Hi there,

I'm researching the ins and outs of writing a (open source) Gem that
delivers an API library for a REST API that is provided by a non Rails
app.

I'd love for this to ultimately have the same outcome as if one used
ActiveResource to map Rails REST API endpoints/resources as models in
your Rails app.  The goal would be to be able to operate/iterate over
endpoints as if they were a part of the model.

I have contributed to two open source Gems that achieve the above for
a REST API exposed by an IIS deployed app (!!), and have a notion that
using Net::HTTP and Nokogiri is the way forward (along with webmock
and factory_girl for testing).

Would you have any other suggestions/options for me to consider?  Do
you have a favourite Gem that implements the above for a given REST
API?  I'd love to learn from the anatomy of existing well thought out
implementations.

Thanks
Abhinav
