= httparty

== DESCRIPTION:

Makes http fun again!

== FEATURES:

• Easy get, post requests
• Basic http authentication
• Default request query string parameters (ie: for api keys that are needed on each request)
• Automatic parsing of JSON and XML into ruby hashes based on response content-type

== EXAMPLES:

See http://github.com/jnunemaker/httparty/tree/master/examples

== COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

httparty also includes the executable httparty which can be used to query web services and examine the resulting output. By default it will output the response as a pretty-printed Ruby object (useful for grokking the structure of output). This can also be overridden to output formatted XML or JSON. Execute httparty --help for all the options. Below is an example of how easy it is.

httparty "http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json" -f json

== REQUIREMENTS:

• JSON ~> 1.1

== INSTALL:

• sudo gem install httparty
