HTTP Client reference

The client object holds the HTTP Client session metadata, such as the list of global variables. The HTTP Client session is started when RubyMine starts, and ends when RubyMine is closed. Values are not preserved between RubyMine restarts.

The client provides access to the global nested object that serves as a variables storage.
