curl command equivalent in ruby

I have a curl command that works well, but I need to automate this in a ruby script, curl cmd: ``` curl -u usrname:pwd -X POST --data "del=false&val=100" http://localhost:1111/sample/path ``` I wrote the following code: ``` uri = URI::HTTPS.build(:host => "localhost", :port => 1111) uri.path = URI.escape("/sample/path") client = Net::HTTP.new("localhost", "1111") req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.request_uri, {"User-Agent" => "UA"}) req.set_form_data({"del" => "false", "val" => "100"}) req.basic_auth("usrname", "pwd") res = client.request(req) ``` The above code is working, I had a encoded url that I was passing to URI.escape, that made me post this question about bad response. Foud the issue and fixed it :)
