Using Net::HTTP.get for an https url

by

Original answer:

uri = URI.parse("https://example.com/some/path")
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
@data = http.get(uri.request_uri)

As pointed out in the comments, this is more elegant:

require "open-uri"
@data = URI.parse("https://example.com/some/path").read
