I have a json URL supplied by sendgrid. All it needs to be is touched. How would I do this?
def suspend
#user = User.find(params[:id])
#user.update_attribute("suspended", true)
# the url I need to touch => https://sendgrid.com/api/unsubscribes.add.xml?api_user=username%40website.com&api_key=secret_password&email=#{#user.email}
end
You can use Net::HTTP.get from standard library (see docs):
require 'net/http'
Net::HTTP.get URI("https://sendgrid.com/api/unsubscribes.add.xml?api_user=username%40website.com&api_key=secret_password&email=#{#user.email}")
Updated:
For HTTPS you can do smth like that:
require "net/https"
uri = URI.parse("https://www.google.com")
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.request_uri)
# request = Net::HTTP::Head.new(uri.request_uri) - get response without body
response = http.request(request)
Nice article on the subject - Ruby Net::HTTP Cheat Sheet.
Install httpclient gem
HTTPClient.get("https://sendgrid.com/api/unsubscribes.add.xml?api_user=username%40website.com&api_key=secret_password&email=#{#user.email}")
maybe try ActionDispatch GET http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionDispatch/Request.html#method-i-GET
require 'open-uri'
open("http://pragprog.com/") { |f| f.gets }
result? just one row, not the whole page:
"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN\"\n"

I have a working request on localhost, which basically calls and endpoint using an address
def stuart_validate_address(address)
require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
### not working with accents like Calàbria
# url = URI("https://api.stuart.com/v2/addresses/validate?type=picking&address=#{address}")
# url = URI.parse("https://api.stuart.com/v2/addresses/validate?type=picking&address=#{address}")
url = URI.parse(URI.escape("https://api.stuart.com/v2/addresses/validate?type=picking&address=#{address}"))
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request["authorization"] = "Bearer #{AUTH_TOKEN}"
request.body = "{}"
response = http.request(request)
JSON.parse(response.read_body)
end
If I use the endpoint with Postman it works, if I do the call with localhost it works. But once we are on production (gcloud) it complains about
URI::InvalidURIError
URI must be ascii only "https://api.stuart.com/v2/addresses/validate?type=picking&address=Córsega 494, 08025, Barcelona"
I know I have to parse it and escape it, but I can't figure out why I still have the same error. Also I am curious why it's working on localhost and postman, and not in Rails production environment.
The issue is that you have an acute ó in your url.
If you are using Rails, you can use string#parameterize
Or if plain Ruby, you use i18n gem:
require "i18n"
I18n.transliterate("Olá Mundo!")
=> "Ola Mundo!"
I want to make a http POST request that parse XML response and return the value of SessionId field that is inside XML. This is what I tried so far.
Ps: is there a way I can run this class from the console, in the way that I can see the response?
class Documents::CreateSession
def initialize()
#username = Rails.secrets.legal_doc.username
#password= Rails.secrets.legal_doc.password
end
def start
require "net/http"
require "uri"
uri = URI.parse("http://example.com/search")
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri)
request.set_form_data({"userid" => #username, "password" => #password})
response = http.request(request)
end
end
I think that you can run your code the way that you have it now. Start a console and do the following:
obj = Documents::CreateSession.new
obj.start
For debugging purposes, you could put a binding.pry in the start method before you make your request.
This should be simple, given the public nature of the data, but for some reason my Ruby script is timing out on making the request.
The URL is http://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCGBP/ticker - works fine in browsers, and returns the expected JSON.
require 'net/https'
require 'uri'
uri = URI.parse('https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCGBP/ticker')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true if uri.scheme == 'https'
resp, response = http.post(uri.request_uri, nil)
This, however, returns the Timeout::Error: execution expired exception (every time) from the same box. I'm probably missing something really obvious; can anyone help?
Thanks
I tried your code in my environment and everything was ok. Can you write something more about this error, in which line it happened etc. ?
And are you sure to use POST verb (RESTful) ? What do you want to do ? I modified your code:
require 'net/https'
require 'uri'
uri = URI.parse('https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCGBP/ticker')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true if uri.scheme == 'https'
resp = http.get(uri.request_uri)
puts resp.body
I use GET verb and I got JSON.
I want to post some data using standard ruby class NET::HTTP.
I have controller from examples
def request
require "net/http"
require "uri"
uri = URI.parse("http://google.com/")
# Shortcut
response = Net::HTTP.get_response(uri)
# Will print response.body
Net::HTTP.get_print(uri)
# Full
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
response = http.request(Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.request_uri))
end
My application gives error -
undefined method `content_mime_type' for #<Net::HTTPMovedPermanently 301 Moved Permanently readbody=true>
Why this is happening ?
Problem might be that in the last line of your code, there are two requests happening. The code translates to:
response = http.request(<result>) where the <some result> part is the return value from the call Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.request_uri)
I think you were trying to do this instead:
http.request(uri.request_uri)
HI ,
i am new to ROR
i am writing Ruby code for calling API blogs
i have written ruby code for
Creating the blog by
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
url = URI.parse('http://localhost:3000/api/blogs/create.xml')
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path)
req.basic_auth 'a', 'a'
req.set_form_data({'blogpost[title]'=>'TestingAPIBlogposttitle',
'blogpost[description]'=>'Testing api desc',
'blogpost[category_id]'=>'3121'}, ';')
res = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port).start {|http| http.request(req)}
case res
when Net::HTTPSuccess, Net::HTTPRedirection
puts res.body
else
res.error!
end
which runs successfully by creating a new blog
And i have a search code
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
require 'cgi'
## Change this part according to the api to be accessed and the params to be passed.
uri = URI.parse( "http://localhost:3000/api/blogs/show/blogtitle.xml" )
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.path)
request.basic_auth 'a', 'a'
response = http.request(request)
puts response.body
which returns the
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<blogpost>
<created-at type="datetime">2010-09-02T08:18:22Z</created-at>
<description><p>Blog desc</p></description>
<slug>blogtitle</slug>
<title>blogtitle</title>
<user>
<firstname>admin</firstname>
<lastname>k</lastname>
<login>admin</login>
</user>
</blogpost>
Now i am trying to Update a BLog
for this how to write the code
i tried by simply changing the POST.new by PUT.new
but it didnt works for me
its showing me the error even if i gave admin User credentials
It might be worth trying a POST request but also adding a _method = 'put' parameter to the request. Rails can simulate a PUT request in this way though I would expect it to respond correctly to an HTTP PUT too.
