Matching on Method

Use the :method request matcher to match requests on the HTTP method
(i.e. GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc). You will generally want to use
this matcher.

The :method matcher is used (along with the :uri matcher) by default
if you do not specify how requests should match.

Background
Given
a previously recorded cassette file "cassettes/example.yml" with: 
--- 
http_interactions: 
- request: 
    method: post
    uri: http://post-request.com/
    body: 
      encoding: UTF-8
      string: ""
    headers: {}
  response: 
    status: 
      code: 200
      message: OK
    headers: 
      Content-Length: 
      - "13"
    body: 
      encoding: UTF-8
      string: post response
    http_version: "1.1"
  recorded_at: Tue, 01 Nov 2011 04:58:44 GMT
- request: 
    method: get
    uri: http://get-request.com/
    body: 
      encoding: UTF-8
      string: ""
    headers: {}
  response: 
    status: 
      code: 200
      message: OK
    headers: 
      Content-Length: 
      - "12"
    body: 
      encoding: UTF-8
      string: get response
    http_version: "1.1"

Scenarios
Replay interaction that matches the HTTP method
And
a file named "method_matching.rb" with: 
include_http_adapter_for("http_lib")

require 'vcr'

VCR.configure do |c|
  configuration
  c.cassette_library_dir = 'cassettes'
end

VCR.use_cassette('example', :match_requests_on => [:method]) do
  puts "Response for GET: " + response_body_for(:get, "http://example.com/")
end

VCR.use_cassette('example', :match_requests_on => [:method]) do
  puts "Response for POST: " + response_body_for(:post,  "http://example.com/")
end
When
I run ruby method_matching.rb
Then
it should pass with: 
Response for GET: get response
Response for POST: post response
Examples:
configuration http_lib
c.hook_into :fakeweb net/http
c.hook_into :webmock net/http
c.hook_into :webmock httpclient
c.hook_into :webmock curb
c.hook_into :webmock patron
c.hook_into :webmock em-http-request
c.hook_into :webmock typhoeus
c.hook_into :typhoeus typhoeus
c.hook_into :excon excon
c.hook_into :faraday faraday (w/ net_http)
c.hook_into :faraday faraday (w/ typhoeus)
