Faraday SSL example

gistfile1.rb

connection = Faraday::Connection.new('http://example.com') do |builder|
  builder.request :url_encoded  # for POST/PUT params
  builder.adapter :net_http
end

# same as above, short form:
connection = Faraday.new 'http://example.com'

# GET
connection.get '/posts'

# POST payload
payload = {:title => 'Example'}
connection.post '/posts', payload

# now again, over SSL
# verify_mode is automatically set to OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER
connection = Faraday.new 'https://example.com'

# turn off SSL
# (no use-case for this, really)
connection = Faraday.new 'https://example.com', :ssl => false

# turn off peer verification
connection = Faraday.new 'https://example.com', :ssl => {:verify => false}

# other SSL options
connection = Faraday.new 'https://example.com', :ssl => {
    :client_cert  => ...,
    :client_key   => ...,
    :ca_file      => ...,
    :ca_path      => ...,
    :cert_store   => ...
  }

Example for those who got here searching for example of TLS auth:

  def self.ping
    connection = Faraday::Connection.new 'https://host:443/ping', ssl: {
      ca_file: 'config/credentials/ROOT_CA.cer',
      client_key: OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.read('config/credentials/client.key')),
      client_cert: OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(File.read('config/credentials/agent.cer'))
    }
    connection.get.body
  end
