OpenFeign Timeout Handling Guide

In OpenFeign, you can use feign.Retryer to handle timeouts during calls. Retryer is an interface that defines retry strategies, allowing you to implement the Retryer interface based on your own needs to handle timeouts during calls.

Additionally, you can control call timeouts by configuring Feign’s timeout settings. Specify the connection and read timeouts in feignClientConfig to ensure that calls are completed within the specified time frame.

Finally, you can catch the FeignException exception at the location where OpenFeign is called to handle timeouts, and choose to retry, return a default value, or throw an exception to handle the timeout situation.
