receive_timeout regarding stream/5 & async_request/3
jswanner opened this issue · comments
Thanks for the amazing library!
Finch.stream/5
seems to treat the receive_timeout
option differently between v0.16.0 & main (9609c40), and I believe it stems from 823cc65.
On main, Finch.stream/5
(and Finch.async_request/3
) timeout after the receive_timeout
threshold has elapsed, even if data are being received. While on v0.16.0, the connection times out after the receive_timeout
threshold has elapsed since the last chunk of data (rather than from the start of the connection).
Maybe I'm wanting to do something that's not intended to be supported, which is to leave the streaming connection open as long as it's still receiving data (the API I'm calling should send pings every 5 seconds). I can work around the problem by setting a very high receive_timeout
value and then reconnect on timeout, but it would be nice to somehow have the receive_timeout
behavior of v0.16.0.
Thank you for the kind words!
I see your point.
I guess, the value that is passed to the recv calls should always be the :receive_timeout
and something similar to the new behaviour that was introduced could be implemented as a new :request_timeout
option for the overall duration of request.

@sneako, what you proposed sounds good to me. I thought I understood what needed to happen well enough to implement it myself, but turns out I don't know what I'm doing. Mint seems to be pipelining requests, and the request ref
is unexpectedly changing.
Would you like me to push a broken PR? Maybe you'll have some insight into what I'm doing wrong.

I'm not @sneako, but it seems totally reasonable to push it as a Draft PR!
Thanks for the prompt @zachallaun, I had been intending to make the PR, but had been focusing on other things.
