[Feature Request]: Add Timer/Time Out option to stop dev proxy #845

Open OnurGumus opened 1 month ago

OnurGumus commented 1 month ago

It would be nice to add some sort of timer, that devproxy stops itself after that time passes as an additional safety net where it can be left open, in particular in CI/CD scenarios.

devproxy --timer 180  
// will stop dev proxy after 3 minutes

Thanks for the suggestion @OnurGumus. Could you give us some more information behind the thinking and how you'd prefer this over explicitly closing proxy by sending a SIGINT?

Hi,

I was thinking something like timeout command on linux. But perhaps triggers if there are no requests for given duration. It's a sort of safety net against devproxy left open.

Thanks for clarifying. Nice suggestion!
