This PR adds a helper to the
RetrySettings
for configuring a logical call timeout. This helper,logicalTimeout
, takes a single integer and applies it to each of the four existing timeout settings and sets the timeout multiplier to 1, returning an associative array for use withwith()
or via theretrySettings
call option. The result is that each RPC attempt will take no longer than the time remaining in the overall deadline calculated at the start of the first call using the given timeout. The time remaining in this overall deadline is the timeout for each RPC attempt.This helper is meant to simplify how users can think about the timeout settings, and reduce the need for
DEADLINE_EXCEEDED
to be retryable, which is an anti-pattern, but necessary for the "timeout backoff" strategy available via the existing retry/timeout logic.
