The syntax of HTTP URIs is defined in RFC1738 section 3.3.
Note that the Ruby URI library allows HTTP URLs containing usernames and passwords. This is not legal as per the RFC, but used to be supported in Internet Explorer 5 and 6, before the MS04-004 security update. See <URL:support.microsoft.com/kb/834489>.
A Default port of 80 for URI::HTTP.
# File tmp/rubies/ruby-master/lib/uri/http.rb, line 59
def self.build(args)
tmp = Util.make_components_hash(self, args)
super(tmp)
end
Description
Creates a new URI::HTTP object from components, with syntax checking.
The components accepted are userinfo, host, port, path, query, and fragment.
The components should be provided either as an Array, or as a Hash with keys formed by preceding the component names with a colon.
If an Array is used, the components must be passed in the order [userinfo, host, port, path, query, fragment].
Example:
uri = URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', path: '/foo/bar') uri = URI::HTTP.build([nil, "www.example.com", nil, "/path", "query", 'fragment'])
Currently, if passed userinfo components this method generates invalid HTTP URIs as per RFC 1738.

def authority
if port == default_port

"#{host}:#{port}"
end
end
Description
Returns the authority for an HTTP uri, as defined in www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#section-3.2.
Example:
URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', path: '/foo/bar').authority #=> "www.example.com" URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', port: 8000, path: '/foo/bar').authority #=> "www.example.com:8000" URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', port: 80, path: '/foo/bar').authority #=> "www.example.com"
# File tmp/rubies/ruby-master/lib/uri/http.rb, line 119
def origin
"#{scheme}://#{authority}"
end
Description
Returns the origin for an HTTP uri, as defined in www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6454.
Example:
URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', path: '/foo/bar').origin #=> "http://www.example.com" URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', port: 8000, path: '/foo/bar').origin #=> "http://www.example.com:8000" URI::HTTP.build(host: 'www.example.com', port: 80, path: '/foo/bar').origin #=> "http://www.example.com" URI::HTTPS.build(host: 'www.example.com', path: '/foo/bar').origin #=> "https://www.example.com"

def request_uri
return unless @path
url = @query ? "#@path?#@query" : @path.dup
url.start_with?(?/.freeze) ? url : ?/ + url
end
Description
Returns the full path for an HTTP request, as required by Net::HTTP::Get.
If the URI contains a query, the full path is URI#path + ‘?’ + URI#query. Otherwise, the path is simply URI#path.
Example:
uri = URI::HTTP.build(path: '/foo/bar', query: 'test=true') uri.request_uri # => "/foo/bar?test=true"
