Pude hacer que esto funcionara sin una bifurcación usando la gema mysql2
require 'rubygems'
require 'mysql2'
require 'net/ssh/gateway'
gateway = Net::SSH::Gateway.new(
'remotehost.com',
'username'
)
port = gateway.open('127.0.0.1', 3306, 3307)
client = Mysql2::Client.new(
host: "127.0.0.1",
username: 'dbuser',
password: 'dbpass',
database: 'dbname',
port: port
)
results = client.query("SELECT * FROM projects")
results.each do |row|
p row
end
client.close
