server-side timeout?

[Vijay Lakshminarayanan]

Hi

I'd like to cap the longevity of any client request on the server's
side. Is this possible?

Thanks
Vijay

In Go, you can set the Context with Deadline, and the server side handler can check if the request should be aborted (which may happen automatically if the Context is passed to another service, like db connection).

Thanks Robert. I forgot to mention that I'm using Java. I'll look
for the equivalent APIs in Java.

Thanks

Here:

response = blockingStub.withDeadlineAfter(deadlineMs, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS).sayHello(request);




from

And the server side checking:

Java

if (Context.current().isCancelled()) {
  responseObserver.onError(Status.CANCELLED.withDescription("Cancelled by client").asRuntimeException());
  return;
}
