hello robert and everyone
I'm just working on shindig with rails site.
Though I don't know about metadata server, but you can call rails
itself from java.
Java Scripting (only Java 6) can call any script language inside java
code.
This is a sample code
RailsEngine.java
==
import javax.script.*;
public class RailsEngine {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ScriptException,
Exception {
ScriptEngine engine = new
ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("jruby");
System.setProperty("jruby.home", "/usr/local/jruby");
engine.eval("require 'RAILS_ROOT/jruby_init.rb'");
Invocable inv = (Invocable) engine;
Object user =
engine.eval("User.find_by_username('matake').following");
if (user != null) {
Object userJson = inv.invokeMethod(user, "to_json");
System.out.println(userJson);
} else {
System.out.println("User not found");
}
}
==
jruby_init.rb
==
$LOAD_PATH.unshift(
ENV['JRUBY_HOME'] + '/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8',
ENV['JRUBY_HOME'] + '/lib/ruby/site_ruby',
ENV['JRUBY_HOME'] + '/lib/ruby/1.8',
ENV['JRUBY_HOME'] + '/lib/ruby/1.8/java',
'lib/ruby/1.8/java'
).uniq!
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/config/environment.rb'
