Alibaba Cloud SDK:Configure a timeout period

Last Updated:Jul 08, 2024

This topic describes how to configure a timeout period in Alibaba Cloud SDK for Python V2.0.

Methods

Note

The priority of timeout period settings are listed in descending order: settings configured by using RuntimeOptions, settings configured by using a Config, and default settings.

  • Use default settings. The default timeout period for connection requests is 5,000 milliseconds and the default timeout period for read requests is 10,000 milliseconds.

  • Use RuntimeOptions. 

    import os from alibabacloud_ecs20140526.client import Client as EcsClient from alibabacloud_ecs20140526.models import DescribeRegionsRequest from alibabacloud_tea_openapi.models import Config from alibabacloud_tea_util.models import RuntimeOptions config = Config( access_key_id=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID'), access_key_secret=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET'), endpoint='ecs-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com' ) ecs_client = EcsClient(config) # The timeout period settings take effect only for requests that use RuntimeOptions. runtimeOptions = RuntimeOptions( read_timeout=10000 # Configure the timeout period for read requests. Unit: millisecond. connect_timeout=5000 # Configure the timeout period for connection requests. Unit: millisecond. ) request = DescribeRegionsRequest() response = ecs_client.describe_regions_with_options(request, runtimeOptions) print(response.body)

  • Use a Config. 

    import os from alibabacloud_ecs20140526.client import Client as EcsClient from alibabacloud_ecs20140526.models import DescribeRegionsRequest from alibabacloud_tea_openapi.models import Config from alibabacloud_tea_util.models import RuntimeOptions # The timeout period settings take effect for SDK clients that are initialized by using the Config. config = Config( access_key_id=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID'), access_key_secret=os.environ.get('ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET'), endpoint='ecs-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com', read_timeout=10000 # Configure the timeout period for read requests. Unit: millisecond. connect_timeout=5000 # Configure the timeout period for connection requests. Unit: millisecond. ) ecs_client = EcsClient(config) runtimeOptions = RuntimeOptions() request = DescribeRegionsRequest() response = ecs_client.describe_regions_with_options(request, runtimeOptions) print(response.body)
