Documentation
require('connect-request-timeout')(options)
Returns Connect middleware that throws an error after the specified request
timeout elapses.
Default behavior:
- Delay defaults to DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, or DEFAULT_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT if
Content-Type: multipart/form-data is set
- Once the timer expires, an error is thrown
- If
res.writeHead
or res.write
are called before the timer expires, then the
timer is reset. This may continue for a maximum of maxTimeout
ms.
Options include:
- timeout (defaults to 10 seconds)
- uploadTimeout (defaults to 1 minute)
- maxTimeout - the maximum number of ms to wait for a request even if the
server is writing data to the ServerResponse Object (defaults to 10 mins.)
- errorPrototype - the type of Error to throw (defaults to
Error
)
Functions added to the request object:
- req.setTimeout([delay, errorProto]) - sets/resets the timeout for this request
- req.clearTimeout() - clears the timeout for this request
- req.getTimeout() - returns the timeout for this request, not the number
of ms remaining.
