HttpLog
A Ruby gem for logging outgoing HTTP requests from your application to aid debugging and understanding API interactions.
What is HttpLog?
httplog is a Ruby gem that logs outgoing HTTP requests from your application, capturing details like request methods, URLs, headers, response codes, and bodies. It helps developers debug API integrations and understand the HTTP traffic generated by their Ruby apps. The gem works by monkey-patching popular HTTP client libraries to intercept and log their calls.
Ruby developers building applications that interact with external APIs and need visibility into HTTP requests for debugging or development purposes.
Developers choose httplog because it provides a simple, zero-configuration way to log HTTP traffic across multiple Ruby HTTP clients without modifying application code. Its extensive configurability and support for compact/JSON logging formats make it adaptable to different debugging workflows.
