You should do the same thing. Kotlin has little difference in this aspect comparing to Java. Just call `OkHttp.Builder`, configure it with needed timeouts and build an object. The code must be the same as for Java. — andrei_zaitcev, Jan 05 '18 at 21:32
I khow..but this link for java(android).i want for android kotlin language — yahya, Jan 05 '18 at 21:33
val test = OkHttp.Builder.....but test not method for set timeout — yahya, Jan 05 '18 at 21:35
The language doesn't matter in this case. Just do `val client = OkHttp.Builder().connectionTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS).writeTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS).build()` — andrei_zaitcev, Jan 05 '18 at 21:49
@andrei_zaitcev I don't know to use (Builder). thank you for help. your solution works for me — yahya, Jan 05 '18 at 22:03
The problem with the question you linked is not that it is Java and you are using Kotlin but that the accepted answer is for OkHttp2 - but [other answers are for OkHttp3](https://stackoverflow.com/a/34762061/3755692) — msrd0, Jan 05 '18 at 23:00

A Builder is required, there are no setters available. With OkHttp 3.9.1 you can do this:

val client = OkHttpClient.Builder()
    .connectTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .writeTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .readTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .build()

Not much different than the accepted answer, but it seems it is best to return the same OkHttpClient to avoid memory leaks.

sealed class ClientBuilder {

    companion object {
        val plainClient: OkHttpClient by lazy {
             OkHttpClient
                .Builder()
                .connectTimeout(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
                .readTimeout(3, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
                .writeTimeout(3, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
                .build()
        }
    }

    fun client() : OkHttpClient {
        return plainClient
    }
}
