Ruby: Is there any way to move versions in JIRA via Ruby rest-client

Question

Recently i tried to rewrite an old legacy Python program for our production Ruby environment. The main goal of this script is:

• Get all version from JIRA for project TEST
• Get parent version
• Create new version after parent

jira-ruby gem is good for creating things, but there is no "move" method, so i tried to use REST library.

But i can't figure how to move newly created version after parent one.

How should i sent REST query to move version 22015 after 22010 via POST method?

require 'rubygems'
require 'json'
require 'restclient'

def jira_request
  project_key="TEST"
  jira_login = "bot"
  jira_pass = "password"
  jira_url = "http://#{jira_login}:#{jira_pass}@jira.local:16011/rest/api/2/version/22105/move"

  @move = RestClient.post "#{jira_url}",
  {
    'after' => "http://jira.local:16011/rest/api/2/version/22106"
  }.to_json, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json

  @jiradata = JSON.parse(@move)
end

jira_request
