We know to set HTTP timeout,

$http.get(‘path/to/service’,{timeout:5000});

For setting global HTTP timeout in angular.js. $http will not appreciate default setting it in httpProvider. With bleeding edge angular.js setting timeout is possible.

angular.module('yourapp')
 
.factory('timeoutHttpIntercept', function ($rootScope, $q) {
    return {
      'request':
function(config) {
        config.timeout
= 10000;
        return config;
      }
    };
 });

$httpProvider.interceptors.push('timeoutHttpIntercept');
