RESTRack::Splitter

A library for interacting with RESTful web services with automatic distribution across multiple nodes of a cluster. This gem was written to communicate with RESTRack based services, although it provides a convenient API to any RESTful service.

uri = URI.new('http://foobar-provider.example.com')
provider = RESTRack::Splitter.new(uri)
provider = RESTRack::Splitter.new('http://foobar-provider.example.com')
foo = provider.foo(123).get                                       # request is made to GET /foo/123, foo will be an array of responses
foo_resource = provider.foo(123)                                  # pivot object that hasn't yet made request
foo = foo_resource.get( { :data => 'something_here' } )           # request is made to GET /foo/123, foo will be an array of responses
bar = provider.foo(123).bar                                       # pivot object that hasn't yet made request
bar.delete                                                        # request is made to DELETE /foo/123/bar from each node
bar = provider.foo(123).bar.post( { :data => 'something_here' } ) # request is made to POST /foo/123/bar, bar will be an array of responses
