restclient with ruby

Here i am trying to pass one ID with the url, but that ID didn't append with URL...

def retrieve
    url =  "http://localhost:3000/branches/"
    resource = RestClient::Resource.new url+$param["id"]
    puts resource
end

giving ID via commend line that is

ruby newrest.rb  id="22"

I have got the error like this

`+': can't convert nil into String (TypeError)

But all this working with mozilla rest client. How to rectify this problem?

From my point of view line puts resource seems strange, but when we leave it as it is I'd suggest

def retrieve
    url =  "http://localhost:3000/branches/"
    resource = RestClient::Resource.new url
    res_with_param = resource[$param["id"]]
    puts res_with_param
end

I haven't tried so there may be a syntax mistakes. I'm really newcomer in ruby. But idea is good I hope.

Greetings, KAcper

Here are some examples from the documentation:

private_resource = RestClient::Resource.new 'https://example.com/private/resource', 'user', 'pass'

RestClient.post 'http://example.com/resource', :param1 => 'one', :nested => { :param2 => 'two' }

Just experiment with comma-separated parameters or with hashes so see what your URL gives you.

Like this:

RestClient.get 'http://localhost:3000/branches', {:params => {:id => 50, 'name' => 'value'}}

You can find the command line parameters in the global ARGV array.

If ruby newrest.rb 22 will do then just

id = ARGV[0]
response = RestClient.get "http://localhost:3000/branches/#{id}"
puts response.body
