Phearb is a library for handling connections to phear servers. It allows ruby apps to easy fetch sites source code using phear.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'phearb'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install phearb
Put these lines in the configuration section of you app. In rails you should probably add an initializer or put in one of your environment files:
Phearb.configure do |config|
config.host = <host> # Defaults to 'localhost'
config.port = <port> # Defaults to 8100
config.timeout <timeout_in_seconds> # Defaults to 60
endresponse = Phearb.fetch('http://www.google.com')
puts response.content if response.successSimply calling Phearb.fetch(<url>) will do the job. It returns an Phearb::Response object wrapping the phearb server response with one method per key:
{
"success": true,
"input_url": "http://such-website.com",
"final_url": "http://www.such-website.com/",
"had_js_errors": false,
"content": "<html>rendered</html>",
"request_headers": {},
"response_headers": {
"date": "Sun, 08 Feb 2015 15:11:22 GMT",
"content-encoding": "gzip",
"cache-control": "max-age=60",
"content-type": "text/html; charset=utf-8"
}
}Then if you need access to the final_url you can call response.final_url.
As phear support optional parameters, so does the gem. The fetch method call supports passing an second parameter with a hash of options. For a list of available options see phear's README since the names are consistent.
Phearb.fetch('http://www.google.com', force: true, parse_delay: 500)After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
