DEFAULT_PORT = nil
 

A Default port of nil for URI::Generic

COMPONENT = [ :scheme, :userinfo, :host, :port, :registry, :path, :opaque, :query, :fragment ].freeze
 

An Array of the available components for URI::Generic

USE_REGISTRY = false
 

Default to not use the registry for a URI::Generic

Attributes
[R] fragment

returns the fragment component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz?search=FooBar#ponies").fragment #=> "ponies"
[R] host

returns the host component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz").host #=> "foo"

It returns nil if no host component.

URI("mailto:foo@example.org").host #=> nil

The component doesn't contains the port number.

URI("http://foo:8080/bar/baz").host #=> "foo"

Since IPv6 addresses are wrapped by brackets in URIs, this method returns IPv6 addresses wrapped by brackets. This form is not appropriate to pass socket methods such as IO.open. If unwrapped host names are required, use “hostname” method.

URI("http://[::1]/bar/baz").host #=> "[::1]"
URI("http://[::1]/bar/baz").hostname #=> "::1"
[R] opaque

returns the opaque part of the URI.

URI("mailto:foo@example.org").opaque #=> "foo@example.org"

Portion of the path that does make use of the slash '/'. The path typically refers to the absolute path and the opaque part.

(see RFC2396 Section 3 and 5.2)
[R] path

returns the path component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz").path #=> "/bar/baz"
[R] port

returns the port component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz").port #=> "80"

URI("http://foo:8080/bar/baz").port #=> "8080"
[R] query

returns the query component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz?search=FooBar").query #=> "search=FooBar"
[R] registry

returns the registry component of the URI.

(see RFC2396 Section 3.2)
[R] scheme

returns the scheme component of the URI.

URI("http://foo/bar/baz").scheme #=> "http"

Synopsis

Description

Creates a new URI::Generic instance from components of URI::Generic with check. Components are: scheme, userinfo, host, port, registry, path, opaque, query and fragment. You can provide arguments either by an Array or a Hash. See new for hash keys to use or for order of array items.

find_proxy()

returns a proxy URI. The proxy URI is obtained from environment variables such as http_proxy, ftp_proxy, no_proxy, etc. If there is no proper proxy, nil is returned.

Note that capitalized variables (HTTP_PROXY, FTP_PROXY, NO_PROXY, etc.) are examined too.

But http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY is treated specially under CGI environment. It's because HTTP_PROXY may be set by Proxy: header. So HTTP_PROXY is not used. http_proxy is not used too if the variable is case insensitive. CGI_HTTP_PROXY can be used instead.
