Using cg-egress-proxy with a Ruby application

By default,¹ net/http proxy support is limited to connecting to http proxies, and not https proxies. To make proxied connections in Ruby, use Faraday along with one of the following two adapters²:

• faraday-typhoeus
• faraday-patron

Both of those adapters should work out-of-the-box to configure themselves properly from the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables and system certificate store.
