Net::HTTP.get_response timeout

Question

Does Net::HTTP.get_response timeout after some number of seconds?
If it does not, is there a way for me to add a timeout?

Answer 1

There doesn't seem to be any method nor attributes for either Net:HTTP.get_response and/or Net:HTTP.get_print as per latest documentation. There is a nice blog post that documents the basics for setting the timeouts though.
