=Ruby OpenID
A Ruby library for verifying and serving OpenID identities.
==Features
* Easy to use API for verifying OpenID identites - OpenID::Consumer
* Support for serving OpenID identites - OpenID::Server
* Does not depend on underlying web framework
* Supports multiple storage mechanisms (Filesystem, ActiveRecord, Memory)
* Example code to help you get started, including:
* Ruby on Rails based consumer and server
* OpenIDLoginGenerator for quickly getting creating a rails app that uses
OpenID for authentication
* ActiveRecordOpenIDStore plugin
* Comprehensive test suite
* Supports both OpenID 1 and OpenID 2 transparently
==Installing
Before running the examples or writing your own code you'll need to install
the library. See the INSTALL file or use rubygems:
gem install ruby-openid
Check the installation:
$ irb
irb> require 'rubygems'
irb> require_gem 'ruby-openid'
=> true
The library is known to work with Ruby 1.8.4 on Unix, Max OSX and
Win32. Examples have been tested with Rails 1.1 and 1.2, and 2.0.
==Getting Started
The best way to start is to look at the rails_openid example.
You can run it with:
cd examples/rails_openid
script/server
If you are writing an OpenID Relying Party, a good place to start is:
examples/rails_openid/app/controllers/consumer_controller.rb
And if you are writing an OpenID provider:
examples/rails_openid/app/controllers/server_controller.rb
The library code is quite well documented, so don't be squeamish, and
look at the library itself if there's anything you don't understand in
the examples.
