Nodejs SOAP module - timout option

Question

How can I set the timeout for soap.createClient and/or client.myFunction? It is not mentioned in the documentation. If it not possible, is there a work around?

Answer 1

After an hour of trying, i found it, basically it uses request, and wsdl_options will override request option. You can follow below example. :))

soap.createClient(url, {wsdl_options: {timeout: 5000}}, callback)

Answer 2

This is what it is mentioned in node-soap documentation

client.MyService.MyPort.MyFunction({name: 'value'}, function(err, result) {
    // result is a javascript object
}, {timeout: 5000})

Options are set as 3rd parameter after callback function.

Basically it uses request module for http transport. So the options of request module are also valid for the soap module
