Thanks!

They''re different in my opinion. Httparty make making http requests
nice, whereas mechanize is more  about interacting with web pages (so
it has a bunch of features to do with cookies, filling out forms and
so on).

Hi all,

I need to do POST/PUT operation using httparty.

I have a default class as follows

require ''httparty''

class Webclient
 include HTTParty

  def intialize(options = {})
  # parameters to build the url
  end
end

with the help of httparty,
i can easily use get operation as follows

Webclient.get("url")

Can anyone give me an example of how to do POST/PUT operations through
httparty over a Rest webservice, where i need to post/Put the entire XML

for example,
XML content is like below
<ns:sample xmlns:ns="somelocation">
<attributes></attributes>
</ns:sample>

I need to post/put the whole xml content using HTTParty as

Webclient.post(url,"XMLContent")
Webclient.put(url,"XMLContent")

can any one give me an example of how to post/put the whole xml using
httparty under a class which includes httparty

Thanks in advance
