Is it possible to drop a Ruby script (around 50 lines) into one of
your Rails pages? I am experimenting with doing this but I haven't had
any luck in finding out how.
As Colin Law said you cannot execute it in the browser but there are
probably other things you can do. You could put it in a helper file and
invoke it from the view or you could embed it in the view (xx.html.erb)
between <%= and %> and it would be interpreted and its output would go
out to the browser.
An example of what I am trying to do is to place a script like this
https://github.com/johnyerhot/rquote/blob/master/lib/rquote.rb and see
if I can't drop it into a page like this simple view I made in
Rails and have it print out the(stock) info on the page. I've already
gotten it to print out a "Hello World" so I know everything is set up
and running properly, just need to find out how to execute and print
it to the page.
Here is the code for the script, the controller and view is this
