How do I set the timeout for the on_close event?

[gbrandt]

I want to change the timeout for the on_close event from the default 60. The documentation page says it's a configured timeout but not necessarily a configurable timeout.

Can this timeout be changed within python?

[ndonkoHenri]

Yes. There's a variable for that, but I forgot where @FeodorFitsner mentioned the exact name. Maybe FLET_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT?

@FeodorFitsner please add a list of all the Flet defaults to the website. Eventually with some brief descriptions. 🙏

[FeodorFitsner]

Ah, got it, never mind! Session timeout!

[FeodorFitsner]

It's FLET_ APP_LIFETIME_MINUTES: https://github.com/flet-dev/flet/blob/main/server/config/config.go#L39

[gbrandt]

Ahh, it's in the go code....so this value cannot be changed from python?

[FeodorFitsner]

It can be. Add this at the very beginning of your program:

os.environ["FLET_APP_LIFETIME_MINUTES"] = "1440"

[ndonkoHenri]

@FeodorFitsner Please could you document all the env variables flet comes with?

[gbrandt]

I can't mark a reply as an answer, so the answer is here. An environment variable FLET_APP_LIFETIME_MINUTES is used for session close

I got it soooo wrong haha 🤕
