Ruby-wrapper for Google Directions API. Can return the drive time and driving distance between two places.
After upgrading Ruby, we noticed that this method no longer works, so we change the open(@url) to Net::HTTP.get_response(URI(@url)) and it works fine now.
Google wants base url to be https now.
Would be super helpful to get walking estimations too, biking estimates too. EDIT: Ah I see I can pass in `{mode: "walking"}` into the `opts` argument. This is cool, but...
`directions = GoogleDirections.new(origin, destination)` origin and/or destination being latitude/longitude. Preferably we could do either/or for each one.

Transcribe seemed to be working incorrectly with commas in the coordinate style inputs. I simply ignored it as a quick fix. Works.
Added httpi library, and use that instead to make requests, as I can functionally choose the adapter by passing in the new use_em option with opts on initialize.
