convert RUBY function to VB.NET

Need this RUBY code converted into a VB.NET program: I can provide the username/password. Deliverables are the VB.NET source code so I can maintain/modify the code and an executable that I can test. require "uri" require "http" require "eventmachine" require "websocket-client-simple" # Request auth token api_username = "API_USERNAME" api_password = "API_PASSWORD" auth_url = "[login to view URL]" token = HTTP.basic_auth(:user => api_username, :pass => api_password) .get(auth_url) .body [login to view URL] do # Connect to Intrinio's WebSocket socket_url = [login to view URL]("wss://[login to view URL]{token}") ws = WebSocket::Client::[login to view URL](socket_url) # Connect to a channel to listen for prices [login to view URL] :open do message = { topic: "iex:securities:AAPL", event: "phx_join", payload: {}, ref: "1" } [login to view URL](message.to_json) end # Parse prices from incoming messages [login to view URL] :message do |msg| message = [login to view URL]([login to view URL]) if message["event"] == "quote" quote = message["payload"] puts "== QUOTE ==== " puts "TYPE: #{quote["type"]}" puts "TICKER: #{quote["ticker"]}" puts "PRICE: #{quote["price"]}" puts "SIZE: #{quote["size"]}" puts "============= " else puts msg end end [login to view URL] :close do |e| puts e exit 1 end [login to view URL] :error do |e| puts e end end
