How do I install the Ruby gem 'net/http'?

Question

I am trying to use some Ruby code found here.

In the code it has:

require 'net/http'

However, when I write in the terminal:

sudo gem install net/http

It gives the error:

ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'net/http' (>= 0) in any repository

Could someone tell me how to install this gem please?

Answer 1

You do not need to install anything to use net/http. It is part of your regular ruby distribution.

Just run the script and it should work out of the box.
