:connection-timeout http request cancellation

[bplatz]

Hi,

I'm utilizing :connection-timeout on an http request, and when that request
times out, I'll try to reconnect up to n times.

I've noticed that when the service can connect, every request (all n) go
through.

If this is the intended behavior, is there a way to truly cancel the
requests that get timed out? While my requests are idempotent, I'm trying
to eliminate unnecessary load on the target.

Thanks!

Hi Brian,

Aleph uses a connection pool, and will reuse successful connections where
possible. If you'd like to avoid this, you can define a pool with
{:connection-options {:keep-alive? false}}, and use it via :pool in each
request. The :connection-timeout is different than the :request-timeout,
though, maybe you meant to use that?
