grid_rest¶ ↑

grid_rest is a gem that makes your rails application interact with other backends through a REST interface. It is build in a situation where one rails application was talking to 2 java backends. The main development focus is JSON communication, but XML should be just as easy.

These configurations should be put in config/grid_rest.yml:

include_in:
- ActiveRecord::Base
- ActionController::Base
extend: ActiveRecord::Base  
development:
  url_prefix: '/api/1.0'
  host: localhost
  port: 20400
  logging: true

production:
  url_prefix: '/api/1.0'
  host: localhost
  port: 20400
  logging: true

test:
  url_prefix: '/api/1.0'
  host: localhost
  port: 20400
  logging: true

include_in:
- ActiveRecord::Base
- ActionController::Base
extend: ActiveRecord::Base  
development:
  zieook_workflow:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0/"
    host: localhost
    port: 20200
    logging: true
  zieook_data:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0"
    host: localhost
    port: 20100
    logging: true

production:
  zieook_workflow:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0/"
    host: localhost

    logging: true
  zieook_data:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0"
    host: localhost
    port: 20100
    logging: false

test:
  zieook_workflow:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0/"
    host: localhost
    port: 20200
    logging: true
  zieook_data:
    url_prefix: "/api/1.0"
    host: localhost
    port: 20100
    logging: true
