rforce¶ ↑

DESCRIPTION:¶ ↑

RForce is a simple, usable binding to the Salesforce API.

FEATURES:¶ ↑

Rather than enforcing adherence to the sforce.com schema, RForce assumes you are familiar with the API. Ruby method names become SOAP method names. Nested Ruby hashes become nested XML elements.

SYNOPSIS:¶ ↑

Logging in with a user name and password¶ ↑

binding = RForce::Binding.new \
  'https://www.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/20.0'

binding.login \
  'email', 'password' + 'token'

Logging in with OAuth¶ ↑

oauth = {
  :consumer_key    => '...', # Tokens obtained from Salesforce
  :consumer_secret => '...',
  :access_token    => '...',
  :access_secret   => '...',
  :login_url       => 'https://login.salesforce.com/services/OAuth/u/20.0'
}

binding = RForce::Binding.new \
  'https://www.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/20.0',
  nil,
  oauth

binding.login_with_oauth

Finding a record¶ ↑

answer = binding.search \
  :searchString =>
    'find {McFakerson Co} in name fields returning account(id)'

account = answer.searchResponse.result.searchRecords.record
account_id = account.Id

Creating a record¶ ↑

opportunity = [
               :type,      'Opportunity',
               :accountId, account_id,
               :amount,    '10.00',
               :name,      'Fakey McFakerson',
               :closeDate, '2008-07-04',
               :stageName, 'Closed Won'
              ]
