lib/httpx/request.rb

#initialize(verb, uri, options, params = EMPTY_HASH) ⇒ Request

initializes the instance with the given verb (an upppercase String, ex. ‘GEt’), an absolute or relative uri (either as String or URI::HTTP object), the request options (instance of HTTPX::Options) and an optional Hash of params.

Besides any of the options documented in HTTPX::Options (which would override or merge with what options sets), it accepts also the following:

:params

hash or array of key-values which will be encoded and set in the query string of request uris.

:body

to be encoded in the request body payload. can be a String, an IO object (i.e. a File), or an Enumerable.

:form

hash of array of key-values which will be form-urlencoded- or multipart-encoded in requests body payload.

:json

hash of array of key-values which will be JSON-encoded in requests body payload.

:xml

Nokogiri XML nodes which will be encoded in requests body payload.

:body, :form, :json and :xml are all mutually exclusive, i.e. only one of them gets picked up.
