'timeout_decorator' library doesn't support Windows

[jmwhitworth]

This is mentioned in the README.md, but I'm listing it here additionally in case anyone has any input on potential alternatives.

The timeout decorator in use causes an error that stops this from being used on Windows. This is due to the underlying timing functions. An alternative version is this fork which might work but I don't have a Windows computer to test this on: https://github.com/bitranox/wrapt_timeout_decorator

Please feel free to open a pull request if you have a Windows computer and want to tackle this.

Yes i have a windows OS, how to implement this with your module?

You could run it through Docker or WSL, both of which will allow you to run your code through the a Linux/Unix environment. Alternatively, the timeout_decorator library could be written out so it's not used, but this would hurt the functionality as it'd no longer handle timeouts nicely.
