ssl_certifier

This gem provides the cURL ca certficates to allow Ruby/OpenURI to verify the authenticity of SSL certificates. Ruby 1.9.x will, by default, attempt to verify SSL certificates when it performs secure operations. This is good from a security standpoint, but when Ruby cannot find the root certificates (like on most Windows installations), SSL errors will occur. This gem solves that problem.

Installation

gem install ssl_certifier

Rails 3

Put this in your Gemfile: gem 'ssl_certifier'

Usage

In Rails 3, the gem will be automatically loaded with your environment via Bundler.

In Ruby scripts, simply require the Gem along with your other dependencies:

require 'ssl_certifier'
