I'm trying to pull a facebook avatar via auth. Here's what i'm doing:
def image_uri
require 'net/http'
image = URI.parse(params[:image]) # https://graph.facebook.com/565515262/picture
fetch = Net::HTTP.get_response(image)
based = 'data:image/jpg;base64,' << Base64.encode64(fetch)
render :text => based
end
I'm getting the following error (new error — edited):
Connection reset by peer
I've tried googling about, I can't seem to get a solution, any ideas?
I'm basically looking for the exact functioning of PHP's file_get_contents()
Try escaping the URI before parsing:
URI.parse URI.escape(params[:image])
Make sure that params[:image] does contain the uri you want to parse... I would instead pass the userid and interpolate it into the uri.
URI.parse URI.escape("https://graph.facebook.com/#{params[:image]}/picture)"
Does it throw the same error when you use a static string "https://graph.facebook.com/565515262/picture"
What does it say when you do
render :text => params[:image]
If both of the above don't answer your question then please try specifying the use of HTTPS-
uri = URI('https://secure.example.com/some_path?query=string')
Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port, :use_ssl => uri.scheme == 'https').start do |http|
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new uri.request_uri
response = http.request request # Net::HTTPResponse object
end
Presuming you are on ruby < 1.9.3, you will also have to
require 'net/https'
If you are on ruby 1.9.3 you don't have to do anything.
Edit
If you are on the latest version, you can simply do:
open(params[:image]) # http://graph.facebook.com/#{#user.facebook_id}/picture

I'm using Ruby on Rails 5 and I need to execute the following command in my application:
curl -F 'client_id=126581840734567' -F 'client_secret=678ebe1b3b8081231aab27dff738313' -F 'grant_type=authorization_code' -F 'redirect_uri=https://uri.com/' -F 'code=AQBi4L2Ohy3Q_N3V48OygFm0zb3gEsL985x5TIyDTNDJaLs93BwXiT1tyGYWoCg1HlBDU7ZRjUfLL5HVlzw4G-7YkVEjp6Id2WuqOz0Ylt-k2ADwDC5upH3CGVtHgf2udQhLlfDnQz5NPsnmxjg4bW3PJpW5FaQs8fn1ztgYp-ssfAf6IRt2-sI45ZC8cqqr5K_12y0Nq_Joh0H-tTfVyNLKatIxHPCqRDb3tfqgmxim1Q' https://api.instagram.com/oauth/access_token
so that it returns something like:
{"access_token": "IGQVJYS0k8V6ZACRC10WjYxQWtyMVRZAN8VXamh0RVBZAYi34RkFlOUxXZnTJsbjlEfnFJNmprQThmQ4hTckpFUmJEaXZAnQlNYa25aWURnX3hpO12NV1VMWDNMWmdIT3FicnJfZAVowM3VldlVWZAEViN1ZAidHlyU2VDMUNuMm2V", "user_id": 17231445640157812}
Is there a way to make Rails execute those types of commands? I was trying the following:
uri = URI.parse('https://api.instagram.com/oauth/access_token')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri)
request.set_form_data({
"client_id" => "126581840734567",
"client_secret" => "678ebe1b3b8081231aab27dff738313",
"grant_type" => "authorization_code",
"redirect_uri" => "http://nace.network/",
"code" => params[:code]
})
res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port) do |http|
http.request(request)
end
but I get the following error:
end of file reached
in this line:
res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port) do |http|
http.request(request)
end
You're using HTTPS, so you need to add this to your code:
Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, use_ssl: true) do |http|
res = http.request(request)
end
But if you don't need persistent connections, you could also use this:
res = Net::HTTP.post_form(uri,
"client_id" => "126581840734567",
"client_secret" => "678ebe1b3b8081231aab27dff738313",
"grant_type" => "authorization_code",
"redirect_uri" => "http://nace.network/",
"code" => params[:code]
)
Also, you could consider using a library like Faraday, which is a lot easier to deal with.
Edit
This is from TinMan's comment below, sound points.
Using cURL from inside Ruby or Rails is extremely valuable. There is an incredible amount of functionality inside cURL that isn't implemented in Rails or Ruby; Even Ruby's HTTP clients have a hard time replicating it, so cURL is very acceptable depending on the needs of the application. And, depending on the application, because cURL is in compiled C, it could easily outrun pure Ruby clients.
Curl is a means of issuing HTTP (or HTTPs) requests from the command line.
You don't want to use CURL in Rails. You want to issue HTTP requests from within Rails. Using curl is okay, it's one way to issue HTTP requests from with Rails.
We can refine that down further to, you want to issue HTTP requests from Ruby. Narrowing/distilling down to the most basic version of the problem is always good to do.
We knew all this already probably - still worth writing down for us all to benefit from!
Use HTTP in Ruby
We want to use a HTTP Client. There are many but, for this I'm going to use Faraday (a gem) 'cause I like it.
You've made a good start with Ruby's built in NET:HTTP but I prefer Faraday's DSL. It results in more readable and extendable code.
So, here is a class! I barely tested this so, use as a starting point. Make sure you write some unit tests for it.
# This is a Plain Old Ruby Object (PORO)
# It will work in Rails but, isn't Rails specific.
require 'faraday' # This require is needed as it's a PORO.
class InstagramOAuth
attr_reader :code
# The code parameter will likely change frequently, so we provide it
# at run time.
def initialize(code)
#code = code
end
def get_token
connection.get('/oauth/access_token') do |request|
request.params[:code] = code
end
end
private
def connection
#connection ||= Faraday.new(
url: instagram_api_url,
params: params,
ssl: { :ca_path => https_certificate_location }
)
end
def instagram_api_url
#url ||= 'https://api.instagram.com'
end
# You need to find out where these are for your self.
def https_certificate_location
'/usr/lib/ssl/certs'
end
def params
# These params likely won't change to often so we set a write time
# in the class like this.
{
client_id: '126581840734567',
client_secret: '678ebe1b3b8081231aab27dff738313',
grant_type: 'authorization_code',
redirect_uri: 'https://uri.com/'
}
end
end
# How do we use it? Like so
# Your big old authorisation code from your question
code = 'AQBi4L2Ohy3Q_N3V48OygFm0zb3gEsL985x5TIyDTNDJaLs93BwXiT1tyGYWoCg1HlBDU'\
'7ZRjUfLL5HVlzw4G-7YkVEjp6Id2WuqOz0Ylt-k2ADwDC5upH3CGVtHgf2udQhLlfDnQz'\
'5NPsnmxjg4bW3PJpW5FaQs8fn1ztgYp-ssfAf6IRt2-sI45ZC8cqqr5K_12y0Nq_Joh0H'\
'-tTfVyNLKatIxHPCqRDb3tfqgmxim1Q'
# This will return a Faraday::Response object but, what is in it?
response = InstagramOAuth.new(code).get_token
# Now we've got a Hash
response_hash = response.to_hash
puts 'Request made'
puts "Request full URL: #{response_hash[:url]}"
puts "HTTP status code: #{response_hash[:status]}"
puts "HTTP response body: #{response_hash[:body]}"
When I ran the snippet above I got the following. The class works, you just need to tweak the request params until you get what you want. Hopefully the class demonstrates how to send HTTP requests in Ruby/Rails.
Request made
Request full URL: https://api.instagram.com/oauth/access_token?client_id=126581840734567&client_secret=678ebe1b3b8081231aab27dff738313&code=AQBi4L2Ohy3Q_N3V48OygFm0zb3gEsL985x5TIyDTNDJaLs93BwXiT1tyGYWoCg1HlBDU7ZRjUfLL5HVlzw4G-7YkVEjp6Id2WuqOz0Ylt-k2ADwDC5upH3CGVtHgf2udQhLlfDnQz5NPsnmxjg4bW3PJpW5FaQs8fn1ztgYp-ssfAf6IRt2-sI45ZC8cqqr5K_12y0Nq_Joh0H-tTfVyNLKatIxHPCqRDb3tfqgmxim1Q&grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Furi.com%2F

I'm building out a platform for displaying data in charts that pulls from Zendesk's API. I'm running into trouble in that only 100 records at a time can be pulled with one call. How do I pull multiple pages of records from this resource?
Here is the code I use to make the call:
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
require 'json'
#imports User data from the zendesk api and populates the database with it.
uri = URI.parse("https://samplesupport.zendesk.com/api/v2/users.json")
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
request.content_type = "application/json"
request.basic_auth("sampleguy#sample.com", "samplepass")
req_options = {
use_ssl: uri.scheme == "https",
}
#response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, req_options) do |http|
http.request(request)
end
puts #response.body
puts #response.message
puts #response.code
This works fine for calling down one 'page' of resources...any help with grabbing multiple pages using my script would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Based on ZenDesk's documentation they return a next_page attribute in their payload. So you should just check for its existence and then query again if it exists. Repeat as needed.
require 'json'
# setup to query for the first page
results = JSON.parse(#response.body)
users = results['users'] #to get the users
if results['next_page']
# Do another query to results['next_page'] URL and add to users list
I'm getting a no implicit conversion of String into Integer error that has me stumped, and unable to import user records and seed my database with them.
So far I have no problem accessing the data, but receive an error referencing the '[]' on the line with User.find... on it
The code I'm using is as follows:
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
require 'json'
require 'faker'
#this script imports APR user data from the zendesk api and populates
the database with it.
uri = URI.parse("https://blahsupport.zendesk.com/api/v2/users.json")
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
request.content_type = "application/json"
request.basic_auth("blah#blah.com", "blahpass")
req_options = {
use_ssl: uri.scheme == "https",
}
#response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, req_options) do |http|
http.request(request)
end
puts #response.body
puts #response.message
puts #response.code
info = #response.body
info.force_encoding("utf-8")
File.write('blahusers1.json', info)
puts "File Created Successfully!"
file = File.read('blahusers1.json')
users = JSON.load(file)
users.each do |a|
User.find_or_create_by_zendesk_id(:zendesk_id => a['id'], :url => a['url'], :name => a['name'], :email => a['email'])
end
Any ideas on how I've gotten this error? Thank you for any help!
**Edit
Below is an example of the data being returned.
{"users":[{"id":333653859,"url":"https://blahblah.zendesk.com/api/v2/users/333653859.json","name":"Randy Blah","email":"randy#blah.com","created_at":"2014-08-06T14:31:24Z","updated_at":"2018-04-04T14:22:06Z","time_zone":"Pacific Time (US & Canada)","phone":null,"shared_phone_number":null,"photo":{"url":"https://aprtechsupport.zendesk.com/api/v2/attachments/68955389.json","id":68955389,"file_name":"Work.jpg","content_url":"https://aprtechsupport.zendesk.com/system/photos/6895/5389/Work.jpg","mapped_content_url":"https://blahblah.zendesk.com/system/photos/6895/5389/Work.jpg","content_type":"image/jpeg","size":2528,"width":80,"height":80,"inline":false,"thumbnails":[{"url":"https://blahblah.zendesk.com/api/v2/attachments/68955399.json","id":68955399,"file_name":"Work_thumb.jpg","content_url":"https://blahblah.zendesk.com/system/photos/6895/5389/Work_thumb.jpg","mapped_content_url":"https://blahblah.zendesk.com/system/photos/6895/5389/Work_thumb.jpg","content_type":"image/jpeg","size":2522,"width":32,"height":32,"inline":false}]},"locale_id":1,"locale":"en-US","organization_id":null,"role":"admin","verified":true,"external_id":null,"tags":[],"alias":"","active":true,"shared":false,"shared_agent":false,"last_login_at":"2018-04-04T14:21:44Z","two_factor_auth_enabled":null,"signature":"Thanks for contacting the helpdesk!\n-Randy","details":"","notes":"","role_type":null,"custom_role_id":null,"moderator":true,"ticket_restriction":null,"only_private_comments":false,"restricted_agent":false,"suspended":false,"chat_only":false,"default_group_id":21692179,"user_fields":{}}
The example data you posted has a root object users that contains the array of user objects. So when you loop users using users.each, a is actually an Array and not a user Hash like you expected.
When you try to access an element of an Array using a 'String' index, it gives you the exception – no implicit conversion of String into Integer
So, try changing
users = JSON.load(file)
to
users = JSON.load(file)['users']
to get it working like how you'd expect.
I am trying to perform an HTTP authorization using Ruby on Rails. Here is what I'm trying:
res = http.post(uri.request_uri,
:Authorization => cobSessionToken,
"coBrandSessionCredential=loginToken=#{cobSessionToken}&userLogin=#{login}&userPassword=#{password}")
render :json => {"isValid" => true, "Body" => JSON.parse(res.body)}
This doesn't seem to work. How can I perform an authorization?
how about something like this?
url = URI.parse('https://my.url.com/path')
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path)
req.basic_auth 'user', 'pass'
req.use_ssl = true
req.form_data({'key1' => 'val1', 'key2' => 'val2'})
resp = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port).start {|http| http.request(req) }
puts resp
I would recommend using something like postman (its a free google program you can get at the google store) to make sure the error is not on the server side. Use Net:http it comes with ruby so you do not need to install it but you have to require it.
Require it by:
require "net/http"
require "uri"
Use this cheatsheet I think you need basic_auth.rb You will see how to form the request.
I got the following back from delayed_job:
[Worker(XXXXXX pid:3720)] Class#XXXXXXX failed with URI::InvalidURIError: bad URI(is not URI?): https://s3.amazonaws.com/cline-local-dev/2/attachments/542/original/mac-os-x[1].jpeg?AWSAccessKeyId=xxxxxxxx&Expires=1295403309&Signature=xxxxxxx%3D - 3 failed attempts
The way this URI comes from in my app is.
In my user_mailer I do:
#comment.attachments.each do |a|
attachments[a.attachment_file_name] = open(a.authenticated_url()) {|f| f.read }
end
Then in my attachments model:
def authenticated_url(style = nil, expires_in = 90.minutes)
AWS::S3::S3Object.url_for(attachment.path(style || attachment.default_style), attachment.bucket_name, :expires_in => expires_in, :use_ssl => attachment.s3_protocol == 'https')
end
That being said, is there some type of URI.encode or parsing I can do to prevent a valid URI (as I checked the URL works in my browser) for erroring and killing delayed_job in rails 3?
Thank you!
Ruby has (at least) two modules for dealing with URIs.
URI is part of the standard library.
Addressable::URI, is a separate gem, and more comprehensive, and claims to conform to the spec.
Parse a URL with either one, modify any parameters using the gem's methods, then convert it using to_s before passing it on, and you should be good to go.
I tried ' open( URI.parse(URI.encode( a.authenticated_url() )) ' but that errord with OpenURI::HTTPError: 403 Forbidden
If you navigated to that page via a browser and it succeeded, then later failed going to it directly via code, it's likely there is a cookie or session state that is missing. You might need to use something like Mechanize, which will maintain that state while allowing you to navigate through a site.
EDIT:
require 'addressable/uri'
url = 'http://www.example.com'
uri = Addressable::URI.parse(url)
uri.query_values = {
:foo => :bar,
:q => '"one two"'
}
uri.to_s # => "http://www.example.com?foo=bar&q=%22one%20two%22"
