any possible way to include timeout on fetch()?

couldn’t find the docs for this repository… my code looks like this:

fetch('/test', { method: 'POST', body: data })
    .then(function(response) {
        if (response.status >= 400) {
            throw new Error("Bad response from server");
        }
        return response.json();
})
    .then(function(response) {
        console.log(response)
    });

would like to fake a server response for the fetch… any ideas?

thanks in advance

Create a timeoutPromise wrapper…

function timeoutPromise(timeout, err, promise) {
  return new Promise(function(resolve,reject) {
    promise.then(resolve,reject);
    setTimeout(reject.bind(null,err), timeout);
  });
}

You can then wrap any promise…

timeoutPromise(100, new Error('Timed Out!'), fetcn(...))
  .then(...)
  .catch(...)

It won’t actually cancel an underlying connection, but will allow you to timeout a promise.

This is how you should be handling abort:

const controller = new AbortController()
const signal = controller.signal

setTimeout(() => { 
  controller.abort()
}, 1000)

fetch(url, { signal })
