Hello Nicolas,

sounds good, an additional parameter while keeping the existing functionality 
for the existing timeout would work.

Just create a pull request, then developers can review it and maybe some 
smaller adjustments could be done before a merge.

Thanks,

Henning

Subject: [sr-dev] Kamailio module http_client - setting timeout in ms - new 
parameter ?

Hello,


I would like to set a timeout in milliseconds when using Kamailio module 
http_client.
>From what I read, the module is accepting a parameter "connection_timeout":

https://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/modules/http_client.html#http_client.p.connection_timeout

This is used to set curl option "CURLOPT_TIMEOUT".
I would like to set instead curl option "CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS".

I think changing the parameter "connection_timeout" from seconds to 
milliseconds is not a good idea, since it would break existing configurations.
What about adding a new parameter "connection_timeout_ms" to the module ?

Curl documentation says that: "If both CURLOPT_TIMEOUT and CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS 
are set, the value set last is used."
The CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS should only be set if the parameter is non-zero, so that 
the current behaviour is kept if the new parameter is not configured.


What do you think ?


Regards,
Nicolas.
