In the Feedjira 2.0 announcement blog post, it says that if you want to set the user agent, that should be a configuration option, but it is not clear how to do this. Ideally, I would like to mimic the options previously provided in Feedjira 1.0, including user_agent, if_modified_since, timeout, and ssl_verify_peer.

With Feedjira 1.0, you could set those options by making the following call (as described here):
feed_parsed = Feedjira::Feed.fetch_and_parse("http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/news", {:if_modified_since => Time.now, :ssl_verify_peer => false, :timeout => 5, :user_agent => "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/37.0.2062.94 Safari/537.36"})
The only example I have seen where configuration options are set was from a comment in a github pull request, which is as follows:
Feedjira::Feed.configure do |faraday|
faraday.request :user_agent, app: "MySite", version: APP_VERSION
end
But when I tried something similar, I received the following error:
undefined method `configure' for Feedjira::Feed:Class
