Net::HTTP

There are many ways to use Net::HTTP. The scenarios below provide regression tests for some Net::HTTP APIs that have not worked properly with VCR and WebMock in the past (but have since been fixed).

Background ()

Given a file named "vcr_setup.rb" with:

require 'ostruct'

if ARGV[0] == '--with-server'
  $server = start_sinatra_app do
    get('/')  { 'VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!' }
    post('/') { 'VCR works with Net::HTTP posts!' }
  end
else
  $server = OpenStruct(:port => 0)
end

require 'vcr'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.default_cassette_options = {
    :match_requests_on => [:method, :host, :path]
  }
end

Calling #post on new Net::HTTP instance

Given a file named "vcr_net_http.rb" with:

require 'vcr_setup.rb'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.hook_into <hook_into>
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

VCR.use_cassette('net_http') do
  puts Net::HTTP.new('localhost', $server.port).post('/', '').body
end

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb --with-server

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP posts!"

And the file "cassettes/net_http.yml" should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP posts!"

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP posts!".

Examples

hook_into
:webmock

Return from yielded block

Given a file named "vcr_net_http.rb" with:

require 'vcr_setup.rb'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.hook_into <hook_into>
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

def perform_request
  Net::HTTP.new('localhost', $server.port).request(Net::HTTP::Get.new('/', {})) do |response|
    return response
  end
end

VCR.use_cassette('net_http') do
  puts perform_request.body
end

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb --with-server

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

And the file "cassettes/net_http.yml" should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!".

Examples

hook_into
:webmock

Use Net::ReadAdapter to read body in fragments

Given a file named "vcr_net_http.rb" with:

require 'vcr_setup.rb'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.hook_into <hook_into>
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

VCR.use_cassette('net_http') do
  body = ''

  Net::HTTP.new('localhost', $server.port).request_get('/') do |response|
    response.read_body { |frag| body << frag }
  end

  puts body
end

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb --with-server

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

And the file "cassettes/net_http.yml" should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!".

Examples

hook_into
:webmock

Use open-uri (which is built on top of Net::HTTP and uses a seldom-used Net::HTTP API)

Given a file named "vcr_net_http.rb" with:

require 'open-uri'
require 'vcr_setup.rb'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.hook_into <hook_into>
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

VCR.use_cassette('net_http') do
  puts open("http://localhost:#{$server.port}/").read
end

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb --with-server

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

And the file "cassettes/net_http.yml" should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!"

When I run ruby vcr_net_http.rb

Then the output should contain "VCR works with Net::HTTP gets!".

Examples

hook_into
:webmock

Make an HTTPS request

Given a file named "vcr_https.rb" with:

require 'vcr'

VCR.configure do |c|
  c.hook_into <hook_into>
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

uri = URI("https://gist.githubusercontent.com/myronmarston/fb555cb593f3349d53af/raw/6921dd638337d3f6a51b0e02e7f30e3c414f70d6/vcr_gist")

VCR.use_cassette('https') do
  http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
  http.use_ssl = true
  http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
  response = http.request_get(uri.path)

  puts response.body
end

When I run ruby vcr_https.rb

Then the output should contain "VCR gist"

And the file "cassettes/https.yml" should contain "VCR gist"

When I modify the file "cassettes/https.yml" to replace "VCR gist" with "HTTPS replaying works"

And I run ruby vcr_https.rb

Then the output should contain "HTTPS replaying works".
