# Excon::Addressable [![wercker status](https://app.wercker.com/status/3868c162aa140566b830f517c45d528a/s/master "wercker status")](https://app.wercker.com/project/bykey/3868c162aa140566b830f517c45d528a) Sets [Addressable][addressable] as the default URI parser. Supports parsing [templated uris][]. ## Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: ```ruby gem 'excon-addressable' ``` And then execute: ```shell bundle ``` Or install it yourself as: ```shell gem install excon-addressable ``` ## Usage Be sure to add `Excon::Addressable::Middleware` to the top of the middleware stack, so that the variables get expanded as early as possible. This prevents other middleware from choking on non-valid URIs. ```ruby Excon.defaults[:middlewares].unshift(Excon::Addressable::Middleware) ``` Then simply provide a templated variable, and the values with which to expand the template: ```ruby conn = Excon.new('http://www.example.com/{uid}', expand: { uid: 'hello' }) conn.request.path # => '/hello' ``` ## License The gem is available as open source under the terms of the [MIT License](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).
