Faraday Middleware Template

This repo is a template for building Faraday middleware. Faraday is an HTTP client library that provides a common interface for making requests. This interface allows classes to be loaded into the request/response lifecycle to provide common functionality such as authentication, parsing, encoding, and much more. These classes are called middleware. Use this repository to create your own middleware gem.

Getting Started

Preparing

This is a gem_generator template, so firstly you have to install it:

gem install gem_generator

Usage

The next step is for you to generate a new Faraday middleware via gem_generator call.

First of all, you should decide on the name of your middleware. The current convention (which is by no means mandatory) is to call middleware gems as faraday-<something>. Here are some examples:

Then, you should call the generation command, like this:

gem_generator faraday-my_middleware lostisland/faraday-middleware-template --git

More usage info and options you can get by gem_generator --help or in the gem_generator README.

There are placeholders in this repository with template for your chosen middleware name. So once you decide on the final name you want to use and ran the generation command — you will see all occurrences of MyMiddleware and my_middleware in all files with and their names with the name you chose.

Also please notice: your name and email will be mentioned in *.gemspec file and LICENSE.md. By default, they're taken from git config, but you can also specify them in a gem_generator config file (in the home directory, for example).

Basic implementation

The bulk of the implementation is in the Faraday::MyMiddleware::Middleware class. We've added lots of comments in there to guide you through it, but if you have any doubt/question please don't hesitate to get in touch!
