OpenSSL for Ruby

Actions Status

OpenSSL for Ruby provides access to SSL/TLS and general-purpose cryptography based on the OpenSSL library.

OpenSSL for Ruby is sometimes referred to as openssl in all lowercase or Ruby/OpenSSL for disambiguation.

Compatibility and maintenance policy

OpenSSL for Ruby is released as a RubyGems gem. At the same time, it is part of the standard library of Ruby. This is called a default gem.

Each stable branch of OpenSSL for Ruby will remain supported as long as it is included as a default gem in supported Ruby branches.

Installation

Note The openssl gem is included with Ruby by default, but you may wish to upgrade it to a newer version available at rubygems.org.

To upgrade it, you can use RubyGems:

gem install openssl

In some cases, it may be necessary to specify the path to the installation directory of the OpenSSL library.

gem install openssl -- --with-openssl-dir=/opt/openssl

Alternatively, you can install the gem with Bundler:

# Gemfile
gem 'openssl'
# or specify git master
gem 'openssl', git: 'https://github.com/ruby/openssl'

After running bundle install, you should have the gem installed in your bundle.

Usage

Once installed, you can require "openssl" in your application.

require "openssl"
