I'm trying to implement the Backend Authentication of the one-time use code flow to implement Google sign in for a web app and an iOS app:

It mentions using the `tokeninfo` endpoint for debugging and for apps with < 100 MAU, and subsequently recommends using an api client to verify the token.
The Ruby client does not seem to have a class to verify tokens like the Java and Python clients. 

If I am trying to follow their advice and not use the tokeninfo endpoint to verify the token in a production environment, how can I accomplish the verification in Ruby?
Will the Signet gem do it for me?

I'm also trying to figure out this. I've also seen stackoverflow question regarding this. But none of them are solved. Why is this so dead?
