Hi all,
is it possible to somehow configure the socket timeout for the Java8HttpClient? Cannot find it in the docs 😞

Currently, there’s no option to configure that directly. It should be easy enough to add though as it seems like those are just parameters to be added to the underlying HttpURLConnection.

The easiest option to unblock you is to copy the Java8HttpClient implementation (~50 lines of code) and customise for your needs.

Ah I see. Good idea, that helps. Thank you very much 🙂

I’ve made it configurable and it should be available in v4.17.1.0 (being released as we speak)

thanks 🙂
