Handling 429 Responses
Retry with backoff
async function fetchWithRetry(url, apiKey, retries = 3) {
for (let i = 0; i < retries; i++) {
const res = await fetch(url, {
headers: { "X-API-Key": apiKey }
});
if (res.status !== 429) return res;
const retryAfter = res.headers.get("Retry-After") || "5";
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, parseInt(retryAfter) * 1000));
}
throw new Error("Rate limited after retries");
