How can I shorten timeout times using restfb request?

Question

I am using FacebookClient class and publish function when requesting. I want to shorten timeout times. How can I do it?

Answer 1

You have to extend the DefaultWebRequstor class and override the customizeConnection method. There you can modify the connection object and set your custom timeout.

@Override
protected void customizeConnection(HttpURLConnection connection) {
  connection.setReadTimeout(YOUR_VALUE_IN_MS);
}

Afterwards you have to use this custom web requestor in the constructor of the DefaultFacebookClient class.

FacebookClient client = 
  new DefaultFacebookClient(ACCESS_TOKEN, 
                         new CustomWebRequestor(), // your requestor
                         new DefaultJsonMapper(), 
                         Version.LATEST);

And you're done. With this method you can modify the connection even further.
