A Ruby Driver for Q

[Philip1]

HiI have been working with Q and as part of that we wanted to build outan application using Ruby/Rails that interacted with a Q instance.Since the drivers to support connecting from other languages areavailable freely I thought I’d share the one we created.http://github.com/pdodds/q-ruby-driverBasically it is a pure Ruby implementation (and it is still indevelopment as we build out functionality), you can grab the sourceand then install the gem using rake gem:install. This allows for youto connect and interact with Q directly from Ruby. Also it allows forthe use of technologies such as RSpec/Cucumber to allow building up oftestcases for you Q functions - I might write up that approach in ablog post if anyone is interested.You can see the basic tests for the driver inhttp://github.com/pdodds/q-ruby-driver/blob/master/spec/q-ruby-driver_spec.rbfor those interested in the approach.If anyone is interested in learning more or helping out please do pingmeCheersP
