My code is like
encodestring = "test#gmail.com:test"
enc = Base64.encode64(encodestring)
auth = "Basic #{enc}"
https = Net::HTTP.new('localhost', 443)
https.use_ssl = true
path = '/user/test'
query_string = "#{auth}"
https.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE # don't display warnings
resp = https.post(path,query_string)
here test is a method inside user_controller.rb file.If i am making simple http request its working fine but while making https request it is giving exception "SocketError (initialize: name or service not known)".Please help me to make it a valid https call. thanks in advance.
The examples I've seen have taken a host name as the first argument to HTTP.new, rather than a URL. Try this:
https = Net::HTTP.new('localhost', 443)
It's not clear whether you actually want to connect to port 443 or 3001 - you obviously can't connect to both. If you want 3001, replace the 443 above.

I would like to make http request from my lua filter to an external server.
According to Envoy documentation, http call can be done using request_handle:httpCall:
function envoy_on_request(request_handle)
-- Make an HTTP call to an upstream host with the following headers, body, and timeout.
local headers, body = request_handle:httpCall(
"lua_cluster",
{
[":method"] = "POST",
[":path"] = "/",
[":authority"] = "lua_cluster"
},
"hello world",
5000)
I have created a cluster called lua_cluster in my envoy.yaml file as needed, but the request doesn't reach my server and I'm getting 400 response.
Possible solution??
When changing the authority header from [":authority"] = "lua_cluster" to [":authority"] = "<cluster's url hostname>", the request arrived to the server and I got 200 response from the server. Can someone explain this? Is it a valid thing to do?
I would like to send an HTTP GET request to an ip address and port to determine if there is a device online that can respond at that address.
I want to have a relatively reasonable timeout so that my application does not hang while connecting, if there's no. I have been using Net::HTTP, but there does not seem to be a way to set a timeout when using an ip address.
res = Net::HTTP.get_response(ip_address, '/index.html', port)
Is there a best practice or better method to perform this request or a way to set a timeout in Net::HTTP when using an ip address rather than domain name?
I'm using Ruby 2.1.5 and Rails 4.1.0 with hosting on Heroku.
You can see about HTTParty gem. This gem provide many options and easy to use.
You set timeout for the request to return the response
response = HTTParty.get('https://www.google.co.in/', timeout: 60)
timeout is in seconds.
or in Net http you can set as,
uri = URI.parse(ip_address + '/index.html')
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.path)
begin
response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port) {|http|
http.read_timeout = 100 #Default is 60 seconds
http.request(request)
}
rescue Net::ReadTimeout => e
puts e.message
end
There's no major difference between requesting via an ip address or by dns name, in the latter case DNS query is made and usually a Host-header is set, after that request is done via the ip.
In Net::HTTP there's open_timeout setting that raises Net::OpenTimeout when set if connection cannot be established during that period. By default it's nil which means 'forever'
Not sure what you are looking for. In the Net::HTTP-class there is read_timeout-setter. See here: http://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.1.0/Net/HTTP.html#method-i-read_timeout-3D
I am working on a project whereby we have sites (developed with ruby on rails) hosted on an Ubuntu server using tomcat. We want these sites to make HTTP calls to a service developed using Nancy. We have this working locally whereby the service is hosted on a machine that we can call within our network. We cannot however get it working when live. Here is an example call:
def get_call(routePath)
started_at = Time.now
enc_url = URI.encode("#{settings.service_endpoint}#{routePath}")
uri = URI.parse(enc_url)
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.request_uri)
resp = http.request(req)
logger.bench 'SERVICE - GET', started_at, routePath
return resp if response_ok?(resp)
end
When working locally the settings are as follows:
settings.service_endpoint = http://10.10.10.27:7820
routePath = /Customers
When we upload it to the server we use the following:
settings.service_endpoint = http://127.0.0.1:24099
routePath = /Customers
We currently get the following error:
SocketError at /register
initialize: name or service not know
with the following line being highlighted:
resp = http.request(req)
Are we completely wrong with the IP being called. Should it be 127.0.0.1, localhost. 10.10.10.27 or something entirely different? The strange thing is we can do a GET call via telnet in our Ubuntu server (telnet 127.0.0.1 24099) so that must mean the server can make the calls but the site hosted on the server cannot. Do we need to include a HTTP proxy (have read some reference to that but dont really know if its needed).
Apologies if its obvious but we have never tried anything like this before so its all very perplexing. Any further information required just let me know.
We changed the service_endpoint to localhost and it worked. Not sure if this is because it didnt like "http://" or some other reason. Any explanation as to why this is the case would be much appreciated, just so we know. Thanks!
I am working on rails environment. I am using Net::HTTP module for calling an external API and getting the response. This is working fine in my local host. But in staging it throwing an Net::HTTPBadResponse error. My staging is SSL enabled. This is the difference. Providing the code snippet and error below.
parameters = {'VirtualNumber' => '09845xxxxxx','Number[]' => "09878xxxxxx" }
x = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse("https://example.com"), parameters)
Error:
Net::HTTPBadResponse (wrong status line: "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">")
The successful result will be in XML format. Can any one help me to solve this.
Thank You,
Regards
The issue was calling the API from ssl enabled site. So while calling the API we need to enable the ssl. And along with that need to provide basic authentication.
parameters = {'VirtualNumber' => '09845xxxxxx','Number[]' => "09878xxxxxx" }
url = URI.parse("https://example.com")
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path)
request.basic_auth "user", "pass"
request.set_form_data(parameters)
sock = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
if url.scheme == 'https'
sock.use_ssl = true
end
response = sock.start {|http| http.request(request) }
I currently have an application I am working on that I am using in the cloud (Jelastic). I have added SSL certs to my Cloud environment and want to be able o now use https on certain pages. I have implemented the below methods of doing this:
Method 1:
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.definition = [
'/login/**': 'REQUIRES_SECURE_CHANNEL'
]
Method 2:
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.definition = [
'/login/**': 'REQUIRES_SECURE_CHANNEL'
]
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.useHeaderCheckChannelSecurity = true
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.secureHeaderName = 'X-Forwarded-Proto'
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.secureHeaderValue = 'http'
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.insecureHeaderName = 'X-Forwarded-Proto'
grails.plugins.springsecurity.secureChannel.insecureHeaderValue = 'https'
So for method 1 it partly works as when you go to the index page in HTTP and then try to go to the login page you will be shown an error message saying:
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
Method 2 however does not seem to work at all and when I go to the Login page on HTTP it does not redirect me as I would expect and just seems to work on HTTP which is strange.
This solution is hosted in Jelastic as I mention so not sure is that could be causing some issues, but any help offered would be great.
Thanks in advance
I used the following config for deploying on to prod server. Then it started on https. I am using jdk 1.8 and Tomcat 8.
grails.plugin.springsecurity.portMapper.httpPort = 80
grails.plugin.springsecurity.portMapper.httpsPort = 443
grails.plugin.springsecurity.secureChannel.secureHeaderName = 'X-FORWARDED-PROTO'
grails.plugin.springsecurity.secureChannel.secureHeaderValue = 'http'
grails.plugin.springsecurity.secureChannel.insecureHeaderName = 'X-FORWARDED-PROTO'
grails.plugin.springsecurity.secureChannel.insecureHeaderValue = 'https'
grails.plugin.springsecurity.auth.forceHttps = true
grails.plugin.springsecurity.secureChannel.definition = [
'/**': 'REQUIRES_SECURE_CHANNEL'
]
