UrlFetcher
This gem provides a class that will fetch a URL response and save the body to a Tempfile. This can be useful if you are fetching large HTTP objects so you don't need to read them into memory all at once. The response body is exposed as a stream.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'url_fetcher'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install url_fetcher
Usage
response = UrlFetcher.new("http://example.com/large_file")
response.body # Returns a stream to a the body from a Tempfile on disk.
