Get HTTPS response

问题:

This works great:

require 'net/http'

uri = URI('http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json')
args = {include_entities: 0, include_rts: 0, screen_name: 'johndoe', count: 2, trim_user: 1}
uri.query = URI.encode_www_form(args)
resp = Net::HTTP.get_response(uri)
puts resp.body

But changing from http to https leads to a meaningless error. I'm not asking why the error is meaningless, I would just like to know what's the closest means of doing get_response for https?

I've seen the 'HTTPS' example in the Net::HTTP doc but it looks not very impressive and will make me manually compose the URL from my parameters hash - no good.

Here is a example which works for me under Ruby 1.9.3

require "net/http"

uri = URI.parse("https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json")
args = {include_entities: 0, include_rts: 0, screen_name: 'johndoe', count: 2, trim_user: 1}
uri.query = URI.encode_www_form(args)
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true

request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.request_uri)

response = http.request(request)
response.body
