Overview

Connection objects manage the default properties and the middleware stack for fulfilling an HTTP request.

Examples:


conn = Faraday::Connection.new 'http://httpbingo.org'

# GET http://httpbingo.org/nigiri
conn.get 'nigiri'
# => #<Faraday::Response>

    Hash of unencoded HTTP header key/value pairs.

  • :request (Hash) —

    Hash of request options.

  • :ssl (Hash) —

    Hash of SSL options.

  • :proxy (Hash, URI, String) —

    proxy options, either as a URL or as a Hash

  • :proxy[:uri] (URI, String)
