Constructor Details

#initialize(url, options = {}) ⇒ HTTP

Create a HTTP client object. The supplied url is used as the base for all subsequent requests. For example, when initialized with a base url localhost:4000, a call to get with ‘nodes’ will make an HTTP GET request to localhost:4000/nodes

#streaming_request(path, headers = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Makes a streaming download request, streaming the response body to a tempfile. If a block is given, the tempfile is passed to the block and the tempfile will automatically be unlinked after the block is executed.

If no block is given, the tempfile is returned, which means it’s up to you to unlink the tempfile when you’re done with it.
