Handle timeout with Alamofire

Question

Is it possible to add timeout handler for Alamofire request?

In my project I use Alamofire this way:

init() {
    let configuration = NSURLSessionCon         


        

Answer 1

For Swift 3.x / Swift 4.0 / Swift 5.0 users with Alamofire >= 5.0

Used request modifier to increase and decrease the timeout interval.

Alamofire's request creation methods offer the most common parameters for customization but sometimes those just aren't enough. The URLRequests created from the passed values can be modified by using a RequestModifier closure when creating requests. For example, to set the URLRequest's timeoutInterval to 120 seconds, modify the request in the closure.

var manager = Session.default
 manager.request(urlString, method: method, parameters: dict, headers: headers, requestModifier: { $0.timeoutInterval = 120 }).validate().responseJSON { response in

OR

RequestModifiers also work with trailing closure syntax.

var manager = Session.default
     manager.request("https://httpbin.org/get") { urlRequest in
    urlRequest.timeoutInterval = 60
    urlRequest.allowsConstrainedNetworkAccess = false
}
.response(...)
