Setting request timeout for JAX-RS 2.0 Client API

Question

I have written simple REST web service client class which uses the JAX-RS 2.0 client API to make REST requests. I am trying to figure out how to set a request timeout for each invocation. Here is the code for a request:

Client client = ClientBuilder.newBuilder().build(); WebTarget resourceTarget = client.target(restServiceUrl)         .path("{regsysID}/{appointmentID}/")         .resolveTemplate("regsysID", regSysId)         .resolveTemplate("appointmentID", apptId);  Invocation invocation = resourceTarget.request(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON).buildPut(null); String createSessionJson = invocation.invoke(String.class); 

Answer 1

Note: this is a new method available on JAX-RS 2.1

This is a very old post but the below code will work for both jersey and resteasy.

ClientBuilder clientBuilder = ClientBuilder.newBuilder(); clientBuilder.connectTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS); clientBuilder.readTimeout(12, TimeUnit.SECONDS); Client client = clientBuilder.build();
