ruby - 在 Ruby 中发出 HEAD 请求

Question

我是 ruby​​ 的新手，有 python 背景 我想向 URL 发出头请求并检查一些信息，例如文件是否存在于服务器上以及时间戳、etag 等，我无法在 RUBY 中完成此操作。

在 Python 中:

import httplib2
print httplib2.Http().request('url.com/file.xml','HEAD')

在 Ruby 中:我试过这个并抛出一些错误

require 'net/http'

Net::HTTP.start('url.com'){|http|
   response = http.head('/file.xml')
}
puts response


SocketError: getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known

我知道这个问题已经得到解答，但我也不得不经历一些困难。下面是一些更具体的开始:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'net/http'
require 'net/https' # for openssl

uri = URI('http://stackoverflow.com')
path = '/questions/16325918/making-head-request-in-ruby'

response=nil
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
# http.use_ssl = true                            # if using SSL
# http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE   # for example, when using self-signed certs

response = http.head(path)
response.each { |key, value| puts key.ljust(40) + " : " + value }
