ConnectTimeout query parameter ignored

[Savvkin]

Hello,
Seems like that RedisManagerPool and PooledRedisClientManager ignores ConnectTimeout query parameter, specified via connection string.

This:

var redis = new PooledRedisClientManager("redis://127.0.0.1:6379?ConnectTimeout=1000");
var dt = DateTime.UtcNow;
try { redis.GetClient(); }
catch { Debug.WriteLine($"Got timeout in {DateTime.UtcNow - dt}"); }

Outputs:

Got timeout in 00:00:10.6117882

So it's 10 seconds instead of 1 second!

However, RedisEndpoint is parsed correctly using .ToRedisEndpoint()

"redis://127.0.0.1:6379?ConnectTimeout=100".ToRedisEndpoint()

but RedisManagerPool and PooledRedisClientManager don't accept it.

Thanks.

This is expected behavior as the DefaultRetryTimeout is 10 seconds so the Redis Client should continue to retry failed connections for up to 10 seconds.

But Redis Connection Strings section says that

Any additional configuration can be specified as QueryString parameters. The full list of options that can be specified include:
ConnectTimeout | int | Timeout in ms for making a TCP Socket connection

So, I expect that the following connection string should override DefaultRetryTimeout and set ConnectTimeout to one second :

redis://clientid:password@localhost:6380?ConnectTimeout=1000

Theres nothing to override: ConnectTimeout specifies how long it should wait to make a single connection, Retry Timeout specifies how long it should keep retrying to make a successful connection or operation, etc.

How do I get my code working, as I expect, then?
What do I need to specify in connection string to make redis.GetClient(); throw timeout exception after 1 second instead of 10 seconds when Redis in not available or gone down?

redis://clientid:password@localhost:6380?ConnectTimeout=1000&RetryTimeout=1000

Disable Automatic retries?

redis://clientid:password@localhost:6380?ConnectTimeout=1000&RetryTimeout=0

Which you can do globally with:

RedisConfig.DefaultRetryTimeout = 0;
