Is there a way to attach Ruby Net::HTTP request to a specific IP address / network interface?
- by Dan Sosedoff
Hello,
Im looking a way to use different IP addresses for each GET request with standard Net::HTTP library. Server has 5 ip addresses and assuming that some API`s are blocking access when request limit per IP is reached. So, only way to do it - use another server. I cant find anything about it in ruby docs.
For example, curl allows you to attach it to specific ip address (in PHP):
$req = curl_init($url)
curl_setopt($req, CURLOPT_INTERFACE, 'ip.address.goes.here';
$result = curl_exec($req);
Is there any way to do it with Net::HTTP library? As alternative - CURB (ruby curl binding). But it will be the latest thing i`ll try.
Suggestions / Ideas?
