How to override open_timeout in WebSocketProtocol

[LiteWait]

Websockets legacy/server.py (WebSocketProtocol) has an init() parameter open_timeout:

open_timeout: Optional[float] = 10,

I am running Gunicorn with Uvicorn workers and I can't seem to find a way to override that value.

We have a case where we are running Django-Channels AsyncConsumers that drop into sync mode (database_sync_to_async) and are consuming all the workers from time to time. Others just trying to connect are getting a timeout because the default is 10.

Looking for a way to override this.

Thanks.

Totally surprised I am the only one running into this issue. I'll answer my own question.

Simply subclass the WebSocketProtocol and set the open_timeout in init():

    class CustomWebSocketProtocol(WebSocketProtocol):

        def __init__(self, config: Config, server_state: ServerState, app_state: Dict[str, Any],
                     _loop: Optional[asyncio.AbstractEventLoop] = None):
            super().__init__(config, server_state, app_state, _loop)
            self.open_timeout = 300

And in the config, reference it:

"ws": CustomWebSocketProtocol,
