Handle HTTP timeouts better #37

Closed jerith closed 10 years ago

jerith commented 10 years ago

We currently don't set a timeout on our HTTP calls to the MediaWiki API.

Are we not able to set the reactor for the Agent that http_request_full uses? That way we could use clock.advance(timeout) and check that stuff works properly and we send back some reasonable response over USSD instead of leaving the user hanging?

I like @smn's idea.
