I do not have access to the online Wit.ai API from my localhost

[Eliuvis]

I am trying to develop a chatbot using wit.ai to mount it on my website, but from my localhost I do not have access to the online API ... I use Ruby on Rails and when I try the basic example of the repository Git the answer is' SocketError: Failed to open TCP connection to api.wit.ai:443 (getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution) ', use the' savon 'gem to verify if it had connection and it works for me, I do not know why wit does not do it. This is the example:

require 'wit'
def call
    client = Wit.new(access_token: 'Y3Q......')
    rsp = client.message('cuestion???')
    puts("Yay, got Wit.ai response: #{rsp}")
  end

Then in my console:

$ rails c
Running via Spring preloader in process 5322
Loading development environment (Rails 5.1.5)
2.3.1 :001 > obj = MessageController.new
 => #<MessageController:0x00000003624280 @_action_has_layout=true, @_routes=nil, @_request=nil, @_response=nil> 
2.3.1 :002 > obj.call

Hi @Eliuvis,

This doesn't seem like an issue with the library.
Have you tried using the library directly (instead of through Rails)?
