i want to give request and get xml response so i'm using savon gem
i am facing problem with savon gem.
i tried version 3 and 2.2
with version 3 i face this problem https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20331827/savon-gem-not-getting-xml-response
with version 2.2 i face error unable to authenticate account
response = client.call(:get_models, message: {username: "xxx", secret: "xxx"})
followed savon doc version 2
how can i solve this or suggest any similar gem to savon
I have personally used Savon on several scenarios. I started with other gems (to connect to web services via SOAP), but I ended up moving to Savon. Before selecting another one, please bear in mind the way Savon responds.
There are other options you can find in RubyGems. One of them is HANDSOAP. The useful search will lead you to many others you can choose from depending on your specific needs.
Now I remember having started with soap4r, whose newest version you can find in GitHub.
Hope that helps,

can anyone help me how to create a web service API in rails 4. I know how create web service API in ruby 1.8.7 and rails 2.3.5 with action web service gem. When I am trying to use https://github.com/datanoise/actionwebservice gem in rails 4, I am getting deprecated errors.I want to upgrade my web service app. Please help me.
Rails-API looks promising, because it will be part of Rails core in Rails 5.
Rails-API
Rails-API is a subset of a normal Rails application, because API only applications don't require all functionality that a complete Rails application provides. so, it compatible well with old Rails versions. I don't know compatibility exactly, but I'm using it with Rails 3.2.x
There are another proper framework for this purpose, for example, Sinatra, Grape, but If you familiar with Rails, Rails-API will be the best choice.
Actionwebservice is long deprecated, in favour of REST API's. At my previous job we used a fork of actionwebservice in a rails 3 project.
Since there is no maintainer anymore for the actionwebservice gem, that fork never got merged back. If you check the fork history, a lot of people are fixing and partially updating it, but it is scattered all over the place.
Afaik none of the forks were updated to use rails 4. But using a rails 3 fork might just work.
If you really need to build a SOAP API server with Rails, imho your best option is to take a look at Wash-out, but you will have to re-write your API code.
I'm building an API with Grape on Rails 4.2. Here's a link to the repo on GitHub.
On the frontend, I have a JavaScript application built with EmberJS. Here's the link to the repo on GitHub as well.
I have updated the following gems so that I can format the responses of my API following JSON API standard, which appears to be required to update to Ember 1.13, then to Ember 2.0.
gem "active_model_serializers", '0.10.0.rc2'
gem "grape"
gem "grape-active_model_serializers", :git => 'https://github.com/jrhe/grape-active_model_serializers.git'
After that, I've got the following error when I call the API: IOError: Not opened for reading
According to the information I gathered here and there, I suspect this is a conflict with how I format JSON.
In default.rb, the file that inherit all API controllers, when I comment this line:
formatter :json, Grape::Formatter::ActiveModelSerializers
I don't have any error anymore, but obviously the response isn't serialized.
My questions are:
Do you have any idea how I can solve this?
Do you think it's relevant to use Grape to build the API in my Rails app? With Rails 5 coming, isn't that better to user rails-api and rewrite the whole app? I mean, I'm starting, it's maybe the right time to do that...
Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I ended up rewriting the whole API using jsonapi-resources.
Thanks to the gem https://github.com/ambethia/recaptcha/ (version 0.3.6), I managed to integrate Google Recaptcha into my rails app. The problem is that only the old version (V1) is displayed, similar to below.
However, I would prefer to the newer version with the checkbox like below, which is much easier for the users. Any idea how to get there?
There is some discussion about this, see: https://github.com/ambethia/recaptcha/issues/112
You are free to implement the new API by yourself it's not that hard actually, and if you have the knowledge submit a pull request to the original repository with a working solution :-)
The instructions on how to implement reCaptcha can be found here: http://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/index.html
Is it possible to facebook connect using Capybara-webkit driver?
All the examples I see on the Web are using the "within_window" method (like this one: https://gist.github.com/1187574) which is currently not supported by Capybara-webkit.
Thank you.
I also found only "within_window" examples, but after some more research I found a quite recent pull request on the capybara-webkit repo that solves that issue and adds support for within_window to the capybara-webkit gem
Probably the best way to go is to fetch the gem from Github instead of rubygems.
gem "capybara-webkit", git: "https://github.com/thoughtbot/capybara-webkit.git"
Let me know if it works. I haven't really tested out.
What is the easiest way to work with the Google Docs API in a Ruby on Rails application? Is there a gem available?
I did find this page: Google Data on Rails, is it the most up to date resource?
The google data rails on page is really out of date, at least in a ruby 1.9.3 environment its non useful.
Having a play with the google_drive gem now....
https://github.com/gimite/google-drive-ruby#readme
I was able to get it to work by simply installing it and pasting the readme code into a file. What more can you ask for!?
You can also Bearer universal API client available in Ruby.
This way you can query Google Docs API very easily and don't even have to worry about OAuth or refresh tokens: https://www.bearer.sh/integrations/33/google-docs-api
The Google Docs developers have now released their own gem to work with the API. Here's a guide to getting started: https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/quickstart/ruby
And the gem itself can be downloaded in the normal way from Rubygems: gem install google-api-client
There's more information in the Readme for the gem's source code repository: https://github.com/google/google-api-ruby-client
you can use this gem omniauth-google-oauth2. Make configuration with consumer-key and secret-key. Add gem in Gemfile. Follow github.
