Method: HTTP::Message.file?

Defined in:
lib/httpclient/http.rb

.file?(obj) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the given object is a File. In HTTPClient, a file is;

  • must respond to :read for retrieving String chunks.

  • must respond to :pos and :pos= to rewind for reading. Rewinding is only needed for following HTTP redirect. Some IO impl defines :pos= but raises an Exception for pos= such as StringIO but there’s no problem as far as using it for non-following methods (get/post/etc.)
