A Ruby library for verifying and serving OpenID identities.
Before running the examples or writing your own code you‘ll need to install the library. See the INSTALL file or use rubygems:
gem install ruby-openid
Check the installation:
$ irb irb> require 'rubygems' irb> require_gem 'ruby-openid' => true
The library is known to work with Ruby 1.8.4 on Unix, Max OSX and Win32. Examples have been tested with Rails 1.1 and 1.2, and 2.0.
OpenID::Consumer is the place to start if you‘d like to support OpenID authentication on your website. The examples directory contains several working examples to help you get started, and the OpenID::Consumer class is well-documented.
Also, check out the OpenIDLoginGenerator! Read examples/README for more info.
The examples directory contains a fully-functional OpenID server that uses the Ruby on Rails framework. Start by reading about the OpenID::Server interface documentation and looking at the example.
