What is Axios default timeout

I found in the documentation steps to set the timeout value.

const instance = axios.create({
  baseURL: 'https://some-domain.com/api/',
  timeout: 1000,
  headers: {'X-Custom-Header': 'foobar'}
});

But I could not find the default value in the official axios documentation.

What is the default timeout?

Also, Underneath AXIOS uses http server/client (https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_clientrequest)

Does it use the http default timeout? I see my program timesout after 2 minutes.

Solution

  • According to the README, it is 0 which means no timeout

    // `timeout` specifies the number of milliseconds before the request times out.
// If the request takes longer than `timeout`, the request will be aborted.
timeout: 1000, // default is `0` (no timeout)
