🌐 Send a HTTP Request

A Ruby Cloud Function for sending HTTP requests that supports custom headers and body.

Example input:

{
    "headers": {},

    "payload": "{\"url\":\"https:\/\/demo.appwrite.io\/v1\/locale\/countries\/eu\",\"method\":\"GET\",\"headers\":{\"x-client-version\":\"1.0.0\"},\"body\":\"\"}"
}

Example output:

{
    "success": true,
    "response": {
        "headers": {

🚀 Deployment

1. Clone this repository, and enter this function folder:

git clone https://github.com/open-runtimes/examples.git && cd examples
cd ruby/send-http-request

2. Enter this function folder and build the code:

docker run --rm --interactive --tty --volume $PWD:/usr/code openruntimes/ruby:v2-3.1 sh /usr/local/src/build.sh

As a result, a code.tar.gz file will be generated.

3. Start the Open Runtime:

docker run -p 3000:3000 -e INTERNAL_RUNTIME_KEY=secret-key -e INTERNAL_RUNTIME_ENTRYPOINT=index.rb --rm --interactive --tty --volume $PWD/code.tar.gz:/tmp/code.tar.gz:ro openruntimes/ruby:v2-3.1 sh /usr/local/src/start.sh

Your function is now listening on port 3000, and you can execute it by sending POST request with appropriate authorization headers. To learn more about runtime, you can visit the Ruby runtime README.

📝 Notes

• This function is designed for use with Appwrite Cloud Functions. You can learn more about it in Appwrite docs.
• This example is compatible with Ruby 3.1. Other versions may work but are not guaranteed to work as they haven't been tested.
