jsonclient - Online in the Cloud

PROGRAM:

NAME

jsonclient - Shell command for performing HTTP/JSON requests using Ruby jsonclient

SYNOPSIS

jsonclient <method> <uri> [params]

jsonclient

DESCRIPTION

This program is an example/companion to the Ruby jsonclient module, but can be used as a
complete standalone HTTP/JSON client.

If invoked with a method and an URI, the specified URI will be requested via the method
given from its server. The allowed methods are head, get, post, put, delete, options,
propfind, proppatch and trace.

Parameters can be specified as a third parameter and will be delivered accordingly (i.e.
appended to the URI after a ? sign if the method is get, but as the posted body if the
method is post)

Please note that no checks are done as to whether the requested parameters make sense in
the context they are specified, they are just sent as-is.

$ jsonclient get https://www.google.co.jp/ q=ruby

If no parameters are specified, an interactive Ruby (irb) session will be opened, binding
an JSONClient object as 'self'. You can then call JSONClient instance methods like:

$ jsonclient
>> get "https://www.google.co.jp/", :q => :ruby

JSONclient will print the `wiredump' of your request (that is, the commands sent to the
server via HTTP), then the request's headers, and finally the result.
