<p>We are using <strong>Traefik 2.1.3</strong> as <a href="https://docs.traefik.io/routing/providers/kubernetes-crd/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Kubernetes Ingress Controller</a>.<br>
Replacing an <strong>Nginx</strong> we are unable to mimic the option:</p>

<pre><code>proxy_read_timeout 60s;
</code></pre>

<p>I would have expected a <a href="https://docs.traefik.io/middlewares/overview/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Middleware</a> for this task but there isn't.</p>

<p>Is there an alternative? Ideas?</p>

<blockquote>
  <p><strong>Unfortunately there is no mention on this specific feature in Traefik documentations.</strong></p>

<p>The closest match is the <code>transport.respondingTimeouts.readTimeout</code> as I mentioned.</p>

<ul>
<li>There is a request for this explanation on Github: <a href="https://github.com/containous/traefik/issues/4580" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/containous/traefik/issues/4580</a>,</li>
</ul>

<p>It's still open but is stalled since March 2019 so It looks like it can be done but there is nowhere saying how.</p>

<p>I'd suggest you stay with Nginx or rethink your cycle strategy to fit your current needs while waiting for Traefik updates on this.</p>
