google_url_shortener's Issues

It breaks with custom URIs

I'm honestly not sure what's supposed to do with non-HTTP custom URIs but I thought you might want to know that it raises an error if given a custom URI:

[13] pry(main)> url
=> "ovsapp://foobar"
[14] pry(main)> Google::UrlShortener.shorten!(url)
RestClient.post "https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url?key=MY_KEY", "{\"longUrl\":\"ovsapp://foobar\"}", "Accept"=>"application/json", "Accept-Encoding"=>"gzip, deflate", "Content-Length"=>"29", "Content-Type"=>"application/json", "User-Agent"=>"rest-client/2.0.0 (darwin16.1.0 x86_64) ruby/2.3.3p222"
# => 400 BadRequest | application/json 160 bytes
#<RestClient::BadRequest: 400 Bad Request>
NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
from /Users/rhymes/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.3/gems/google_url_shortener-1.1.0/lib/google/url_shortener/url.rb:27:in `encode!'

it seems like https://github.com/joshnesbitt/google_url_shortener/blob/master/lib/google/url_shortener/url.rb#L25 returns nil as response, and then at line https://github.com/joshnesbitt/google_url_shortener/blob/master/lib/google/url_shortener/url.rb#L27 it breaks.

Cannot get analytics to work

Everything works beautifully except when I try to get analytics:

I'm got 403 as response for postMethod

The following post request every returns 403 message.

TMedico = class

  id_corporativo : string;
  nome : string;
  cpf : string;
  crm : string;

  constructor Create(id_corporativo, nome, cpf, crm : string);
end;

procedre myForm.myMethod(medico :TMedico);
begin
  restClient := TRestClient.Create(nil);
  restClient.ConnectionType := THttpConnectionType.hctIndy;
  restClient.Resource('http://starttec.com.br/apimed/api/medico/')
            .Accept(RestUtils.MediaType_Json)
            .ContentType(RestUtils.MediaType_Json)
            .Post<TMedico>(medico);
end;
