Looking for Example of Faraday Middleware with Error checking - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am looking for an example of Faraday Middleware that handles http (status code) errors on requests and additionally network timeouts.
After reading the docs for Faraday and it's middleware it's my understanding that this is one of middleware's use cases… I just have no idea what an implementation is supposed to look like.
Thanks

Faraday has an error handling middleware in by default:
faraday.use Faraday::Response::RaiseError
For example:
require 'faraday'
conn = Faraday.new('https://github.com/') do |c|
c.use Faraday::Response::RaiseError
c.use Faraday::Adapter::NetHttp
end
response = conn.get '/cant-find-me'
#=> gems/faraday-0.8.8/lib/faraday/response/raise_error.rb:6:in `on_complete': the server responded with status 404 (Faraday::Error::ResourceNotFound)
If you want to write your own middleware to handle HTTP status code responses, heres a basic example:
require 'faraday'
class CustomErrors < Faraday::Response::Middleware
def on_complete(env)
case env[:status]
when 404
raise RuntimeError, 'Custom 404 response'
end
end
end
conn = Faraday.new('https://github.com/') do |c|
c.use CustomErrors
c.use Faraday::Adapter::NetHttp
end
response = conn.get '/cant-find-me' #=> `on_complete': Custom 404 response (RuntimeError)
For your code, you'll probably want to put it in a separate file, require it, modularise it etc.
If you want to see a good live example, the new Instagram gem has a pretty good setup to raise custom errors: GitHub link
