hyper v0.6.8 - Socket Timeouts

The newest release of hyper includes an unstable feature to set read and write timeouts for those of your daring enough to live on nightly. To do so, you’ll need to enable the timeouts cargo feature:

[dependencies.hyper]
version = "0.6.8"
features = "timeouts"

And then you can set them on a Client or Server:

let mut client = Client::new();
client.set_read_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(30));
client.set_write_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(30));

// ... or a server
let mut server = Server::http(addr).unwrap();
server.set_read_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(10));
server.set_write_timeout(Some(Duration::from_secs(10));
