## Parsing JSON
If the response Content Type is `application/json`, HTTParty will parse the response and return Ruby objects such as a hash or array. The default behavior for parsing JSON will return keys as strings. This can be supressed with the `format` option. To get hash keys as symbols:

```ruby
response = HTTParty.get('http://example.com', format: :plain)
JSON.parse response, symbolize_names: true
```

## Working with SSL

You can use this guide to work with SSL certificates.

#### Using `pem` option

```ruby
# Use this example if you are using a pem file

class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"
  pem File.read("#{File.expand_path('.')}/path/to/certs/cert.pem"), "123456"
end
```

#### Using `pkcs12` option

```ruby
# Use this example if you are using a pkcs12 file

class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"
  pkcs12 File.read("#{File.expand_path('.')}/path/to/certs/cert.p12"), "123456"
end
```

#### Using `ssl_ca_file` option

```ruby
# Use this example if you are using a pkcs12 file

class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"
  ssl_ca_file "#{File.expand_path('.')}/path/to/certs/cert.pem"
end
```

#### Using `ssl_ca_path` option

```ruby
# Use this example if you are using a pkcs12 file

class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"
  ssl_ca_path '/path/to/certs'
end
```

You can also include this options with the call:

```ruby
class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"

  def self.fetch
    get("/resources", pem: File.read("#{File.expand_path('.')}/path/to/certs/cert.pem"), pem_password: "123456")
  end
end
```

### Avoid SSL verification

In some cases you may want to skip SSL verification, because the entity that issue the certificate is not a valid one, but you still want to work with it. You can achieve this through:

```ruby
# Skips SSL certificate verification

class Client
  include HTTParty

  base_uri "https://example.com"
  pem File.read("#{File.expand_path('.')}/path/to/certs/cert.pem"), "123456"

  def self.fetch
    get("/resources", verify: false)
    # You can also use something like:
    # get("resources", verify_peer: false)
  end
end
```
