jnunemaker/httparty

HTTParty is a Ruby library that provides a comprehensive HTTP client interface for making and parsing web requests. It supports all standard HTTP methods, multiple response formats (JSON, XML, CSV), and advanced features like streaming, authentication, and proxy configuration. The system includes a CLI tool, structured logging, and extensive test coverage to ensure reliability.

This period marks the comprehensive migration from the legacy 'Web' module to the 'HTTParty' library, replacing outdated build systems and scripts with modern Ruby tooling like RSpec and Rake. The work involved refactoring the codebase to support HTTParty's robust HTTP client features, updating dependencies, and establishing a new release workflow. Extensive test coverage and documentation were added to support the new architecture.
