res = request_with_retry(method="GET", url="https://example.com", status_codes_to_retry=[408, 503])

# Sending an HTTP request with custom timeout in seconds
res = request_with_retry(method="GET", url="https://example.com", timeout=5)

# Sending an HTTP request with custom authorization handling
class CustomAuth(requests.auth.AuthBase):
    def __call__(self, r):
        r.headers["authorization"] = "Basic <my_token_here>"
        return r

res = request_with_retry(method="GET", url="https://example.com", auth=CustomAuth())

# All of the above combined

    method="GET",
    url="https://example.com",
    auth=CustomAuth(),
    attempts=10,
    status_codes_to_retry=[408, 503],
