How to set curl’s timeout in PHP?
To set curl’s timeout in PHP, we can set the CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT and CURLOPT_TIMEOUT options.
For instance, we write
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 400);
to set the CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT option with curl_setopt to set the connect timeout to 0, which makes the timeout indefinite.
And we call curl_setopt again to set CURLOPT_TIMEOUT to 400 seconds.
Then we write
set_time_limit(0);
to call set_time_limit with 0 to make the max execution time of the PHP script indefinite.
Conclusion
