Polly v5.0 is now in alpha on Nuget

[reisenberger]

Per the project board, PolicyWrap, ExecutionKeys, Fallback policy, Bulkhead isolation and Timeout policy are now all in alpha, delivered into the v5.0-alpha branch.

This issue signals our intention to make an alpha-release of this material to Nuget in week-beginning 24 October (or earlier).

Main pre-requisite: documentation of the new policies (underway) in both readme and wiki.

First documentation for the new v5.0 policies is now out on the wiki:

• Timeout
• Bulkhead Isolation
• Fallback
• PolicyWrap

v5.0 release to nuget expected 24 or 25 October

EDIT: The quickstart documentation for each policy is already in the readme of the v5.0-alpha branch

We're pleased to announce that Polly v5.0.1 is now out in alpha on nuget, with the new policies:

• Timeout
• Bulkhead Isolation
• Fallback
• PolicyWrap.

See the latest blog post on www.thepollyproject.org for an overview of what's in the release, details of (very minor) breaking changes, and what (again, not much) could change before the final v5.0 RTM.

For usual syntax overview, see the v5.0-alpha branch readme

For detail on each policy, see the wiki (or detailed links to each policy at top this post).

To feedback on v5.0-alpha, comment here, or join the discussion on slack! All feedback helps shape Polly as we take features to the next level!

Thanks
