azure-sdk-for-ruby/runtime/ms_rest

Intro

MsRest is a library which supports the clients (SDKs) generated with Autorest tool. It contains core logic and helper classes for error handling and authentication. Usually it is not supposed to be used as a standalone gem but only as a dependency for generated client gems.

Supported Ruby Versions

• Ruby 2.0
• Ruby 2.1
• Ruby 2.2

Note: x64 Ruby for Windows is known to have some compatibility issues.

Installation

install the appropriate gem:

gem install ms_rest

and reference it in your code:

require 'ms_rest'

---

If you encounter Faraday::SSLError like below

Faraday::SSLError:
            SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed

that implies that ruby's OpenSSL was unable to verify the peer certificate while establihsing an SSL connection. You can provide Faraday ssl options or opt-in to use already bundled certificate using

MsRest.use_ssl_cert

---

Running tests

MsRest has only unit tests which doesn't require any preparation, just run 'rspec' command from the gem directory.

Contribution

To start working on the gem the only additional dev dependency is required - rspec. After you've added a new feature and all specs pass - you're good to go with PR. But before starting any bug/feature - please make sure you've thoroughly discussed it with repository maintainers. This gem already powers a few SDKs and backward compatibility should taken in account.

Adding gem to you generated SDK

Reference it in the gemfile and also add this line to your client's gemspec file:

spec.add_runtime_dependency 'ms_rest', '~> 0.7.3'

Don't forget to correct the version.

Utilizing Telemetry Extension in your SDK

We encourage the customer of ms_rest library to provide information about their product sent via telemetry extension point as below:

additional_user_agent_information = 'fog-azure-rm/0.2.0' # Refer https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-ruby/issues/517 for more info.
service_client.add_user_agent_information(additional_user_agent_information)
