hyper-timeout

A timeout aware connector to be used with hyper Client.

Problem

At the time this crate was created, hyper does not support timeouts. There is a way to do general timeouts, but no easy way to get connect, read and write specific timeouts.

Solution

There is a TimeoutConnector that implements the hyper::Connect trait. This connector wraps around HttpConnector or HttpsConnector values and provides timeouts.

Note: Because of the way tokio_proto::ClientProto works, a read or write timeout will return a broken pipe error.

Usage

First, add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
hyper-timeout = "0.1"

Next, add this to your crate:

extern crate hyper_timeout;

See the client example for a working example.
