Instead, other operations should only be accessed via injected dependencies. Avoiding cyclic dependencies is important for module bundlers. - -## Retries - -Many operations in the wallet are automatically retried when they fail or when the wallet -is still waiting for some external condition (such as a wire transfer to the exchange). - -Retries are generally controlled by a "retryInfo" field in the corresponding database record. This field is set to undefined when no retry should be scheduled. - -Generally, the code to process a pending operation should first increment the -retryInfo (and reset the lastError) and then process the operation. This way, -it is impossble to forget incrementing the retryInfo. - -For each retriable operation, there are usually `setupRetry`, `incrementRetry` and -`reportError` operations. - -Note that this means that _during_ some operation, lastError will be cleared. The UI -should accommodate for this. - -It would be possible to store a list of last errors, but we currently don't do that.
