Method: Gem::Net::HTTP::Persistent#initialize

Defined in:

lib/bundler/vendor/net-http-persistent/lib/net/http/persistent.rb

#initialize(name: nil, proxy: nil, pool_size: DEFAULT_POOL_SIZE) ⇒ Persistent

Creates a new Gem::Net::HTTP::Persistent.

Set a name for fun. Your library name should be good enough, but this otherwise has no purpose.

proxy may be set to a Gem::URI::HTTP or :ENV to pick up proxy options from the environment. See proxy_from_env for details.

In order to use a Gem::URI for the proxy you may need to do some extra work beyond Gem::URI parsing if the proxy requires a password:

proxy = Gem::URI 'http://proxy.example'
proxy.user     = 'AzureDiamond'
proxy.password = 'hunter2'

Set pool_size to limit the maximum number of connections allowed. Defaults to 1/4 the number of allowed file handles or 256 if your OS does not support a limit on allowed file handles. You can have no more than this many threads with active HTTP transactions.
