Defined in:
lib/restclient/request.rb

Overview

This class is used internally by RestClient to send the request, but you can also call it directly if you’d like to use a method not supported by the main API. For example:

RestClient::Request.execute(:method => :head, :url => 'http://example.com')

Mandatory parameters:

  • :method

  • :url

Optional parameters (have a look at ssl and/or uri for some explanations):

  • :headers a hash containing the request headers

  • :cookies may be a Hash=> String of cookie values, an

    Array<HTTP::Cookie>, or an HTTP::CookieJar containing cookies. These
will be added to a cookie jar before the request is sent.

  • :user and :password for basic auth, will be replaced by a user/password available in the :url

  • :block_response call the provided block with the HTTPResponse as parameter

  • :raw_response return a low-level RawResponse instead of a Response

  • :max_redirects maximum number of redirections (default to 10)

  • :proxy An HTTP proxy URI to use for this request. Any value here (including nil) will override RestClient.proxy.

  • :verify_ssl enable ssl verification, possible values are constants from

    OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_*, defaults to OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER

  • :read_timeout and :open_timeout are how long to wait for a response and

    to open a connection, in seconds. Pass nil to disable the timeout.

  • :timeout can be used to set both timeouts

  • :ssl_client_cert, :ssl_client_key, :ssl_ca_file, :ssl_ca_path,

    :ssl_cert_store, :ssl_verify_callback, :ssl_verify_callback_warnings

  • :ssl_version specifies the SSL version for the underlying Net::HTTP connection

  • :ssl_ciphers sets SSL ciphers for the connection. See

    OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#ciphers=

  • :before_execution_proc a Proc to call before executing the request. This

    proc, like procs from RestClient.before_execution_procs, will be
called with the HTTP request and request params.

Class Method Details

.default_ssl_cert_store ⇒ OpenSSL::X509::Store

Return a certificate store that can be used to validate certificates with the system certificate authorities. This will probably not do anything on OS X, which monkey patches OpenSSL in terrible ways to insert its own validation. On most *nix platforms, this will add the system certifcates using OpenSSL::X509::Store#set_default_paths. On Windows, this will use RestClient::Windows::RootCerts to look up the CAs trusted by the system.

Returns:

  • (OpenSSL::X509::Store)

#cookies ⇒ Hash

Render a hash of key => value pairs for cookies in the Request#cookie_jar that are valid for the Request#uri. This will not necessarily include all cookies if there are duplicate keys. It’s safer to use the cookie_jar directly if that’s a concern.

#default_headers ⇒ Hash<Symbol, String>

  return HTTP::Cookie.cookie_value(arr)
end

#make_headers(user_headers) ⇒ Hash<String, String>

Generate headers for use by a request. Header keys will be stringified using ‘#stringify_headers` to normalize them as capitalized strings.

The final headers consist of:

- default headers from #default_headers
- user_headers provided here
- headers from the payload object (e.g. Content-Type, Content-Lenth)
- cookie headers from #make_cookie_header

BUG: stringify_headers does not alter the capitalization of headers that are passed as strings, it only normalizes those passed as symbols. This behavior will probably remain for a while for compatibility, but it means that the warnings that attempt to detect accidental header overrides may not always work. github.com/rest-client/rest-client/issues/599

Parameters:

  • user_headers (Hash) —

    User-provided headers to include

Returns:

  • (Hash<String, String>) —

    A hash of HTTP headers => values

#normalize_url(url) ⇒ String

Normalize a URL by adding a protocol if none is present.

If the string has no HTTP-like scheme (i.e. scheme followed by ‘//’), a scheme of ‘http’ will be added. This mimics the behavior of browsers and user agents like cURL.

Parameters:

  • url (String) —

    A URL string.

Returns:

  • (String)

end

#process_cookie_args!(uri, headers, args) ⇒ HTTP::CookieJar

Process cookies passed as hash or as HTTP::CookieJar. For backwards compatibility, these may be passed as a :cookies option masquerading inside the headers hash. To avoid confusion, if :cookies is passed in both headers and Request#initialize, raise an error.

:cookies may be a:

  • Hash=> String

  • Array<HTTP::Cookie>

  • HTTP::CookieJar

Passing as a hash:

Keys may be symbols or strings. Values must be strings.
Infer the domain name from the request URI and allow subdomains (as
though '.example.com' had been set in a Set-Cookie header). Assume a
path of '/'.

  RestClient::Request.new(url: 'http://example.com', method: :get,
    :cookies => {:foo => 'Value', 'bar' => '123'}
  )

results in cookies as though set from the server by:

Set-Cookie: foo=Value; Domain=.example.com; Path=/
Set-Cookie: bar=123; Domain=.example.com; Path=/

which yields a client cookie header of:

Cookie: foo=Value; bar=123

Passing as HTTP::CookieJar, which will be passed through directly:

jar = HTTP::CookieJar.new
jar.add(HTTP::Cookie.new('foo', 'Value', domain: 'example.com',
                         path: '/', for_domain: false))

RestClient::Request.new(..., :cookies => jar)

infer the domain name for cookies passed as strings in a hash. To avoid this implicit behavior, pass a full cookie jar or use HTTP::Cookie hash values.

Parameters:

  • uri (URI::HTTP) —

    The URI for the request. This will be used to

  • headers (Hash) —

    The headers hash from which to pull the :cookies option. MUTATION NOTE: This key will be deleted from the hash if present.

  • args (Hash) —

    The options passed to Request#initialize. This hash will be used as another potential source for the :cookies key. These args will not be mutated.

Returns:

  • (HTTP::CookieJar) —

    A cookie jar containing the parsed cookies.

#process_url_params(url, headers) ⇒ String

Extract the query parameters and append them to the url

Look through the headers hash for a :params option (case-insensitive, may be string or symbol). If present and the value is a Hash or RestClient::ParamsArray, delete the key/value pair from the headers hash and encode the value into a query string. Append this query string to the URL and return the resulting URL.

Parameters:

  • url (String)
  • headers (Hash) —

    An options/headers hash to process. Mutation warning: the params key may be removed if present!
