- [#timeout]
- = Timeouts
- By default, actions in OliveTin have a **3 second timeout** for all actions.
- This means that OliveTin will kill the action if it is running for longer than
- the timeout, which can be useful to stop commands running for a long time.
- You can set your own timeouts like this;
- [source,yaml]
- ----
- actions:
- - title: My special action
- shell: sleep 5
- timeout: 10
- ----
- NOTE: Allowing commands to run for infinity just doesn't seem to make sense, or
- at least is probably a bad case for OliveTin. Therefore, if you set a timeout
- *less than 3 seconds*, OliveTin will overwrite your Timeout and default to 3
- seconds. If you think you have a use case where a shorter (or infinite) timeout
- makes sense, please open an issue and let's discuss.
- == Check the logs
- If a action really does "time out", it will show in the logs with "(timed out)" next to the exist code;
