Reve release 61 is full of changes and new features. Highlighting them is Reve now has a Trac and its home page here on my blog will eventually be migrated over to the Trac including code samples and more comprehensive documentation.
A brief list of what’s changed is:
- Corporations now nest under the Reve::API#alliances call and their ID can be passed to Reve::API#corporation_sheet to get more info from about the Corporation.
- Added an init.rb so people can install Reve as a plugin to a Rails application (Saves having to put it in lib and constantly update it. See RailsPlugin on the trac for details. Thanks to James Harrison for the idea.
- Reading of XML from an arbitrary source for all API calls. Including a file on disk or any other website. Useful for integrating with a caching proxy.
- Saving of XML to disk after a successfully completed API call. Useful to report bugs and to cache things locally. See the previous point!
The RDOC for Reve has been updated as well.
