Issue #14615 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler). I'd say it is ok to add .ok? :D What is missing is a description as to what the method ok? exactly does. In the link that you provided it is unclear to which part exactly you refer the "#ok?" method. It may be easier for whoever adds the code to Net::HTTP to have a description ready what the method does exactly, such as when to return which Boolean. (Here provided that the ruby core team/matz is fine with this method). ---------------------------------------- Feature #14615: Consider introducing shortcut to check Net::HTTP response type https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14615#change-71085 * Author: artur86 (Artur Beljajev) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- Currently you need to either use `kind_of?` or `HTTPResponse#code` to find out the type of a response. ~~~ ruby response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, use_ssl: (uri.scheme == 'https'), cert: OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(client_cert), key: OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(client_key)) do |http| http.request(request) end if response.code || response.kind_of?(Net::HTTPSuccess) ... end ~~~ How about using data from either `Rack::Utils::SYMBOL_TO_STATUS_CODE` or `Net::HTTPResponse::CODE_TO_OBJ` to simply it to: ~~~ ruby if response.ok? ... end ~~~ in the same way as Rails does https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/2090615d39c071c9eb25e715275eb79f3f9b6266/actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/testing/assertions/response.rb#L22? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe: <mailto:ruby-core-request / ruby-lang.org?subject=unsubscribe> <http://lists.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/ruby-core>
