Method: FTW::Agent#request

Defined in:
lib/ftw/agent.rb

#request(method, uri, options) ⇒ Object

Build a request. Returns a FTW::Request object.

Arguments:

  • method - the http method

  • uri - the URI to make the request to

  • options - a hash of options

uri can be a valid url or an Addressable::URI object. The uri will be used to choose the host/port to connect to. It also sets the protocol (https, etc). Further, it will set the ‘Host’ header.

The ‘options’ hash supports the following keys:

  • :headers => { string => string, … }. This allows you to set header values.
