Zlib::GzipReader

Zlib::GzipReader is the class for reading a gzipped file. GzipReader should be used as an IO, or -IO-like, object.

Zlib::GzipReader.open('hoge.gz') {|gz|
  print gz.read
}

File.open('hoge.gz') do |f|
  gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(f)
  print gz.read
  gz.close
end

Method Catalogue

The following methods in Zlib::GzipReader are just like their counterparts in IO, but they raise Zlib::Error or Zlib::GzipFile::Error exception if an error was found in the gzip file.

Be careful of the footer of the gzip file. A gzip file has the checksum of pre-compressed data in its footer. GzipReader checks all uncompressed data against that checksum at the following cases, and if it fails, raises Zlib::GzipFile::NoFooter, Zlib::GzipFile::CRCError, or Zlib::GzipFile::LengthError exception.

The rest of the methods are adequately described in their own documentation.

File::Stat

Objects of class File::Stat encapsulate common status information for File objects. The information is recorded at the moment the File::Stat object is created; changes made to the file after that point will not be reflected. File::Stat objects are returned by IO#stat, File::stat, File#lstat, and File::lstat. Many of these methods return platform-specific values, and not all values are meaningful on all systems. See also Kernel#test.

IO::TimeoutError

Can be raised by IO operations when IO#timeout= is set.

IO::EAGAINWaitReadable

exception to wait for reading by EAGAIN. see IO.select.

IO::EWOULDBLOCKWaitReadable

exception to wait for reading by EWOULDBLOCK. see IO.select.

IO::EINPROGRESSWaitWritable

exception to wait for writing by EINPROGRESS. see IO.select.

RubyVM::InstructionSequence

The InstructionSequence class represents a compiled sequence of instructions for the Virtual Machine used in MRI. Not all implementations of Ruby may implement this class, and for the implementations that implement it, the methods defined and behavior of the methods can change in any version.

With it, you can get a handle to the instructions that make up a method or a proc, compile strings of Ruby code down to VM instructions, and disassemble instruction sequences to strings for easy inspection. It is mostly useful if you want to learn how YARV works, but it also lets you control various settings for the Ruby iseq compiler.

You can find the source for the VM instructions in insns.def in the Ruby source.

The instruction sequence results will almost certainly change as Ruby changes, so example output in this documentation may be different from what you see.

Of course, this class is MRI specific.

Net::HTTPSession

Class Net::HTTP provides a rich library that implements the client in a client-server model that uses the HTTP request-response protocol. For information about HTTP, see:

About the Examples

Strategies

The methods cited above are convenience methods that, via their few arguments, allow minimal control over the requests. For greater control, consider using request objects.

URIs

On the internet, a URI (Universal Resource Identifier) is a string that identifies a particular resource. It consists of some or all of: scheme, hostname, path, query, and fragment; see URI syntax.

A Ruby URI::Generic object represents an internet URI. It provides, among others, methods scheme, hostname, path, query, and fragment.

Schemes

An internet URI has a scheme.

The two schemes supported in Net::HTTP are 'https' and 'http':

uri.scheme                       # => "https"
URI('http://example.com').scheme # => "http"

Hostnames

A hostname identifies a server (host) to which requests may be sent:

hostname = uri.hostname # => "jsonplaceholder.typicode.com"
Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  # Some HTTP stuff.
end

Paths

A host-specific path identifies a resource on the host:

_uri = uri.dup
_uri.path = '/todos/1'
hostname = _uri.hostname
path = _uri.path
Net::HTTP.get(hostname, path)

Queries

A host-specific query adds name/value pairs to the URI:

_uri = uri.dup
params = {userId: 1, completed: false}
_uri.query = URI.encode_www_form(params)
_uri # => #<URI::HTTPS https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com?userId=1&completed=false>
Net::HTTP.get(_uri)

Fragments

A URI fragment has no effect in Net::HTTP; the same data is returned, regardless of whether a fragment is included.

Request Headers

Request headers may be used to pass additional information to the host, similar to arguments passed in a method call; each header is a name/value pair.

Each of the Net::HTTP methods that sends a request to the host has optional argument headers, where the headers are expressed as a hash of field-name/value pairs:

headers = {Accept: 'application/json', Connection: 'Keep-Alive'}
Net::HTTP.get(uri, headers)

See lists of both standard request fields and common request fields at Request Fields. A host may also accept other custom fields.

HTTP Sessions

A session is a connection between a server (host) and a client that:

See example sessions at Strategies.

Session Using Net::HTTP.start

If you have many requests to make to a single host (and port), consider using singleton method Net::HTTP.start with a block; the method handles the session automatically by:

In the block, you can use these instance methods, each of which that sends a single request:

Session Using Net::HTTP.start and Net::HTTP.finish

You can manage a session manually using methods start and finish:

http = Net::HTTP.new(hostname)
http.start
http.get('/todos/1')
http.get('/todos/2')
http.delete('/posts/1')
http.finish # Needed to free resources.

Single-Request Session

Certain convenience methods automatically handle a session by:

Such methods that send GET requests:

Such methods that send POST requests:

HTTP Requests and Responses

Many of the methods above are convenience methods, each of which sends a request and returns a string without directly using Net::HTTPRequest and Net::HTTPResponse objects.

You can, however, directly create a request object, send the request, and retrieve the response object; see:

Following Redirection

Each returned response is an instance of a subclass of Net::HTTPResponse. See the response class hierarchy.

In particular, class Net::HTTPRedirection is the parent of all redirection classes. This allows you to craft a case statement to handle redirections properly:

def fetch(uri, limit = 10)
  # You should choose a better exception.
  raise ArgumentError, 'Too many HTTP redirects' if limit == 0

  res = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI(uri))
  case res
  when Net::HTTPSuccess     # Any success class.
    res
  when Net::HTTPRedirection # Any redirection class.
    location = res['Location']
    warn "Redirected to #{location}"
    fetch(location, limit - 1)
  else                      # Any other class.
    res.value
  end
end

fetch(uri)

Basic Authentication

Basic authentication is performed according to RFC2617:

req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
req.basic_auth('user', 'pass')
res = Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  http.request(req)
end

Streaming Response Bodies

By default Net::HTTP reads an entire response into memory. If you are handling large files or wish to implement a progress bar you can instead stream the body directly to an IO.

Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
  http.request(req) do |res|
    open('t.tmp', 'w') do |f|
      res.read_body do |chunk|
        f.write chunk
      end
    end
  end
end

HTTPS

HTTPS is enabled for an HTTP connection by Net::HTTP#use_ssl=:

Net::HTTP.start(hostname, :use_ssl => true) do |http|
  req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
  res = http.request(req)
end

Or if you simply want to make a GET request, you may pass in a URI object that has an HTTPS URL. Net::HTTP automatically turns on TLS verification if the URI object has a ‘https’ URI scheme:

uri # => #<URI::HTTPS https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/>
Net::HTTP.get(uri)

Proxy Server

An HTTP object can have a proxy server.

You can create an HTTP object with a proxy server using method Net::HTTP.new or method Net::HTTP.start.

The proxy may be defined either by argument p_addr or by environment variable 'http_proxy'.

Proxy Using Argument p_addr as a String

When argument p_addr is a string hostname, the returned http has the given host as its proxy:

http = Net::HTTP.new(hostname, nil, 'proxy.example')
http.proxy?          # => true
http.proxy_from_env? # => false
http.proxy_address   # => "proxy.example"
# These use default values.
http.proxy_port      # => 80
http.proxy_user      # => nil
http.proxy_pass      # => nil

The port, username, and password for the proxy may also be given:

http = Net::HTTP.new(hostname, nil, 'proxy.example', 8000, 'pname', 'ppass')
# => #<Net::HTTP jsonplaceholder.typicode.com:80 open=false>
http.proxy?          # => true
http.proxy_from_env? # => false
http.proxy_address   # => "proxy.example"
http.proxy_port      # => 8000
http.proxy_user      # => "pname"
http.proxy_pass      # => "ppass"

Proxy Using ‘ENV['http_proxy']’

When environment variable 'http_proxy' is set to a URI string, the returned http will have the server at that URI as its proxy; note that the URI string must have a protocol such as 'http' or 'https':

ENV['http_proxy'] = 'http://example.com'
http = Net::HTTP.new(hostname)
http.proxy?          # => true
http.proxy_from_env? # => true
http.proxy_address   # => "example.com"
# These use default values.
http.proxy_port      # => 80
http.proxy_user      # => nil
http.proxy_pass      # => nil

The URI string may include proxy username, password, and port number:

ENV['http_proxy'] = 'http://pname:ppass@example.com:8000'
http = Net::HTTP.new(hostname)
http.proxy?          # => true
http.proxy_from_env? # => true
http.proxy_address   # => "example.com"
http.proxy_port      # => 8000
http.proxy_user      # => "pname"
http.proxy_pass      # => "ppass"

Filtering Proxies

With method Net::HTTP.new (but not Net::HTTP.start), you can use argument p_no_proxy to filter proxies:

Compression and Decompression

Net::HTTP does not compress the body of a request before sending.

By default, Net::HTTP adds header 'Accept-Encoding' to a new request object:

Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)['Accept-Encoding']
# => "gzip;q=1.0,deflate;q=0.6,identity;q=0.3"

This requests the server to zip-encode the response body if there is one; the server is not required to do so.

Net::HTTP does not automatically decompress a response body if the response has header 'Content-Range'.

Otherwise decompression (or not) depends on the value of header Content-Encoding:

About the Examples

Returned Responses

Method Net::HTTP.get_response returns an instance of one of the subclasses of Net::HTTPResponse:

Net::HTTP.get_response(uri)
# => #<Net::HTTPOK 200 OK readbody=true>
Net::HTTP.get_response(hostname, '/nosuch')
# => #<Net::HTTPNotFound 404 Not Found readbody=true>

As does method Net::HTTP#request:

req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
Net::HTTP.start(hostname) do |http|
  http.request(req)
end # => #<Net::HTTPOK 200 OK readbody=true>

Class Net::HTTPResponse includes module Net::HTTPHeader, which provides access to response header values via (among others):

Examples:

res = Net::HTTP.get_response(uri) # => #<Net::HTTPOK 200 OK readbody=true>
res['Content-Type']               # => "text/html; charset=UTF-8"
res.content_type                  # => "text/html"

Response Subclasses

Class Net::HTTPResponse has a subclass for each HTTP status code. You can look up the response class for a given code:

Net::HTTPResponse::CODE_TO_OBJ['200'] # => Net::HTTPOK
Net::HTTPResponse::CODE_TO_OBJ['400'] # => Net::HTTPBadRequest
Net::HTTPResponse::CODE_TO_OBJ['404'] # => Net::HTTPNotFound

And you can retrieve the status code for a response object:

Net::HTTP.get_response(uri).code                 # => "200"
Net::HTTP.get_response(hostname, '/nosuch').code # => "404"

The response subclasses (indentation shows class hierarchy):

There is also the Net::HTTPBadResponse exception which is raised when there is a protocol error.
