Just Try To Be a Blogrammer

We all know, Action Web Service (aws) no longer included in Rails 2, this makes me little bit frustation to integrate latest aws (1.2.6) to rails 2, that gems always make rails broken and raise error like this when we start the server

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/rubygems.rb:142:in `activate’: can’t activate actionpack (= 1.13.6, runtime), already activated actionpack-2.2.2 (Gem::Exception)

However, how fortunate me, Achmad Gozali, friend of mine in id-ruby suggested to used this modified aws in github and finally after i tried, my installation was succeed, so here the step

add github to your gem sources

gem sources -a http://gems.github.com/

install datanoise-actionwebservice gems, i use rails 2.2.2, so i should install datanoise-actionwebservice version 2.2.2 as well

gem install datanoise-actionwebservice -v=’2.2.2′

add this line to your config/environtment.rb (inside “Rails::Initializer.run do |config|” block)

config.gem ‘datanoise-actionwebservice’, :lib => ‘actionwebservice’, :version => ‘2.2.2′

try to start your web server, if it isn’t broken, that means your gems was successfully installed

ruby script/start

also you can make the basic code through generation

[aditya@aditya trunk]$ ruby script/generate web_service blabla
exists app/services/
exists app/controllers/
exists test/functional/
create app/services/blabla_api.rb
create app/controllers/blabla_controller.rb
create test/functional/blabla_api_test.rb

credit : thanks to Datanoise guys out there and Achmad Gozali of id-ruby to make this happen
