This adds a lot of complexity, do you know of anything that wraps up making a http request, and respecting these environment variables into a simple API.

It all just feels like a lot of work, and a lot of untested work (the untested bit being my fault, when I started this app, it was unbelievably simple, and had so few moving parts that a test suite seemed overkill).

I'd prefer it if we could delegate responsibility for this and SSL support to an external, well tested http client gem.
