Using require in a module -- Rails

Question

This seems fairly trivial but is giving me hella grief!

I have a module in the lib folder.

require 'net/http'
module Weather

  def get_response
    NET::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse 'someURL').body
  end

end

The controller.

class SunController < ApplicationController
include Weather

  def show  
    logger.debug get_response
  end
end

config/Application.rb

config.autoload_paths += %W(#{config.root}/lib)

And I get this error

uninitialized constant Weather::NET

I know the module is loaded correctly. What am I doing wrong?

don't define lib explicitly in your autoload paths. It will be loaded when the application starts. — AnkitG

The class is Net::HTTP not NET::HTTP.
