How to set request timeout and cookies in rest client

[Ravi Joshi]

Hi,

I am using RESTClient 3.2.2 CLI in one of my automation project. I want to ask below questions-

1. How to set HTTP Request Timeout? I found a method org.wiztools.restclient.GlobalOptions().setRequestTimeoutInMillis(int time), which is not effective. Is there any other way to set it?
2. Does RESTClient support cookies? Is it contain cookie manager?

Somebody please provide example for each of the above questions.

Many thanks

For #1:

Set the request timeout in the GUI (Mac: Menu > Preference > Connection). Close the GUI so that the property is written to rest client config ~/.rest-client/rest-client.properties. Now the cli tool will take this as the input.

#2:

RESTClient does not have Cookie Manager. It is stateless.

Hi Subhash,

Many thanks for the suggestions. At this time I am working with CLI version and can't use GUI, as the whole project is a automation project and everything has to be done my Java only. As a workaround may I do the following-

1. Create a file property file named "rest-client.properties" in the location System.getProperty("user.home")+"/.rest-client/"
   
2. Set a property "request-timeout-in-millis" with required value

This workaround I am planing to do before executing the RESTClient .

Is this okay?
