A simple package to add timeout to requests

Project description

Timeout Decorator

A versatile timeout decorator for both synchronous and asynchronous functions in Python.

Features

  • Works with both synchronous and asynchronous functions
  • Customizable timeout duration
  • Optional callback function on timeout
  • Support for custom exception on timeout
  • Colored logging

Installation

pip install timeout-decorator

Parameters

timeout: The maximum execution time in seconds. callback (optional): A function to be called if the timeout occurs. custom_error (optional): A custom exception class to be raised on timeout.

Usage

Basic Usage

from timeout_decorator import timeout_decorator

@timeout_decorator(5)  # 5 seconds timeout
def my_function():
    # Your code here
    pass

@timeout_decorator(10)  # 10 seconds timeout
async def my_async_function():
    # Your async code here
    pass

Advanced Usage

from timeout_decorator import timeout_decorator

def on_timeout(func_name, *args, **kwargs):
    print(f"Function {func_name} timed out!")

class MyTimeoutError(Exception):
    pass

@timeout_decorator(5, callback=on_timeout, custom_error=MyTimeoutError)
def my_function():
    # Your code here
    pass

# Usage with synchronous function
try:
    result = my_function()
except MyTimeoutError:
    print("Caught custom timeout error")

# Usage with asynchronous function
@timeout_decorator(5, callback=on_timeout, custom_error=MyTimeoutError)
async def my_async_function():
    # Your async code here
    pass

import asyncio

async def main():
    try:
        result = await my_async_function()
    except MyTimeoutError:
        print("Caught custom timeout error")

asyncio.run(main())

Tests

run

   pytest tests/test_timeout_decorator.py -v

Notes

For synchronous functions, the decorator uses a ThreadPoolExecutor to implement the timeout.

For asynchronous functions, it uses asyncio.wait_for().

The decorator automatically detects whether the decorated function is synchronous or asynchronous.
