Strategies\n\nreconnect utilises the [backoff](https://github.com/MathieuTurcotte/node-backoff) library to control backoff behaviour.\nThere are 2 options for choosing a strategy for your reconnect instance, pass one of the following to the `strategy` key when creating your instance:\n* Pass the string \"fibonacci\" or \"exponential\" to utilise these built-in backoff strategies, options passed to your reconnect instance will also be passed to these strategies.\n* Pass a Backoff instance, this allows you to customise your backoff strategy by implementing a [Backoff Strategy](https://github.com/MathieuTurcotte/node-backoff#interface-backoffstrategy).\n\nAn example using a custom strategy:\n```js\nvar inject = require('reconnect-core');\nvar backoff = require('backoff');\nvar net = require('net');\n\n// build you own reconnect module\nvar reconnect = inject(function () {\n  // arguments are what you passed to .connect\n  // this is the reconnect instance\n  return net.connect.apply(null, arguments);\n});\n\n// Reconnect every 10 seconds\nvar myStrategy = {\n  next: function() { return 10e3; },\n  reset: function() { }\n}\n\nvar re = reconnect({\n  strategy: new backoff.Backoff(myStrategy),\n  failAfter: Infinity,\n  immediate: false\n}, function (stream) {\n  // stream = the stream you should consume\n})\n```\n\n## Available implementations\n\n* tcp: [reconnect-net](https://github.com/juliangruber/reconnect-net)\n* engine.io/websockets: [reconnect-engine](https://github.com/juliangruber/reconnect-engine)\n\n## Installation\n\nWith [npm](https://npmjs.org) do:\n\n```bash\nnpm install reconnect-core\n```\n\n## Kudos\n\nThis has been refactored out of [dominictarr](https://github.com/dominictarr)'s\n[reconnect](https://github.com/dominictarr/reconnect) module.\n\n## License\n\n(MIT)\n\nCopyright (c) 2013 Julian Gruber
