httparty

I'm working with the Buffer App API with HTTParty to try and add posts via the /updates/create method, but the API seems to ignore my "text" parameter and throws up an error. If I do it via cURL on the command line it works perfectly.

Relatively new to Rails. I am trying to call an API and it's supposed to return a unique URL to me. I have HTTParty bundled on my app. I have created a UniqueNumber controller and I have read through several HTTParty guides as far as what I want but maybe I'm just a bit lost and really have no idea what to do. Basically, all I need to do is call the API, get the URL it returns, then insert that URL into the database for a user. Can anyone point me in the right direction or share some code with me? Let's assume the API is in a JSON format and returns the data like so: {"url": "http://example

I've been trying to use HTTParty in my rails code sudo gem install httparty From the command line I can now successfully do httparty "http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json" When I try this in my rails app require 'rubygems' require 'httparty' class FooController < ApplicationController include HTTParty def bar blah = HTTParty.get("http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json") end end I get the error message "no such file to load -- httparty" I suspect there is something wrong with my environment?
