I would like to make a SOAP API based on OpenAxisGroup Configuration. Can anyone help me with a gem or tutorial for the same? I have already seen wash_out, but would like a more frequently maintained and modified gem.
Thanks.
You can try Savon. It is a popular SOAP client for the Ruby programming language.

I am looking to connect with an API (documentation: http://carsolize.com/carsolize_API_v2.5.pdf).
To get started in a good direction how would you do this? (What gems/methods would I use?, any tips highly appreciated!)
I recommend using Savon: https://github.com/savonrb/savon it helps you create SOAP request neatly. Check out the documentation here.
per the Sentry documentation:
...Sentry is not limited to Python. The primary implementation is in Python, but it contains a full API for sending events from any language, in any application.
There is a gem called 'sentry' however it is a encryption library having to with OpenSSH and totally unrelated.
Is there a Rails Client for hooking to Sentry already or some other comparable technology out there which can be used with Rails?
If not, +1 for a Rails Sentry Client
As I write this (last updated May 2015), the Sentry docs list clients for Java, JavaScript, Node.js, PHP, Python, and Ruby.
It is a bit hidden, but in the hosted version (dont know if its in the open source version too) you can find information about Ruby and RoR integration on this page:
https://app.getsentry.com/account/projects/PROJEKCT-SLUG/docs/
So it looks like they have Ruby support, but dont tell us on there webpage.
EDIT: I found this: https://github.com/coderanger/raven-ruby
When logged in, there is a reference to https://github.com/coderanger/raven-ruby in the docs.
I am going to make a very simple web application. I only need the friend list of the current user and then send a message to a selected user with an image/text. I have looked after gems that wraps the detail of extracting data from Facebook and I found some gems, but they all use the old REST API. First of all: is it bad to use the REST API? If not, is "Facebooker" a good gem? If it is bad I found this Which Ruby gems support the Facebook API? but I don't see much of documentation for the Facebooker2. Are there other options?
i'm using koala - works with OAuth authentication and Facebook Graph API. Didn't have any serious problems with it, and it's pretty well documented (with examples) on github
The Ruby Toolbox is a great resource for this kind of question.
In your case, try searching for 'facebook' -- as in https://www.ruby-toolbox.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=facebook -- and you'll find that https://github.com/nov/fb_graph is a popular and well-maintained FB gem (at least riight now).
Since Facebook introduced the Open Graph API I've found it's pretty easy to just roll my own wrapper for the REST calls I need using an http client like HTTParty or RestClient. YMMV.
I'm trying to consume a SOAP web service, (from SharePoint 2010 if it makes a difference). I'm using Ruby 1.9 and Rails 3. What is the best way to do this? I've read some stuff mentioning Savon http://savonrb.com/ but that is was too new and buggy. Is it still the best solution? Thanks.
I used Savon successfully to interact with the Bullhorn Staffing SOAP based service about six months ago. I didn't have any problems with the Savon Gem, all my headaches came from inconsistencies with the service.
My interactions with their service was limited to getting data (simple) and pushing data, which could include a resume file (more complex). I didn't have to look much further than the Savon doc to figure everything out, which I thought was simple to understand and easy to apply to my particular set of problems.
TLDR; 1 vote for Savon despite what you may have heard.
I used savon to interact with Jira SOAP API and it worked fine.
I am developing an API in Ruby on Rails 3 and I would like to secure it with Oauth2.
In other words, I need to create an Oauth provider. Is there a working gem for Rails 3 out there or perhaps a tutorial on the issue?
UPDATE
I know Rails are REST based so I find it very strange that there are no tutorials on how to create a public API and secure it. Does anyone know of any good tutorials. Preferable with oAuth.
Thankful for all help!!
Check out this gem https://github.com/applicake/doorkeeper
It is for Rails 3, the development it's early stages though.
There's also an example app that you take a look and see how the API is done.

I've opensourced an OAuth2 server implementation yesterday.
It's well documented and there is a dashboard to control accesses. Right now I'm searching for somebody who wants to build an engine starting from it, or something cool on top of rack. That's why it is open-source.
https://github.com/intridea/oauth2 is the canonical gem right now for OAuth2 dev. If you are looking for a more complete solution, instead of rolling your own provider code, check out:
https://github.com/songkick/oauth2-provider
https://github.com/freerange/oauth2-provider
But I suggest messing around with the oauth2 gem if you aren't very familiar with the flow so that you can learn it better.
If you are using (or planning to use) devise for authentication, you can use https://github.com/socialcast/devise_oauth2_providable as plugin.
I'm developing a rugygem for OAuth2 provider, Rack::OAuth2.
https://github.com/nov/rack-oauth2
It requires to develop models (token, code, client etc) by yourself, but you can get a whole Rails3 sample OAuth2 server here.
https://github.com/nov/rack-oauth2-sample
I'm looking to implement an OAuth2 provider, too! I'm currently experimenting with this https://github.com/assaf/rack-oauth2-server, which seems to be a full-featured OAuth2 server, though it still supports only MongoDB, although implementing support for other DBMS seems simple enough. I am also looking at some of the other options posted here, lots of promising stuff!
"Doorkeeper is a gem that makes it easy to introduce OAuth 2 provider functionality to your application."
