|
+
A simple HTTP and REST client for Ruby, inspired by the Sinatra's microframework style
|
9
|
+
of specifying actions: get, put, post, delete.
|

|
+
|

* Main page: https://github.com/rest-client/rest-client

### New mailing list
|
15
|
+
|
16
|
+
We have a new email list for announcements, hosted by Groups.io.
|

|
+
|

|
+
* Subscribe on the web: https://groups.io/g/rest-client

|
23

|
+
The old Librelist mailing list is *defunct*, as Librelist appears to be broken
|
25
|
+
and not accepting new mail. The old archives are still up, but have been
|
26
|
+
imported into the new list archives as well.
|
27
|
+
http://librelist.com/browser/rest.client
|
28
|
+
|

|
+
## Requirements
|
30
|
+
|
31
|
+
MRI Ruby 2.0 and newer are supported. Alternative interpreters compatible with
|
32
|
+
2.0+ should work as well.
|
33
|
+
|
34
|
+
Earlier Ruby versions such as 1.8.7, 1.9.2, and 1.9.3 are no longer supported. These
|
35
|
+
versions no longer have any official support, and do not receive security
|
36
|
+
updates.
|
37
|
+
|
38
|
+
The rest-client gem depends on these other gems for usage at runtime:
|
39
|
+
|
40
|
+
* [mime-types](http://rubygems.org/gems/mime-types)
|
41
|
+
* [netrc](http://rubygems.org/gems/netrc)
|
42
|
+
* [http-accept](https://rubygems.org/gems/http-accept)
|
43
|
+
* [http-cookie](https://rubygems.org/gems/http-cookie)
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
There are also several development dependencies. It's recommended to use
|
46
|
+
[bundler](http://bundler.io/) to manage these dependencies for hacking on
|
47
|
+
rest-client.
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
### Upgrading to rest-client 2.0 from 1.x
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
Users are encouraged to upgrade to rest-client 2.0, which cleans up a number of
|
52
|
+
API warts and wrinkles, making rest-client generally more useful. Usage is
|
53
|
+
largely compatible, so many applications will be able to upgrade with no
|
54
|
+
changes.
|
55
|
+
|
56
|
+
Overview of significant changes:
|
57
|
+
|
58
|
+
* requires Ruby >= 2.0
|
59
|
+
* `RestClient::Response` objects are a subclass of `String` rather than a
|
60
|
+
Frankenstein monster. And `#body` or `#to_s` return a true `String` object.
|
61
|
+
* cleanup of exception classes, including new `RestClient::Exceptions::Timeout`
|
62
|
+
* improvements to handling of redirects: responses and history are properly
|
63
|
+
exposed
|
64
|
+
* major changes to cookie support: cookie jars are used for browser-like
|
65
|
+
behavior throughout
|
66
|
+
* encoding: Content-Type charset response headers are used to automatically set
|
67
|
+
the encoding of the response string
|
68
|
+
* HTTP params: handling of GET/POST params is more consistent and sophisticated
|
69
|
+
for deeply nested hash objects, and `ParamsArray` can be used to pass ordered
|
70
|
+
params
|
71
|
+
* improved proxy support with per-request proxy configuration, plus the ability
|
72
|
+
to disable proxies set by environment variables
|
73
|
+
* default request headers: rest-client sets `Accept: */*` and
|
74
|
+
`User-Agent: rest-client/...`
|
75
|
+
|
76
|
+
See [history.md](./history.md) for a more complete description of changes.
|
77
|
+
|
78
|
+
## Usage: Raw URL
|
79
|
+
|
80
|
+
Basic usage:
|
81
|
+
|
82
|
+
```ruby
|
83
|
+
require 'rest-client'
|
84
|
+
|
85
|
+
RestClient.get(url, headers={})
|
86
|
+
|
87
|
+
RestClient.post(url, payload, headers={})
|
88
|
+
```
|
89
|
+
|
90
|
+
In the high level helpers, only POST, PATCH, and PUT take a payload argument.
|
91
|
+
To pass a payload with other HTTP verbs or to pass more advanced options, use
|
92
|
+
`RestClient::Request.execute` instead.
|
93
|
+
|
94
|
+
More detailed examples:
|
95
|
+
|
96
|
+
```ruby
|
97
|
+
require 'rest-client'
|
98
|
+
|
99
|
+
RestClient.get 'http://example.com/resource'
|
100
|
+
|
101
|
+
RestClient.get 'http://example.com/resource', {params: {id: 50, 'foo' => 'bar'}}
|
102
|
+
|
103
|
+
RestClient.get 'https://user:password@example.com/private/resource', {accept: :json}
|
104
|
+
|
105
|
+
RestClient.post 'http://example.com/resource', {param1: 'one', nested: {param2: 'two'}}
|
106
|
+
|
107
|
+
RestClient.post "http://example.com/resource", {'x' => 1}.to_json, {content_type: :json, accept: :json}
|
108
|
+
|
109
|
+
RestClient.delete 'http://example.com/resource'
|
110
|
+
|
111
|
+
>> response = RestClient.get 'http://example.com/resource'
|
112
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "<!doctype h...">
|
113
|
+
>> response.code
|
114
|
+
=> 200
|
115
|
+
>> response.cookies
|
116
|
+
=> {"Foo"=>"BAR", "QUUX"=>"QUUUUX"}
|
117
|
+
>> response.headers
|
118
|
+
=> {:content_type=>"text/html; charset=utf-8", :cache_control=>"private" ... }
|
119
|
+
>> response.body
|
120
|
+
=> "<!doctype html>\n<html>\n<head>\n <title>Example Domain</title>\n\n ..."
|
121
|
+
|
122
|
+
RestClient.post( url,
|
123
|
+
{
|
124
|
+
:transfer => {
|
125
|
+
:path => '/foo/bar',
|
126
|
+
:owner => 'that_guy',
|
127
|
+
:group => 'those_guys'
|
128
|
+
},
|
129
|
+
:upload => {
|
130
|
+
:file => File.new(path, 'rb')
|
131
|
+
}
|
132
|
+
})
|
133
|
+
```
|
134
|
+
## Passing advanced options
|
135
|
+
|
136
|
+
The top level helper methods like RestClient.get accept a headers hash as
|
137
|
+
their last argument and don't allow passing more complex options. But these
|
138
|
+
helpers are just thin wrappers around `RestClient::Request.execute`.
|
139
|
+
|
140
|
+
```ruby
|
141
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
142
|
+
timeout: 10)
|
143
|
+
|
144
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
145
|
+
ssl_ca_file: 'myca.pem',
|
146
|
+
ssl_ciphers: 'AESGCM:!aNULL')
|
147
|
+
```
|
148
|
+
You can also use this to pass a payload for HTTP verbs like DELETE, where the
|
149
|
+
`RestClient.delete` helper doesn't accept a payload.
|
150
|
+
|
151
|
+
```ruby
|
152
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :delete, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
153
|
+
payload: 'foo', headers: {myheader: 'bar'})
|
154
|
+
```
|
155
|
+
|
156
|
+
Due to unfortunate choices in the original API, the params used to populate the
|
157
|
+
query string are actually taken out of the headers hash. So if you want to pass
|
158
|
+
both the params hash and more complex options, use the special key
|
159
|
+
`:params` in the headers hash. This design may change in a future major
|
160
|
+
release.
|
161
|
+
|
162
|
+
```ruby
|
163
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
164
|
+
timeout: 10, headers: {params: {foo: 'bar'}})
|
165
|
+
|
166
|
+
➔ GET http://example.com/resource?foo=bar
|
167
|
+
```
|
168
|
+
|
169
|
+
## Multipart
|
170
|
+
|
171
|
+
Yeah, that's right! This does multipart sends for you!
|
172
|
+
|
173
|
+
```ruby
|
174
|
+
RestClient.post '/data', :myfile => File.new("/path/to/image.jpg", 'rb')
|
175
|
+
```
|
176
|
+
|
177
|
+
This does two things for you:
|
178
|
+
|
179
|
+
- Auto-detects that you have a File value sends it as multipart
|
180
|
+
- Auto-detects the mime of the file and sets it in the HEAD of the payload for each entry
|
181
|
+
|
182
|
+
If you are sending params that do not contain a File object but the payload needs to be multipart then:
|
183
|
+
|
184
|
+
```ruby
|
185
|
+
RestClient.post '/data', {:foo => 'bar', :multipart => true}
|
186
|
+
```
|
187
|
+
|
188
|
+
## Usage: ActiveResource-Style
|
189
|
+
|
190
|
+
```ruby
|
191
|
+
resource = RestClient::Resource.new 'http://example.com/resource'
|
192
|
+
resource.get
|
193
|
+
|
194
|
+
private_resource = RestClient::Resource.new 'https://example.com/private/resource', 'user', 'pass'
|
195
|
+
private_resource.put File.read('pic.jpg'), :content_type => 'image/jpg'
|
196
|
+
```
|
197
|
+
|
198
|
+
See RestClient::Resource module docs for details.
|
199
|
+
|
200
|
+
## Usage: Resource Nesting
|
201
|
+
|
202
|
+
```ruby
|
203
|
+
site = RestClient::Resource.new('http://example.com')
|
204
|
+
site['posts/1/comments'].post 'Good article.', :content_type => 'text/plain'
|
205
|
+
```
|
206
|
+
See `RestClient::Resource` docs for details.
|
207
|
+
|
208
|
+
## Exceptions (see http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html)
|
209
|
+
|
210
|
+
- for result codes between `200` and `207`, a `RestClient::Response` will be returned
|
211
|
+
- for result codes `301`, `302` or `307`, the redirection will be followed if the request is a `GET` or a `HEAD`
|
212
|
+
- for result code `303`, the redirection will be followed and the request transformed into a `GET`
|
213
|
+
- for other cases, a `RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse` holding the Response will be raised; a specific exception class will be thrown for known error codes
|
214
|
+
- call `.response` on the exception to get the server's response
|
215
|
+
|
216
|
+
```ruby
|
217
|
+
>> RestClient.get 'http://example.com/nonexistent'
|
218
|
+
Exception: RestClient::NotFound: 404 Not Found
|
219
|
+
|
220
|
+
>> begin
|
221
|
+
RestClient.get 'http://example.com/nonexistent'
|
222
|
+
rescue RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse => e
|
223
|
+
e.response
|
224
|
+
end
|
225
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 404 "<!doctype h...">
|
226
|
+
```
|
227
|
+
|
228
|
+
### Other exceptions
|
229
|
+
|
230
|
+
While most exceptions have been collected under `RestClient::RequestFailed` aka
|
231
|
+
`RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse`, there are a few quirky exceptions that
|
232
|
+
have been kept for backwards compatibility.
|
233
|
+
|
234
|
+
RestClient will propagate up exceptions like socket errors without modification:
|
235
|
+
|
236
|
+
```ruby
|
237
|
+
>> RestClient.get 'http://localhost:12345'
|
238
|
+
Exception: Errno::ECONNREFUSED: Connection refused - connect(2) for "localhost" port 12345
|
239
|
+
```
|
240
|
+
|
241
|
+
RestClient handles a few specific error cases separately in order to give
|
242
|
+
better error messages. These will hopefully be cleaned up in a future major
|
243
|
+
release.
|
244
|
+
|
245
|
+
`RestClient::ServerBrokeConnection` is translated from `EOFError` to give a
|
246
|
+
better error message.
|
247
|
+
|
248
|
+
`RestClient::SSLCertificateNotVerified` is raised when HTTPS validation fails.
|
249
|
+
Other `OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError` errors are raised as is.
|
250
|
+
|
251
|
+
### Redirection
|
252
|
+
|
253
|
+
By default, rest-client will follow HTTP 30x redirection requests.
|
254
|
+
|
255
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ `RestClient::Response` exposes a `#history` method that returns
|
256
|
+
a list of each response received in a redirection chain.
|
257
|
+
|
258
|
+
```ruby
|
259
|
+
>> r = RestClient.get('http://httpbin.org/redirect/2')
|
260
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "{\n \"args\":...">
|
261
|
+
|
262
|
+
# see each response in the redirect chain
|
263
|
+
>> r.history
|
264
|
+
=> [<RestClient::Response 302 "<!DOCTYPE H...">, <RestClient::Response 302 "">]
|
265
|
+
|
266
|
+
# see each requested URL
|
267
|
+
>> r.request.url
|
268
|
+
=> "http://httpbin.org/get"
|
269
|
+
>> r.history.map {|x| x.request.url}
|
270
|
+
=> ["http://httpbin.org/redirect/2", "http://httpbin.org/relative-redirect/1"]
|
271
|
+
```
|
272
|
+
|
273
|
+
#### Manually following redirection
|
274
|
+
|
275
|
+
To disable automatic redirection, set `:max_redirects => 0`.
|
276
|
+
|
277
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ Prior versions of rest-client would raise
|
278
|
+
`RestClient::MaxRedirectsReached`, with no easy way to access the server's
|
279
|
+
response. In 2.0, rest-client raises the normal
|
280
|
+
`RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse` as it would with any other non-HTTP-20x
|
281
|
+
response.
|
282
|
+
|
283
|
+
```ruby
|
284
|
+
>> RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://httpbin.org/redirect/1')
|
285
|
+
=> RestClient::Response 200 "{\n "args":..."
|
286
|
+
|
287
|
+
>> RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://httpbin.org/redirect/1', max_redirects: 0)
|
288
|
+
RestClient::Found: 302 Found
|
289
|
+
```
|
290
|
+
|
291
|
+
To manually follow redirection, you can call `Response#follow_redirection`. Or
|
292
|
+
you could of course inspect the result and choose custom behavior.
|
293
|
+
|
294
|
+
```ruby
|
295
|
+
>> RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://httpbin.org/redirect/1', max_redirects: 0)
|
296
|
+
RestClient::Found: 302 Found
|
297
|
+
>> begin
|
298
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://httpbin.org/redirect/1', max_redirects: 0)
|
299
|
+
rescue RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse => err
|
300
|
+
end
|
301
|
+
>> err
|
302
|
+
=> #<RestClient::Found: 302 Found>
|
303
|
+
>> err.response
|
304
|
+
=> RestClient::Response 302 "<!DOCTYPE H..."
|
305
|
+
>> err.response.headers[:location]
|
306
|
+
=> "/get"
|
307
|
+
>> err.response.follow_redirection
|
308
|
+
=> RestClient::Response 200 "{\n "args":..."
|
309
|
+
```
|
310
|
+
|
311
|
+
## Result handling
|
312
|
+
|
313
|
+
The result of a `RestClient::Request` is a `RestClient::Response` object.
|
314
|
+
|
315
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ `RestClient::Response` objects are now a subclass of `String`.
|
316
|
+
Previously, they were a real String object with response functionality mixed
|
317
|
+
in, which was very confusing to work with.
|
318
|
+
|
319
|
+
Response objects have several useful methods. (See the class rdoc for more details.)
|
320
|
+
|
321
|
+
- `Response#code`: The HTTP response code
|
322
|
+
- `Response#body`: The response body as a string. (AKA .to_s)
|
323
|
+
- `Response#headers`: A hash of HTTP response headers
|
324
|
+
- `Response#raw_headers`: A hash of HTTP response headers as unprocessed arrays
|
325
|
+
- `Response#cookies`: A hash of HTTP cookies set by the server
|
326
|
+
- `Response#cookie_jar`: <em>New in 1.8</em> An HTTP::CookieJar of cookies
|
327
|
+
- `Response#request`: The RestClient::Request object used to make the request
|
328
|
+
- `Response#history`: <em>New in 2.0</em> If redirection was followed, a list of prior Response objects
|
329
|
+
|
330
|
+
```ruby
|
331
|
+
RestClient.get('http://example.com')
|
332
|
+
➔ <RestClient::Response 200 "<!doctype h...">
|
333
|
+
|
334
|
+
begin
|
335
|
+
RestClient.get('http://example.com/notfound')
|
336
|
+
rescue RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse => err
|
337
|
+
err.response
|
338
|
+
end
|
339
|
+
➔ <RestClient::Response 404 "<!doctype h...">
|
340
|
+
```
|
341
|
+
|
342
|
+
### Response callbacks, error handling
|
343
|
+
|
344
|
+
A block can be passed to the RestClient method. This block will then be called with the Response.
|
345
|
+
Response.return! can be called to invoke the default response's behavior.
|
346
|
+
|
347
|
+
```ruby
|
348
|
+
# Don't raise exceptions but return the response
|
349
|
+
>> RestClient.get('http://example.com/nonexistent') {|response, request, result| response }
|
350
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 404 "<!doctype h...">
|
351
|
+
```
|
352
|
+
|
353
|
+
```ruby
|
354
|
+
# Manage a specific error code
|
355
|
+
RestClient.get('http://example.com/resource') { |response, request, result, &block|
|
356
|
+
case response.code
|
357
|
+
when 200
|
358
|
+
p "It worked !"
|
359
|
+
response
|
360
|
+
when 423
|
361
|
+
raise SomeCustomExceptionIfYouWant
|
362
|
+
else
|
363
|
+
response.return!(&block)
|
364
|
+
end
|
365
|
+
}
|
366
|
+
```
|
367
|
+
|
368
|
+
But note that it may be more straightforward to use exceptions to handle
|
369
|
+
different HTTP error response cases:
|
370
|
+
|
371
|
+
```ruby
|
372
|
+
begin
|
373
|
+
resp = RestClient.get('http://example.com/resource')
|
374
|
+
rescue RestClient::Unauthorized, RestClient::Forbidden => err
|
375
|
+
puts 'Access denied'
|
376
|
+
return err.response
|
377
|
+
rescue RestClient::ImATeapot => err
|
378
|
+
puts 'The server is a teapot! # RFC 2324'
|
379
|
+
return err.response
|
380
|
+
else
|
381
|
+
puts 'It worked!'
|
382
|
+
return resp
|
383
|
+
end
|
384
|
+
```
|
385
|
+
|
386
|
+
For GET and HEAD requests, rest-client automatically follows redirection. For
|
387
|
+
other HTTP verbs, call `.follow_redirection` on the response object (works both
|
388
|
+
in block form and in exception form).
|
389
|
+
|
390
|
+
```ruby
|
391
|
+
# Follow redirections for all request types and not only for get and head
|
392
|
+
# RFC : "If the 301, 302 or 307 status code is received in response to a request other than GET or HEAD,
|
393
|
+
# the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the request unless it can be confirmed by the user,
|
394
|
+
# since this might change the conditions under which the request was issued."
|
395
|
+
|
396
|
+
# block style
|
397
|
+
RestClient.post('http://example.com/redirect', 'body') { |response, request, result|
|
398
|
+
case response.code
|
399
|
+
when 301, 302, 307
|
400
|
+
response.follow_redirection
|
401
|
+
else
|
402
|
+
response.return!
|
403
|
+
end
|
404
|
+
}
|
405
|
+
|
406
|
+
# exception style by explicit classes
|
407
|
+
begin
|
408
|
+
RestClient.post('http://example.com/redirect', 'body')
|
409
|
+
rescue RestClient::MovedPermanently,
|
410
|
+
RestClient::Found,
|
411
|
+
RestClient::TemporaryRedirect => err
|
412
|
+
err.response.follow_redirection
|
413
|
+
end
|
414
|
+
|
415
|
+
# exception style by response code
|
416
|
+
begin
|
417
|
+
RestClient.post('http://example.com/redirect', 'body')
|
418
|
+
rescue RestClient::ExceptionWithResponse => err
|
419
|
+
case err.http_code
|
420
|
+
when 301, 302, 307
|
421
|
+
err.response.follow_redirection
|
422
|
+
else
|
423
|
+
raise
|
424
|
+
end
|
425
|
+
end
|
426
|
+
```
|
427
|
+
|
428
|
+
## Non-normalized URIs
|
429
|
+
|
430
|
+
If you need to normalize URIs, e.g. to work with International Resource Identifiers (IRIs),
|
431
|
+
use the addressable gem (http://addressable.rubyforge.org/api/) in your code:
|
432
|
+
|
433
|
+
```ruby
|
434
|
+
require 'addressable/uri'
|
435
|
+
RestClient.get(Addressable::URI.parse("http://www.詹姆斯.com/").normalize.to_str)
|
436
|
+
```
|
437
|
+
|
438
|
+
## Lower-level access
|
439
|
+
|
440
|
+
For cases not covered by the general API, you can use the `RestClient::Request` class, which provides a lower-level API.
|
441
|
+
|
442
|
+
You can:
|
443
|
+
|
444
|
+
- specify ssl parameters
|
445
|
+
- override cookies
|
446
|
+
- manually handle the response (e.g. to operate on it as a stream rather than reading it all into memory)
|
447
|
+
|
448
|
+
See `RestClient::Request`'s documentation for more information.
|
449
|
+
|
450
|
+
### Streaming request payload
|
451
|
+
|
452
|
+
RestClient will try to stream any file-like payload rather than reading it into
|
453
|
+
memory. This happens through `RestClient::Payload::Streamed`, which is
|
454
|
+
automatically called internally by `RestClient::Payload.generate` on anything
|
455
|
+
with a `read` method.
|
456
|
+
|
457
|
+
```ruby
|
458
|
+
>> r = RestClient.put('http://httpbin.org/put', File.open('/tmp/foo.txt', 'r'),
|
459
|
+
content_type: 'text/plain')
|
460
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "{\n \"args\":...">
|
461
|
+
```
|
462
|
+
|
463
|
+
In Multipart requests, RestClient will also stream file handles passed as Hash
|
464
|
+
(or __new in 2.1__ ParamsArray).
|
465
|
+
|
466
|
+
```ruby
|
467
|
+
>> r = RestClient.put('http://httpbin.org/put',
|
468
|
+
{file_a: File.open('a.txt', 'r'),
|
469
|
+
file_b: File.open('b.txt', 'r')})
|
470
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "{\n \"args\":...">
|
471
|
+
|
472
|
+
# received by server as two file uploads with multipart/form-data
|
473
|
+
>> JSON.parse(r)['files'].keys
|
474
|
+
=> ['file_a', 'file_b']
|
475
|
+
```
|
476
|
+
|
477
|
+
### Streaming responses
|
478
|
+
|
479
|
+
Normally, when you use `RestClient.get` or the lower level
|
480
|
+
`RestClient::Request.execute method: :get` to retrieve data, the entire
|
481
|
+
response is buffered in memory and returned as the response to the call.
|
482
|
+
|
483
|
+
However, if you are retrieving a large amount of data, for example a Docker
|
484
|
+
image, an iso, or any other large file, you may want to stream the response
|
485
|
+
directly to disk rather than loading it in memory. If you have a very large
|
486
|
+
file, it may become *impossible* to load it into memory.
|
487
|
+
|
488
|
+
There are two main ways to do this:
|
489
|
+
|
490
|
+
#### `raw_response`, saves into Tempfile
|
491
|
+
|
492
|
+
If you pass `raw_response: true` to `RestClient::Request.execute`, it will save
|
493
|
+
the response body to a temporary file (using `Tempfile`) and return a
|
494
|
+
`RestClient::RawResponse` object rather than a `RestClient::Response`.
|
495
|
+
|
496
|
+
Note that the tempfile created by `Tempfile.new` will be in `Dir.tmpdir`
|
497
|
+
(usually `/tmp/`), which you can override to store temporary files in a
|
498
|
+
different location. This file will be unlinked when it is dereferenced.
|
499
|
+
|
500
|
+
If logging is enabled, this will also print download progress.
|
501

+
__New in 2.1:__ Customize the interval with `:stream_log_percent` (defaults to
|
502
|
+
10 for printing a message every 10% complete).
|
503
|
+
|
504
|
+
For example:
|
505
|
+
|
506
|
+
```ruby
|
507
|
+
>> raw = RestClient::Request.execute(
|
508
|

|
509

|
513
|

=> 1554186240
|
514
|
+
>> raw.file.path
|
515
|

=> "/tmp/rest-client.20170522-5346-1pptjm1"
|
516
|
+
raw.file.path
|
517
|
+
=> "/tmp/rest-client.20170522-5346-1pptjm1"
|
518
|
+
|
519
|
+
>> require 'digest/sha1'
|
520
|
+
>> Digest::SHA1.file(raw.file.path).hexdigest
|
521

|
+
#### `block_response`, receives raw Net::HTTPResponse
|
525
|
+
|
526
|
+
If you want to stream the data from the response to a file as it comes, rather
|
527
|
+
than entirely in memory, you can also pass `RestClient::Request.execute` a
|
528
|
+
parameter `:block_response` to which you pass a block/proc. This block receives
|
529
|
+
the raw unmodified Net::HTTPResponse object from Net::HTTP, which you can use
|
530
|
+
to stream directly to a file as each chunk is received.
|
531
|
+
|
532
|
+
Note that this bypasses all the usual HTTP status code handling, so you will
|
533
|
+
want to do you own checking for HTTP 20x response codes, redirects, etc.
|
534
|
+
|
535
|
+
The following is an example:
|
536
|
+
|
537
|
+
````ruby
|
538
|
+
File.open('/some/output/file', 'w') {|f|
|
539
|
+
block = proc { |response|
|
540
|
+
response.read_body do |chunk|
|
541
|
+
f.write chunk
|
542
|
+
end
|
543
|
+
}
|
544
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get,
|
545
|
+
url: 'http://example.com/some/really/big/file.img',
|
546
|
+
block_response: block)
|
547
|
+
}
|
548
|
+
````
|
549
|
+
|
550
|
+
## Shell
|
551
|
+
|
552
|
+
The restclient shell command gives an IRB session with RestClient already loaded:
|
553
|
+
|
554
|
+
```ruby
|
555
|
+
$ restclient
|
556
|
+
>> RestClient.get 'http://example.com'
|
557
|
+
```
|
558
|
+
|
559
|
+
Specify a URL argument for get/post/put/delete on that resource:
|
560
|
+
|
561
|
+
```ruby
|
562
|
+
$ restclient http://example.com
|
563
|
+
>> put '/resource', 'data'
|
564
|
+
```
|
565
|
+
|
566
|
+
Add a user and password for authenticated resources:
|
567
|
+
|
568
|
+
```ruby
|
569
|
+
$ restclient https://example.com user pass
|
570
|
+
>> delete '/private/resource'
|
571
|
+
```
|
572
|
+
|
573
|
+
Create ~/.restclient for named sessions:
|
574
|
+
|
575
|
+
```ruby
|
576
|
+
sinatra:
|
577
|
+
url: http://localhost:4567
|
578
|
+
rack:
|
579
|
+
url: http://localhost:9292
|
580
|
+
private_site:
|
581
|
+
url: http://example.com
|
582
|
+
username: user
|
583
|
+
password: pass
|
584
|
+
```
|
585
|
+
|
586
|
+
Then invoke:
|
587
|
+
|
588
|
+
```ruby
|
589
|
+
$ restclient private_site
|
590
|
+
```
|
591
|
+
|
592
|
+
Use as a one-off, curl-style:
|
593
|
+
|
594
|
+
```ruby
|
595
|
+
$ restclient get http://example.com/resource > output_body
|
596
|
+
|
597
|
+
$ restclient put http://example.com/resource < input_body
|
598
|
+
```
|
599
|
+
|
600
|
+
## Logging
|
601
|
+
|
602
|
+
To enable logging globally you can:
|
603
|
+
|
604
|
+
- set RestClient.log with a Ruby Logger
|
605
|
+
|
606
|
+
```ruby
|
607
|
+
RestClient.log = STDOUT
|
608
|
+
```
|
609
|
+
|
610
|
+
- or set an environment variable to avoid modifying the code (in this case you can use a file name, "stdout" or "stderr"):
|
611
|
+
|
612
|
+
```ruby
|
613
|
+
$ RESTCLIENT_LOG=stdout path/to/my/program
|
614
|
+
```
|
615
|
+
|
616
|
+
You can also set individual loggers when instantiating a Resource or making an
|
617
|
+
individual request:
|
618
|
+
|
619
|
+
```ruby
|
620
|
+
resource = RestClient::Resource.new 'http://example.com/resource', log: Logger.new(STDOUT)
|
621
|
+
```
|
622
|
+
|
623
|
+
```ruby
|
624
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/foo', log: Logger.new(STDERR))
|
625
|
+
```
|
626
|
+
|
627
|
+
All options produce logs like this:
|
628
|
+
|
629
|
+
```ruby
|
630
|
+
RestClient.get "http://some/resource"
|
631
|
+
# => 200 OK | text/html 250 bytes
|
632
|
+
RestClient.put "http://some/resource", "payload"
|
633
|
+
# => 401 Unauthorized | application/xml 340 bytes
|
634
|
+
```
|
635
|
+
|
636
|
+
Note that these logs are valid Ruby, so you can paste them into the `restclient`
|
637
|
+
shell or a script to replay your sequence of rest calls.
|
638
|
+
|
639
|
+
## Proxy
|
640
|
+
|
641
|
+
All calls to RestClient, including Resources, will use the proxy specified by
|
642
|
+
`RestClient.proxy`:
|
643
|
+
|
644
|
+
```ruby
|
645
|
+
RestClient.proxy = "http://proxy.example.com/"
|
646
|
+
RestClient.get "http://some/resource"
|
647
|
+
# => response from some/resource as proxied through proxy.example.com
|
648
|
+
```
|
649
|
+
|
650
|
+
Often the proxy URL is set in an environment variable, so you can do this to
|
651
|
+
use whatever proxy the system is configured to use:
|
652
|
+
|
653
|
+
```ruby
|
654
|
+
RestClient.proxy = ENV['http_proxy']
|
655
|
+
```
|
656
|
+
|
657
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ Specify a per-request proxy by passing the :proxy option to
|
658
|
+
RestClient::Request. This will override any proxies set by environment variable
|
659
|
+
or by the global `RestClient.proxy` value.
|
660
|
+
|
661
|
+
```ruby
|
662
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com',
|
663
|
+
proxy: 'http://proxy.example.com')
|
664
|
+
# => single request proxied through the proxy
|
665
|
+
```
|
666
|
+
|
667
|
+
This can be used to disable the use of a proxy for a particular request.
|
668
|
+
|
669
|
+
```ruby
|
670
|
+
RestClient.proxy = "http://proxy.example.com/"
|
671
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com', proxy: nil)
|
672
|
+
# => single request sent without a proxy
|
673
|
+
```
|
674
|
+
|
675
|
+
## Query parameters
|
676
|
+
|
677
|
+
Rest-client can render a hash as HTTP query parameters for GET/HEAD/DELETE
|
678
|
+
requests or as HTTP post data in `x-www-form-urlencoded` format for POST
|
679
|
+
requests.
|
680
|
+
|
681
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ Even though there is no standard specifying how this should
|
682
|
+
work, rest-client follows a similar convention to the one used by Rack / Rails
|
683
|
+
servers for handling arrays, nested hashes, and null values.
|
684
|
+
|
685
|
+
The implementation in
|
686
|
+
[./lib/rest-client/utils.rb](RestClient::Utils.encode_query_string)
|
687
|
+
closely follows
|
688
|
+
[Rack::Utils.build_nested_query](http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/rack/Rack/Utils#build_nested_query-class_method),
|
689
|
+
but treats empty arrays and hashes as `nil`. (Rack drops them entirely, which
|
690
|
+
is confusing behavior.)
|
691
|
+
|
692
|
+
If you don't like this behavior and want more control, just serialize params
|
693
|
+
yourself (e.g. with `URI.encode_www_form`) and add the query string to the URL
|
694
|
+
directly for GET parameters or pass the payload as a string for POST requests.
|
695
|
+
|
696
|
+
Basic GET params:
|
697
|
+
```ruby
|
698
|
+
RestClient.get('https://httpbin.org/get', params: {foo: 'bar', baz: 'qux'})
|
699
|
+
# GET "https://httpbin.org/get?foo=bar&baz=qux"
|
700
|
+
```
|
701
|
+
|
702
|
+
Basic `x-www-form-urlencoded` POST params:
|
703
|
+
```ruby
|
704
|
+
>> r = RestClient.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {foo: 'bar', baz: 'qux'})
|
705
|
+
# POST "https://httpbin.org/post", data: "foo=bar&baz=qux"
|
706
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "{\n \"args\":...">
|
707
|
+
>> JSON.parse(r.body)
|
708
|
+
=> {"args"=>{},
|
709
|
+
"data"=>"",
|
710
|
+
"files"=>{},
|
711
|
+
"form"=>{"baz"=>"qux", "foo"=>"bar"},
|
712
|
+
"headers"=>
|
713
|
+
{"Accept"=>"*/*",
|
714
|
+
"Accept-Encoding"=>"gzip, deflate",
|
715
|
+
"Content-Length"=>"15",
|
716
|
+
"Content-Type"=>"application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
|
717
|
+
"Host"=>"httpbin.org"},
|
718
|
+
"json"=>nil,
|
719
|
+
"url"=>"https://httpbin.org/post"}
|
720
|
+
```
|
721
|
+
|
722
|
+
JSON payload: rest-client does not speak JSON natively, so serialize your
|
723
|
+
payload to a string before passing it to rest-client.
|
724
|
+
```ruby
|
725
|
+
>> payload = {'name' => 'newrepo', 'description': 'A new repo'}
|
726
|
+
>> RestClient.post('https://api.github.com/user/repos', payload.to_json, content_type: :json)
|
727
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 201 "{\"id\":75149...">
|
728
|
+
```
|
729
|
+
|
730
|
+
Advanced GET params (arrays):
|
731
|
+
```ruby
|
732
|
+
>> r = RestClient.get('https://http-params.herokuapp.com/get', params: {foo: [1,2,3]})
|
733
|
+
# GET "https://http-params.herokuapp.com/get?foo[]=1&foo[]=2&foo[]=3"
|
734
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "Method: GET...">
|
735
|
+
>> puts r.body
|
736
|
+
query_string: "foo[]=1&foo[]=2&foo[]=3"
|
737
|
+
decoded: "foo[]=1&foo[]=2&foo[]=3"
|
738
|
+
|
739
|
+
GET:
|
740
|
+
{"foo"=>["1", "2", "3"]}
|
741
|
+
```
|
742
|
+
|
743
|
+
Advanced GET params (nested hashes):
|
744
|
+
```ruby
|
745
|
+
>> r = RestClient.get('https://http-params.herokuapp.com/get', params: {outer: {foo: 123, bar: 456}})
|
746
|
+
# GET "https://http-params.herokuapp.com/get?outer[foo]=123&outer[bar]=456"
|
747
|
+
=> <RestClient::Response 200 "Method: GET...">
|
748
|
+
>> puts r.body
|
749
|
+
...
|
750
|
+
query_string: "outer[foo]=123&outer[bar]=456"
|
751
|
+
decoded: "outer[foo]=123&outer[bar]=456"
|
752
|
+
|
753
|
+
GET:
|
754
|
+
{"outer"=>{"foo"=>"123", "bar"=>"456"}}
|
755
|
+
```
|
756
|
+
|
757
|
+
__New in 2.0:__ The new `RestClient::ParamsArray` class allows callers to
|
758
|
+
provide ordering even to structured parameters. This is useful for unusual
|
759
|
+
cases where the server treats the order of parameters as significant or you
|
760
|
+
want to pass a particular key multiple times.
|
761
|
+
|
762
|
+
Multiple fields with the same name using ParamsArray:
|
763
|
+
```ruby
|
764
|
+
>> RestClient.get('https://httpbin.org/get', params:
|
765
|
+
RestClient::ParamsArray.new([[:foo, 1], [:foo, 2]]))
|
766
|
+
# GET "https://httpbin.org/get?foo=1&foo=2"
|
767
|
+
```
|
768
|
+
|
769
|
+
Nested ParamsArray:
|
770
|
+
```ruby
|
771
|
+
>> RestClient.get('https://httpbin.org/get', params:
|
772
|
+
{foo: RestClient::ParamsArray.new([[:a, 1], [:a, 2]])})
|
773
|
+
# GET "https://httpbin.org/get?foo[a]=1&foo[a]=2"
|
774
|
+
```
|
775
|
+
|
776
|
+
## Headers
|
777
|
+
|
778
|
+
Request headers can be set by passing a ruby hash containing keys and values
|
779
|
+
representing header names and values:
|
780
|
+
|
781
|
+
```ruby
|
782
|
+
# GET request with modified headers
|
783
|
+
RestClient.get 'http://example.com/resource', {:Authorization => 'Bearer cT0febFoD5lxAlNAXHo6g'}
|
784
|
+
|
785
|
+
# POST request with modified headers
|
786
|
+
RestClient.post 'http://example.com/resource', {:foo => 'bar', :baz => 'qux'}, {:Authorization => 'Bearer cT0febFoD5lxAlNAXHo6g'}
|
787
|
+
|
788
|
+
# DELETE request with modified headers
|
789
|
+
RestClient.delete 'http://example.com/resource', {:Authorization => 'Bearer cT0febFoD5lxAlNAXHo6g'}
|
790
|
+
```
|
791
|
+
|
792
|
+
## Timeouts
|
793
|
+
|
794
|
+
By default the timeout for a request is 60 seconds. Timeouts for your request can
|
795
|
+
be adjusted by setting the `timeout:` to the number of seconds that you would like
|
796
|
+
the request to wait. Setting `timeout:` will override both `read_timeout:` and `open_timeout:`.
|
797
|
+
|
798
|
+
```ruby
|
799
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
800
|
+
timeout: 120)
|
801
|
+
```
|
802
|
+
|
803
|
+
Additionally, you can set `read_timeout:` and `open_timeout:` separately.
|
804
|
+
|
805
|
+
```ruby
|
806
|
+
RestClient::Request.execute(method: :get, url: 'http://example.com/resource',
|
807
|
+
read_timeout: 120, open_timeout: 240)
|
808
|
+
```
|
809
|
+
|
810
|
+
## Cookies
|
811
|
+
|
812
|
+
Request and Response objects know about HTTP cookies, and will automatically
|
813
|
+
extract and set headers for them as needed:
|
814
|
+
|
815
|
+
```ruby
|
816
|
+
response = RestClient.get 'http://example.com/action_which_sets_session_id'
|
817
|
+
response.cookies
|
818
|
+
# => {"_applicatioN_session_id" => "1234"}
|
819
|
+
|
820
|
+
response2 = RestClient.post(
|
821
|
+
'http://localhost:3000/',
|
822
|
+
{:param1 => "foo"},
|
823
|
+
{:cookies => {:session_id => "1234"}}
|
824
|
+
)
|
825
|

# ...response body

### Full cookie jar support (new in 1.8)
|
828
|
+
|
829
|
+
The original cookie implementation was very naive and ignored most of the
|
830
|
+
cookie RFC standards.
|
831
|
+
__New in 1.8__: An HTTP::CookieJar of cookies
|
832
|
+
|
833
|
+
Response objects now carry a cookie_jar method that exposes an HTTP::CookieJar
|
834
|
+
of cookies, which supports full standards compliant behavior.
|
835
|
+
|
836
|
+
## SSL/TLS support
|
837
|
+
|
838
|
+
Various options are supported for configuring rest-client's TLS settings. By
|
839
|
+
default, rest-client will verify certificates using the system's CA store on
|
840
|
+
all platforms. (This is intended to be similar to how browsers behave.) You can
|
841
|
+
specify an :ssl_ca_file, :ssl_ca_path, or :ssl_cert_store to customize the
|
842
|
+
certificate authorities accepted.
|
843
|
+
|
844
|
+
### SSL Client Certificates
|
845
|
+
|
846
|
+
```ruby
|
847
|
+
RestClient::Resource.new(
|
848
|
+
'https://example.com',
|
849
|
+
:ssl_client_cert => OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(File.read("cert.pem")),
|
850
|
+
:ssl_client_key => OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.read("key.pem"), "passphrase, if any"),
|
851
|
+
:ssl_ca_file => "ca_certificate.pem",
|
852
|
+
:verify_ssl => OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER
|
853
|
+
).get
|
854
|
+
```
|
855
|
+
Self-signed certificates can be generated with the openssl command-line tool.
|
856
|
+
|
857
|
+
## Hook
|
858
|
+
|
859
|
+
RestClient.add_before_execution_proc add a Proc to be called before each execution.
|
860
|
+
It's handy if you need direct access to the HTTP request.
|
861
|
+
|
862
|
+
Example:
|
863
|
+
|
864
|
+
```ruby
|
865
|
+
# Add oauth support using the oauth gem
|
866
|
+
require 'oauth'
|
867
|
+
access_token = ...
|
868
|
+
|
869
|
+
RestClient.add_before_execution_proc do |req, params|
|
870
|
+
access_token.sign! req
|
871
|
+
end
|
872
|
+
|
873
|
+
RestClient.get 'http://example.com'
|
874
|
+
```
|
875
|
+
|
876
|
+
