I am using node-fetch to perform a get request
const fetch = require("node-fetch");
try {
const response = await fetch(
`https://someurl/?id=${id}`
);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
The API take long time to return the response, around 15 minutes. With postman everything works fine, but with node-fetch I get a time out error after 600000 ms. So I assume node-fetch has a default timeout. I found some ways to change the default time-out, but if I understand the code well, this will make the default timeout shorter, but will not extend it. Any advice on that?
import * as fetch from "node-fetch"
export default function (url: any, options: any, timeout = 5000) {
return Promise.race([
fetch(url, options),
new Promise((_, reject) => setTimeout(() => reject("timeout"), timeout)),
])
}
