Encoding Incorrect when Streaming Response

[mvastola]

I'm running into an issue where the encoding is not set according to the response HTTP headers when using :stream_body => true.

I've provided a minimal reproducible example in a gist at https://git.io/fhSBB.

In short, if I look at req.headers['content-type'] I (correctly) see ["text/html;charset=UTF-8"] and req.body.encoding returns UTF-8. However, for whatever reason, fragment.encoding (fragment being the argument to the block provided to HTTParty.get(URL, :stream_body => true) ) is ASCII-8BIT.

Oddly, it works fine when not using streaming.

I'm happy to help troubleshoot this if there's any way I can be of help. Any assistance would be appreciated.

@mvastola I've finally merged the request. Sorry to keep you waiting.
I'm not yet sure, when the new version of is going to be released. Before that, I suggest to fetch httparty directly from github with the following change in your Gemfile

gem 'httparty', github: 'jnunemaker/httparty'

No worries! Thanks again!
