Is timeout option implemented?

[chrishiestand]

It could just be that I'm not understanding how to use options, but I also do not see timeouts implemented in the source.

Should this request timeout after 5 seconds? I have tried this and I do not get a timeout with version 0.5.0.

  unirest
  .post(`http://localhost/api`)
  .headers(
    { 'x-test': "true",
      'x-test-data': "55" }
  )
  .attach({
    'file': './path/file.jpg'
  })
  .timeout(5000)
  .end((response) => {

    if (!response.ok) {
      throw new Error('failed to upload file')
    }
  })

Same here. It works when the timeout value is less than 2000 ms

The workaround is just to use https://github.com/request/request or, even better, https://github.com/request/request-promise instead of unirest.
