How to specify timeout for SocketHttpServer.

[LacticWhale]

Problem: I need to create api and some methods I call can take up to 45 seconds to generate a response. Is there a way to remove or increase timeout.

I copied example with delayed response and increased wait time to 30 seconds.

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php declare(strict_types=1);

require "vendor/autoload.php";

use Amp\ByteStream;
use Amp\Http\HttpStatus;
use Amp\Http\Server\DefaultErrorHandler;
use Amp\Http\Server\Request;
use Amp\Http\Server\RequestHandler\ClosureRequestHandler;
use Amp\Http\Server\Response;
use Amp\Http\Server\SocketHttpServer;
use Amp\Log\ConsoleFormatter;
use Amp\Log\StreamHandler;
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Processor\PsrLogMessageProcessor;
use function Amp\delay;
use function Amp\trapSignal;

// Run this script, then visit http://localhost:1338/ in your browser.

$logHandler = new StreamHandler(ByteStream\getStdout());
$logHandler->pushProcessor(new PsrLogMessageProcessor());
$logHandler->setFormatter(new ConsoleFormatter());
$logger = new Logger('server');
$logger->pushHandler($logHandler);

$server = SocketHttpServer::createForDirectAccess($logger);

$server->expose("0.0.0.0:1338");
$server->expose("[::]:1338");

$server->start(new ClosureRequestHandler(function (Request $request) use($logger): Response {
    // We delay the response here, but this could also be non-blocking I/O.
    // Further requests are still processed concurrently.
    delay(30);

    $logger->info("End of delay.");

    return new Response(HttpStatus::OK, [
        "content-type" => "text/plain; charset=utf-8",
    ], "Hello, World!");
}), new DefaultErrorHandler());

// Await a termination signal to be received.
$signal = trapSignal([\SIGHUP, \SIGINT, \SIGQUIT, \SIGTERM]);

$logger->info(sprintf("Received signal %d, stopping HTTP server", $signal));

$server->stop();

And result I get:

$ time curl -m 60 http://127.0.0.1:1338/
curl: (52) Empty reply from server

real    0m14.483s
user    0m0.009s
sys     0m0.006s

I also encountered this problem, please advise the solution to this issue

It seems like the timeout is implemented improperly here. It should only apply while the client is still sending data.

This issue has been fixed in 3.4.0.
