Hi,
I wrote pure Ruby code for consuming an existing web service. The
requests are send via net/http and are in XML format. That means I
have Ruby classes that look like this:
class Request
def initialize(myrequest)
.....--> send myrequest via net/http to the web service
end
end
To use that class I have the following code:
f = Request.new("This is a request").xml
p f
Now I want to make a rails web form where I can type my request and
send that to my existing classes to perform the request. All I found
via search were forms that worked with databases. I don't need a
database for that functionality. (I will need it later, when I store
the results, but that comes later!)
I already created a rails project and put my ruby file in the lib
folder. In my controller I have the following:
f = Request.new("This is a request").xml
@out = p f
So I am able to get the result of that request in my view via <%=@out
%>, but that is static.
How can I send "This is a request" via a web form from my view to that
ruby file?
I have no clue how to start. Again everything I find about rails is
database stuff.
I really hope that someone can help me here and give a clue how I can
start.
Cheers,
Sebastian
