bash curl post request set timeout
I make a post request from url like this
curl -s -X POST http://site.com -d "data:data"
The thing is that I want to set a timeout for the url I am sending the post request to.
I tried -m 5, but then it doesn't make the request at all.
bash ubuntu curl

Just to be sure: The way you format your command in the example suggests you have tried adding the-m 5between -X and POST (-X -m 5 POST). It needs to be -X POST because POST is the argument to -X. Have you triedcurl -s -m 5 -X POST http://site.com -d "data:data"?
