httsoiree
Like HTTParty, just a little less in your face.
Install
gem install httsoiree
Requirements
- Ruby 1.9.3 or higher
- multi_xml
- You like to converse with friends, perhaps over drinks.
Usage
A drop-in replacement to HTTParty - you can even keep typing HTTParty. Or, if you prefer, you can HTTSoiree.
Examples
# Use the class methods to get down to business quickly
response = HTTSoiree.get('https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions?site=stackoverflow')
puts response.body, response.code, response.message, response.headers.inspect
# Or wrap things up in your own class
class StackExchange
include HTTSoiree
base_uri 'api.stackexchange.com'
def initialize(service, page)
@options = { query: {site: service, page: page} }
end
def questions
self.class.get("/2.2/questions", @options)
end
def users
self.class.get("/2.2/users", @options)
end
end
stack_exchange = StackExchange.new("stackoverflow", 1)
puts stack_exchange.questions
puts stack_exchange.users
See the examples directory for even more goodies.
Command Line Interface
httsoiree also includes the executable httsoiree
which can be
used to query web services and examine the resulting output. By default
it will output the response as a pretty-printed Ruby object (useful for
grokking the structure of output). This can also be overridden to output
formatted XML or JSON. Execute httsoiree --help
for all the
options. Below is an example of how easy it is.
httsoiree "https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions?site=stackoverflow"
