# Rex::Socket
The Ruby Exploitation (Rex) Socket Abstraction Library. This library includes all of the code needed to turn sockets into Rex::Sockets. Rex::Sockets are used to provide L3 pivoting and proxy support in Metasploit.
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'rex-socket'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install rex-socket
## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
