implementing timeout for WebREPL

[db4rne]

Hello,

I'm currently writing a program for esp32 that should always run. However, for debugging purposes I have a command that interrupts normal execution of my program and starts a webrepl with webrepl.start(). I want to have a timeout on this, so that after lets say an hour the esp32 resets and continues to run the normal program. Currently, I'm doing this with the watchdog like this:

    from machine import WDT
    wdt = WDT(timeout=3600000)
    import webrepl
    webrepl.start(password='1234')

I didn't wait an hour yet, but it seems to work. My question is: is there a better way of doing this? I would prefer e.g. a timeout after 10 minutes of no typing or something similar?
