAttempts" for suspended transactions

I think the title already explains everything, there isn’t a way to set the repetition attempts for newSuspendedTransaction or suspendedTransactionAsync

Also, I may be wrong, but it seems that by default suspended transactions do not retry like how transaction behaves, it always fails when a concurrent update/delete/etc exception happens, while with non suspended transactions Exposed tries again.

My own workaround for this issue, mimicking Exposed’s transaction behavior.:

    suspend fun <T> newSuspendedTransaction(repetitions: Int = 5, statement: org.jetbrains.exposed.sql.Transaction.() -> T): T {
        var lastException: Exception? = null
        for (i in 1..repetitions) {
            try {
                return org.jetbrains.exposed.sql.transactions.experimental.newSuspendedTransaction(Dispatchers.IO, Databases.loritta) {
                    statement.invoke(this)
                }
            } catch (e: ExposedSQLException) {
                logger.warn(e) { "Exception while trying to execute query. Tries: $i" }
                lastException = e
            }
        }
        throw lastException ?: RuntimeException("This should never happen")
    }

@MrPowerGamerBR are you still using this workaround? I encountered a similar issue and i guess will go a the same route then you since i did not find any other option to provide a retry value. Btw. thanks for providing the sample code 👍

Yup! And it works fine 😃
