"retry.delay" property is missed in dsl-specification

[dimastbk]

I tried this:

• specification/schema/workflow.yaml

  Lines 1675 to 1678 in 6390951

  	delay:
  	$ref: '#/$defs/duration'
  	title: RetryDelay
  	description: The duration to wait between retry attempts.

• specification/dsl-reference.md

  Lines 2181 to 2188 in 6390951

  	| Property | Type | Required | Description |
  	|----------|:----:|:--------:|-------------|
  	| when | `string` | `no` | A a runtime expression used to determine whether or not to retry running the task, in a given context. |
  	| exceptWhen | `string` | `no` | A runtime expression used to determine whether or not to retry running the task, in a given context. |

@dimastbk The delay is set using a backoff strategy. In your case, it would be a linear backoff.

Ill therefore close the issue as wont implement ;)

[dimastbk]

@cdavernas but why "delay" exists in schema and example? I just sync documentation and schemas.

[dimastbk]

@cdavernas sorry but what I should do? Remove "delay" from schema? Mark it as deprecated?

[cdavernas]

@dimastbk First of all, sorry for the delay — things have been quite busy on my end.

After a more careful review, I realized that I overlooked the delay property, which is indeed meant to be used in combination with the backoff property. Ironically, I’m the author of that component myself — I must have been tired or distracted during the initial review.

As a result, I’m reopening and approving your PR.

Apologies for the confusion, and thanks for your patience!
