Hello,
I would like to set a timeout in milliseconds when using Kamailio module http_client. From what I read, the module is accepting a parameter “connection_timeout”:
https://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/modules/http_client.html#http_cl...
This is used to set curl option “CURLOPT_TIMEOUT”. I would like to set instead curl option “CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS”.
I think changing the parameter “connection_timeout” from seconds to milliseconds is not a good idea, since it would break existing configurations. What about adding a new parameter “connection_timeout_ms” to the module ?
Curl documentation says that: “If both CURLOPT_TIMEOUT and CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS are set, the value set last is used.” The CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS should only be set if the parameter is non-zero, so that the current behaviour is kept if the new parameter is not configured.
What do you think ?
It is propably a good idea. Looking forward to a patch. :-)
