Faraday instead HTTPClient

[sheerun]

Faraday is an abstraction layer for http clients in ruby.

HttpClient is one of its backends, but there are great alternatives.

Could you switch sekken to use faraday instead?

[sheerun]

or httpie ;)

Hey @sheerun thanks for pointing this out. It's been quite a while since I've taken a step back and asked what the Ruby community is using for HTTP clients (and abstractions around them).

Would you be interested in submitting a pull request to bring in Faraday to Sekken?

I tried to work on that issue and struggled with a 'bug' in faraday - lostisland/faraday#428

I do not think it makes any sense to work on this ticket before Faraday guys clarify the situation somehow.

[tjarratt]

That's unfortunate. I have to say, your face-palm avatar is strangely appropriate, given the "bug" you filed against Faraday.

i'm looking forward to extract that dependency to abstract layer, @tjarratt what do you think about it?
