Have you ever wanted to make things timeout stuff after so much time has elapsed?

Do you have an SLA that dictates that if a certain function isn't performing up to snuff it doesn't reach a certain time limit

pip install timeout.stuff

1. Fork the repo and clone your fork
2. Run in the base repo:

python setup.py develop && pip install -r requirements-test.txt

• Context managers can be used to timeout code blocks if they reach a certain elapsed amount of time specified by the user
• The same type of functionality can be used as a wrapper for functions

Use it to timeout a block of code after a certain amount of elapsed time

import timeout


# Timeout this code block after 10 seconds has elapsed
with timeout.of(10):
    result = some_complex_stuff()
    some_more_complex_stuff(result)

Wrap functions that take a long time to do stuff and make sure they timeout correctly

import timeout


# Set some_complex_stuff to timeout after 10 seconds has elapsed
@timeout.after(10)
def some_complex_stuff():
    # Execute some complex behavior

some_complex_stuff()
