Question:

在调用外部接口时可能会由于延迟,造成造成Feign “Read timed out executing POST”

solution:

Feign接口调用分两层，Ribbon的调用和Hystrix调用，理论上设置Ribbon的时间即可，但是Ribbon的超时时间和Hystrix的超时时间需要结合起来，按照木桶原则最低的就是Feign的超时时间，建议最好配置超时时间一致。经过配置一下application设置后，完美解决了问题。因为第三方接口中需要3~20秒不等的时间，所以这个数值也是根据自己的业务系统情况设置的。

application.xml:

#hystrix的超时时间
hystrix:
    command:
        default:
            execution:
              timeout:
                enabled: true
              isolation:
                    thread:
                        timeoutInMilliseconds: 30000
#ribbon的超时时间
ribbon:
  ReadTimeout: 30000
  ConnectTimeout: 30000
