Using Constant Contact API with Ruby on Rails (gem options, examples, etc)

[SIMsask]

I'm trying to use Constant Contact with a Rails app and need to know what the best gem is, and see some baic examples of using the API (ie. adding a person's email to a Constant Contact email list).  By googling I only see a couple partly-finished gems, and no good tutorials.

Thanks,

Hey Greg,

I will see if i can get some examples together for you.  It may take some time to get the information together as I am not familiar with Ruby.

Actually I just found an entry on the message boards (through googling) that addresses this partially.  If you could post the information within your Developer Code Samples section and other appropriate sections, that would be much appreciated. (see details in the message I've pasted below)

 Hey all,

I've been maintaining the constant_contact gem (can be found here: https://rubygems.org/gems/constant_contact)

It's an ActiveResource wrapper for the Constant Contact API.  It works quite well and I'm using it in production.

@someone-from-constant-contact: Maybe you can add this under the "Open Source Libraries" section of http://developer.constantcontact.com/doc/LinksOfInterest, since there are no Ruby libraries there.

Thanks, and I welcome your feedback!
