HEC: Share a basic hello world script with Ruby to send to HEC?

All,

I need to send some data from a Ruby script to HEC collectors. Anyone have a basic hello world script they can share sending a string to a HEC with ruby? Doesn't need to be fancy.

I'm completely aware that you wish to get a Ruby script to work with Splunk HEC, but I'm going to take your words literally.

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

puts 'Hello world'
