similar to: ActionWebService for many APIs in rails?

I''m currently writing an app that provides a Web Service. I''ve got a model Header and an associated has_one HeaderImage and I''m trying to find a way to make this data available. Defining a normal API: api_method :header, :expects => [{''id'' => :int}], :returns => [Header] Only returns the header object without associations, has anyone got

I have defined a web service to return information from a database as follows. class BackendApi < ActionWebService::API::Base api_method :find_all_vobs, :returns => [[:int]] api_method :find_vob_by_id, :expects => [:int], :returns => [Vob] class BackendController < ApplicationController wsdl_service_name ''Backend''

Hi *, I need to pass a hash to a webservice, so I defined my API with: api_method :search, :expects => [{ :tags => :string, :assignment => :string, :resource => :string, :lesson_plan => :string, :subject => :string, :all_types => :string }], :returns => [[Resource]] when I try to test the webservice with scaffold the

I''ve got something like this: class Position < ActiveRecord::Base end class CartItem < Position validates_uniqueness_of :product_id end When I try to save CartItem I get this error: ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2) from /home/joaz/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/validations.rb:758:in `exists?'' from

<noobalert> Uh, yeah. So my noob self is showing through again. I''m trying to write a simple hello-world type web service with the ActionWebService thingy. I didn''t get very far. I''ve only done web services stuff in .NET, so I''m not exactly used to this sort of thing. Anyhow, I have a file, person_api.rb in my app/apis folder. I want to take a single

I''m using ActionWebService and defining the following API method: api_method(:validate, :expects => [{:id => :int}, {:value => :string}], :returns => [{:valid => :boolean}, {:error_message => :string}]) if I implement this method as follows: def validate(id, value) return true, ''no error'' end I get the following error

I''m working in a web service, actually, I have: class UnifiedLoginApi < ActionWebService::API::Base class CLL_Metadata < ActionWebService::Struct member :key, :string member :type, :string member :value, :string member :webapplication_id, :string member :user_tenfold_id, :string member :login_username, :string

API-> hello_message_api.rb. class HelloMessageApi < ActionWebService::API::Base api_method :hello_message, :expects => [{:firstname=>:string}, {:lastname=>:string}], :returns => [:string] end controller -> class HelloMessageController < ApplicationController web_service_api HelloMessageApi web_service_dispatching_mode :direct wsdl_service_name

So I''m playing with AWS. I''ve got a thing called a gallery. I''d like to return a list of them. I can do this fine if I want to return my ActiveRecord objects: class WxApiApi < ActionWebService::API::Base api_method :list_galleries, :expects=>[{:login=>:string}], :returns => [[Gallery]] end But the ActiveRecord object exposes a

Hi Folks, I''m having trouble with setting up web services with layered dispatching. I''ve defined my controller (backend_controller.rb) as: class BackendController < ApplicationController web_service_dispatching_mode :layered web_service_scaffold :invoke web_service (:car) {CarService.new} end and my service (node_service.rb) as:

Hello, I have seen some odd behaviour of my Web Services code plus some ''similar'' postings to this list, so I believe this may be a bug in Rails. But I''m failry new to RoR, so maybe I''m doing something wrong. I''ll explain: I have a WS API defined, communicating with a remote system that expects a stucture: When defined like this (all

I''d like to split up my directly dispatched controller into a layered dispatch setup with one controller and two services derived from ActionWebService::Base. However, in doing this I found that logger is not a class_variable of AWS::Base. This kind of scares me away from using the layered dispatch mode, as I''d like to have logging in the method implementations. Is there a clean

Okay, I''m try to support two situations "easily". I need to be able to use either ActiveRecord or ActionWebService. So I''m trying to handle this "switch" as transparently as possible. I''m totally open to suggestions.. Thanks, Jason I''m getting the following error: NoMethodError in Offer renewalController#payment_made undefined method

I have a service method that takes a PaymentMethod which can either be a CreditCard or a PayPal account. When I request the service and pass one or the other it always comes over as a PaymentMethod; the service doesn''t seem to know that the parameter is really a CreditCard or PayPal. Here''s some sample code that illustrates what I''m talking about more concretely:

i am reading through chapter 20 of the agile web development book and trying to figure out how to use web services. i set up two different rails apps. one as the server and one as the client. setting up the server seems to work fine. but when i use the example at the end of the chapter to set up a client, i get the following error when i open the page: Missing API definition file in

I''m trying to use the feature of AWS where it will take an object derived from ActiveRecord::Base instead of an AWS::Struct object. Whenever I try it, though, I get the craziest error: NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! The error occured while evaluating nil.new /usr/lib/.../actionwebservice/lib/action_web_service/casting.rb:105:in

hi all, i have been trying to study web services using rails so far i succesful with server implementations in REST,SOAP,XML-RPC but the client code is troubling me. i have done most of the coding as per the rails book agile web development i.e implementations of the servers and when i invoke them they give result but when i try to acces them through another controller it gives time out error

Hi! I try to use a layered webservice and I want to get back an array of users; In the API I use: api_method :listUsers,:returns=>[[User]] in the service: def listUsers User.find(:all) end Result in soap mode: Don''t know how to cast TrueClass to Object Result in XML-RPC mode: You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected

Hi, Why can''t I use a variable to specify the :per_page attribute when using the most basic form of pagination? (if I use a hardcode number, it runs) What did I do? Thx. My code: def list_orders page_size = 20 ... order_pages, @orders = paginate(:orders, :per_page => page_size) end My Errors: undefined method `>'' for false:FalseClass RAILS_ROOT:

Hi, I have a webservice. And I want to pass in, a model. So, for example: api_method :save_person, :expects => [Person] When I do this I get an error saying that I cannot have ActiveRecord objects as parameters. Fine. I can have AWS Structs as parameters. I don''t want to start ''maintaining'' a struct everytime I change the table structure od Persons. So, is
