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_client.p.connection_timeout

 

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 ?

 

 

Regards,

Nicolas.
