Google Calendar Ruby API - ruby

Question

I'm working on an app that needs to update a google calendar.
By following the Google Calendar Developer Guide at:
http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/v3/using.html#creating_events
event = {
'summary' => 'Appointment',
'location' => 'Somewhere',
'start' => {
'dateTime' => '2011-06-03T10:00:00.000-07:00'
},
'end' => {
'dateTime' => '2011-06-03T10:25:00.000-07:00'
}
}
result = client.execute(:api_method => service.events.insert,
:parameters => {'calendarId' => 'primary'},
:body => JSON.dump(event),
:headers => {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'})
I get the following error:
TypeError (Expected body to respond to :each.):
I have tried to do event.to_json as well.

Just a couple of suggestions from the top of my head which may help. Please try them and inform us if these help.
Wrap :body into array:
result = client.execute(:api_method => service.events.insert,
:parameters => {'calendarId' => 'primary'},
:body => [JSON.dump(event)],
:headers => {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'})
Or use:body_object instead of body, and don't jsonify the event hash:
result = client.execute(:api_method => service.events.insert,
:parameters => {'calendarId' => 'primary'},
:body_object => event,
:headers => {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'})
Take a look at http://code.google.com/p/google-api-ruby-client/source/browse/lib/google/api_client/reference.rb, and you'll understand how I came up with these suggestions.
