max_backtracking_attempts value

[Momilijaz96]

I am using dspy.Suggest and want to set a custom value for max_backtracking_attempts

You should be able to do that by creating your own backtrack_handler setting the max_backtracks value:

dspy/dspy/primitives/assertions.py

Line 179 in 300f0ed

def backtrack_handler(func, bypass_suggest=True, max_backtracks=2):

You then need to set your custom backtrack handler as the assertion_handler when calling assert_transform_module:

dspy/dspy/primitives/assertions.py

Line 304 in 300f0ed

assertion_handler=default_assertion_handler,
