Default Time-Out

rpattison
Explorer

From time to time we get a timed out status with no response time. How long does the script wait for the site to respond before it times out and is that threshold configurable?

Looks like it may be 30 seconds.

bin]$ grep -i timeout *.py
modular_input.py:        def __init__(self, timeout=30):
web_ping.py:    def __init__(self, timeout=30, thread_limit=None):
web_ping.py:        if timeout > 0:
web_ping.py:            self.timeout = timeout
web_ping.py:            self.timeout = 30
web_ping.py:    def determine_auth_type(cls, url, proxies=None, timeout=None, cert=None, logger=None):
web_ping.py:        timeout -- The amount of time to quit waiting on a connection
web_ping.py:            http = requests.get(url.geturl(), proxies=proxies, timeout=timeout, cert=cert,
web_ping.py:    def ping(cls, url, username=None, password=None, timeout=30, proxy_type=None,
web_ping.py:        timeout -- The amount of time to quit waiting on a connection.
web_ping.py:        # Make sure that a timeout is not None since that is infinite
web_ping.py:        if timeout is None:
web_ping.py:            timeout = 30
web_ping.py:            auth_type = cls.determine_auth_type(url, proxies=proxies, timeout=timeout, cert=cert,
web_ping.py:                http = requests.get(url.geturl(), proxies=proxies, timeout=timeout, cert=cert, verify=False, auth=auth, headers=headers)
web_ping.py:        except requests.exceptions.Timeout:
web_ping.py:        timeout = self.timeout
