Use Case
Prevent facter from hanging while waiting for a command to finish
Example: #46 Hung on stale NFS mounts
Describe the solution you would like
Allow configuration of options like timeout for an individual fact.
facter.conf could be the following:
options : {
<factname> : {
timeout: <seconds>,
},
}
Check within the fact for the timeout setting from config file
Describe alternatives you've considered
Adding timeout to the fact without config file.
But this would affect all users.
Making it configurable sound more reasonable to me.
