curl command equivalent in ruby

I have a curl command that works well, but I need to automate this in a ruby script,

curl cmd:

curl -u usrname:pwd -X POST --data "del=false&val=100" 

I wrote the following code:

uri = URI::HTTPS.build(:host => "localhost", :port => 1111) uri.path = URI.escape("/sample/path") client = Net::HTTP.new("localhost", "1111") req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri, {"User-Agent" => "UA"}) req.set_form_data({"del" => "false", "val" => "100"}) req.basic_auth("usrname", "pwd") res = client.request(req) 

The above code is working, I had a encoded url that I was passing to URI.escape, that made me post this question about bad response. Foud the issue and fixed it :)

THE BEST & EASY SOLUTION!!

1. Copy your CURL code.

2. Go to this page.

3. Paste your CURL code.

4. Be happy.

I tested this solution this page its amazing.

you can execute the curl command directly from ruby

usrname = "username" pwd = "pwd" val = 100 del= false http_path = "" puts `curl -u #{usrname}:#{pwd} -X POST --data "del=#{del}&val=#{va}" #{http_path}` 

and the back ticks will execute the system curl

You can use curb

c = Curl::Easy.new c.http_auth_types = :basic c.username = 'usrname' c.password = 'pwd' c.http_post("", "del=false&val=100")
