Refinitiv Data Platform Library (Typescript) timeout

tristan.lee

Hi all,

I am trying to Get multiple fields for multiple instruments and I have only got a 10second window as there is a default 10 seconds timeout error when it takes too long for the API to give me a response.

Is there any way for me to set the timeout to a longer timeframe like 30 seconds?

Thanks,

It should read the configuration file located in the current directory.

I tested it with the example on GitHub.

You can enable the debug log level to check the value of request-timeout.

{
    "http":{
        "request-timeout": 60
    },
    "logs": {
        "level": "debug",
        "filter": "*",
        "transports": {
            "console": {
                "enabled": true
            },
            "file": {
                "enabled": false,
                "name": "rdlib"
            }
        }
    }
}

Hello @tristan.lee

Could you please share your snippet code that encounters the problem, and the following information as well?

• The Library version
• Which session type that you are using? I am assuming you are using the Platform session, am I correct?
• Full logs when the problem occurs.

Is it http request-timeout? The default value is 10 seconds.

[2023-10-04T03:11:56.676Z][DEBUG][http:client][55356] HTTP settings: { 'request-timeout': 10 }

You can change its value via the following configuration.

{
    "http":{
        "request-timeout": 60
    },
    "logs": {
        "level": "debug",
        "filter": "*",
...

[2023-10-04T03:13:16.372Z][DEBUG][http:client][133832] HTTP settings: { 'request-timeout': 60 }

Thanks For replying @wasin.w ,

1. I have this version on my package.json file ==>

"@refinitiv-data/data": "^3.11.0-beta"

2. I am using platform session yes.

3. Its just a timeout error of 10000 ms exceeded.

Thanks

THanks for replying @Jirapongse,

Please have a look at my rdplibconfig.prod.json file

{

"http": {

"request-timeout": 60

},

"logs": {

"level": "warn",

"filter": "*",

"transports": {

"console": {

"enabled": false

},

"file": {

"enabled": false,

"name": "rdlib"

}

}

}

}

I am struggling to find where I should import the rdplibconfig file as it seems to still send the request with 10 seconds timeout.

I am sending a post request this way:

const params: EndpointRequestDefinitionParams = {

url: 'data/datagrid/beta1/',

bodyParameters: {

'universe': HomecodeArray,

'fields': fieldsArray,

},

method: Delivery.EndpointRequest.Method.POST,

};

const def = Delivery.EndpointRequest.Definition(params);

const response: any = await def.getData(session);

Thanks for you help!
