Hi, I’m wondering if there are any good examples of doing e-commerce using
Ruby. Thanks

I’m not sure what qualifies as e-commerce.

I think there is a BuskPay or something in
the RAA.

And I tried to write a PayPal interface
script once. It never worked, but I’ll
share it with anyone who wants some
non-working code. :slight_smile:

I know Dave Thomas is going to give a talk on the subject.
Perhaps one day he will publish his experience online, please Dave :slight_smile:

What I thought about e-commerce is as follow:

  1. it has a cataloging mechanism(w/RDBMS or OOBMS
    interface)
  2. AAA - Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting
    mechanism
  3. Encryption/SSL capability
  4. Interfacing with the major credit-card and/or payment
    system
  5. and other requirement I’m sure I missed and its important as well.

Perhaps we can find each item above individually but not yet integrated as
Ruby package.

I’d love to see some basic working skeleton/foundation examples that we all
can learn and improve it over time. Perhaps RAA would take charge and build
some mini-standard for e-commerce functionality using Ruby.

Thanks

PS: Please excuse my english.
