Express Timeout

GitHub license

express-timeout is a middleware for Express.js that adds timeout functionality to your routes. With this middleware, you can easily set a timeout for specific routes, ensuring that requests that take too long are automatically terminated.

Installation

npm install @imax.i7/express-timeout

Usage

const express = require("express");
const { RateLimitMiddleware } = require("@imax.i7/express-timeout");

const app = express();

app.use((req, res, next) =>
  RateLimitMiddleware({
    content: {
      error: "The user is now on a timeout.",
      req,
      res,
      next,
    },
  })
);

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log("Server is running on port 3000");
});

Options

You can customize the timeout duration and handle the timeout event.

// Customize timeout duration (10 seconds) and handle timeout event
app.use((req, res, next) =>
  RateLimitMiddleware({
    req,
    res,
    next,
    onTimeout: handleTimeout,
  })
);

function handleTimeout(req, res) {
  res.status(503).send("Request timed out");
}

Important Note

Make sure to place the @imax.i7/express-timeout middleware before your route handlers to ensure it takes effect.
