Have been using Savon for my webservice stuff so far, but need to talk to a more "secure" service now, needing WS Addressing and WS Security Extensions.
Have started to extend this fork of Savon to handle it, but then found WSO2 WSF/Ruby - so wondering if anyone has any experience of it, pros/cons etc. That is, is it worth my switching to it? I cant see much out there about it, besides on their own site - their forums seem awfully quiet, which does not bode well.
Currently dev on OSX/Snow Leopard, deploying on CentOS.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
It does not seem so (from the lack of replies...)

My first post.
I have experience of basic java servlet and jsp and have got my webpage implemented in tomcat7.
Regarding Websocket, I am finding difficult to build understanding of how to implement it, i want to use tomcat8 implementation of websocket api and uplift my webpage (jsp, java, jquery, tomcat7) to use the websocket features, have not been able to find the the tutorial that can guide me through, something like hello world example. any pointers (sample codes, tutorials)?
have tried to understand tomcat8 examples but not understanding them at all
You need to understand that you don't just "add" WebSocket to an existing web application.. to make it faster, better, cheaper, more scalable, etc. Instead, you have to completely re-architect the web-layer of the application to take advantage of its capabilities.
I suggest that you first read a lot about WebSocket and what the whole idea is before you try to write any code, using Tomcat or any other WebSocket-capable server.
Nick Williams has a forthcoming book that appears to cover everything in the web application world, and as I understand it, will have a great deal of information about WebSocket-based code. You will unfortunately have to wait until March 2013 (at least) to use that particular book.
I'm sure there are similar books available, or even online tutorials to help get you started using WebSocket. Just be aware that switching to WebSocket isn't some simple configuration option: it's a very disruptive change to any existing web application.
I have inherited a Windows Server and I have to deploy a django app on it.
Have anyone tried to benchmark http servers with django support on this platform?
Which one is fastest?
Use-case of my application would be:
not so much writes to db
heavy usage of admin panel
display tons of results
Have you looked at either wamp or xampp? They both deliver Apache/MySQL/PHP-and-Perl on a Windows platform. But you need more because neither includes Python. See this SO thread for how to proceed from there. Note, you may encounter problems. See this SO thread for an example.
Ps. Personally, I would just get a an account that supports Django (e.g. webfaction.com) and not screw around with this.
I run a Django site on Windows using Apache. I've posted a write up about some of the hurdles that you're going to face.
Which set of libraries and tools would you recommend to use for development SOAP-service on Ruby 1.9 - soap-tools, web-servers, or maybe a web-framework?
I have researched this myself. As far as I can tell, there is just one current implementation:
wash_out
It is a very nice to do SOAP in Rails. It does the most basic stuff but it isn't a complete SOAP implementation. I think you are in for a world of hurt if you are building a SOAP service on Rails.
Soap Ui is a pretty good way to test/debug/etc.
Good luck!
Take a look at http://aws.rubyonrails.org/, when it's explained how to create web services within RubyOnRails.
SOAP doesn't seem to be popular in Ruby land. The only library for creating services I know of is SOAP4R (which comes bundled with Ruby), and the documentation for it isn't very detailed.
There are a bunch of services (dyndns, nettica, etc.) that offer API's but I'm having trouble with Nettica's and I was just wondering if anyone has a nice gem suggestion for any of the DNS services... I'm not set on one or the other.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Chad
This just in, Nettica does work as intended, but you need to buy the bulk DNS service in order to enable the AddRecord API call....... wasn't documented clearly but their support was able to point this out.
What is a good approach to a client proxy written in ruby that I can use to create a custom filter.
So far I've found
Ruby Proxy using webrick
Mousehole, a scriptable Ruby proxy by _why (UPDATE this was not robust)
A little on the fringe, this guy wants to Use rack as thin proxy with his question. I don't think he got an answer; or even a hint that it was possible.
What is your advice on these suggested approaches or do you have a better approach.
Thanks!
I can’t speak on personal experience as I’ve not done this myself, but I have heard of mouseHole before and it seems to be a good package. Why not try writing a simple script for it and see how you find it?
There are also some sample scripts in that repository that you could check out.
