Angular2 timeout in http post request

Question

Is it possible to make a timeout of 3 seconds in a post request ? How ?

My code for the moment

this.http.post(\'myUrl\', 
    MyData, {headers: Myhe         


        

Answer 1

I modified the answer of Thierry to get it working with the latest release. It is necessary to remove the second parameter of the timeout function. According to a discussion regarding an angular-cli issue, the timeout function always throws a TimeoutError now.

this.http.post('myUrl', 
    MyData, {headers: Myheaders})
     .timeout(3000)
     .map(res => res.json())
     .subscribe(
       data => this.ret = data,
       error => console.debug('ERROR', error),
       () => console.log('END')
     );
