# Buzz Ruby Sample #
|
||||
This is a simple starter project written in Ruby which provides a minimal
|
||||
example of Buzz integration within a Sinatra web application.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've run the starter project and played with the features it provides,
|
||||
this starter project provides a great place to start your experimentation into
|
||||
the API.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites ##
|
||||
Please make sure that all of these are installed before you try to run the
|
||||
sample.
|
||||
|
||||
- Ruby 1.8.7+
|
||||
- Ruby Gems 1.3.7+
|
||||
- Are you on a Mac? If so, be sure you have XCode 3.2+
|
||||
- A few gems (run 'sudo gem install <gem name>' to install)
|
||||
-- sinatra
|
||||
-- httpadapter
|
||||
-- extlib
|
||||
-- dm-sqlite-adapter
|
||||
-- google-api-ruby-client
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup Authentication ##
|
||||
|
||||
This API uses OAuth 2.0. Learn more about Google APIs and OAuth 2.0 here:
|
||||
http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth2.html
|
||||
|
||||
Or, if you'd like to dive right in, follow these steps.
|
||||
- Visit https://code.google.com/apis/console/ to register your application.
|
||||
- From the "Project Home" screen, activate access to "Buzz API".
|
||||
- Click on "API Access" in the left column
|
||||
- Click the button labeled "Create an OAuth2 client ID"
|
||||
- Give your application a name and click "Next"
|
||||
- Select "Web Application" as the "Application type"
|
||||
- Under "Your Site or Hostname" select http:// as the protocol and enter
|
||||
"localhost" for the domain name
|
||||
- click "Create client ID"
|
||||
|
||||
Edit the buzz.rb file and enter the values for the following properties that
|
||||
you retrieved from the API Console:
|
||||
|
||||
- oauth_client_id
|
||||
- oauth_client_secret
|
||||
|
||||
Or, include them in the command line as the first two arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
## Running the Sample ##
|
||||
|
||||
I'm assuming you've checked out the code and are reading this from a local
|
||||
directory. If not check out the code to a local directory.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Start up the embedded Sinatra web server
|
||||
|
||||
$ ruby buzz.rb
|
||||
|
||||
2. Open your web browser and see your activities! Go to http://localhost:4567/
|
||||
|
||||
3. Be inspired and start hacking an amazing new web app!
