Overview

This class simply takes in a URL and has the ability to parse it for information (headers, etc per the Net::HTTP::Persistent module) and will make a new get request to the URL every 20 minutes to keep it ‘alive’. It will make an initial request when the object is initialized, then feed the object to the timer to be repeated every X seconds. It is set to 20 minutes by default.
