Net::HTTP Cheat Sheet
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Norwegian Rubyist August Lilleaas has been busy putting together a ton of examples of using the Net::HTTP Ruby library that comes with most Ruby distributions.

The Official Ruby Site Is Proudly Maintained by No-One
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Official project sites should set the benchmark for standards relating to that project in terms of the best quality and most up to date news updates, documentation, download links, tutorials, and so forth. On this front, Ruby's official site at ruby-lang.org is doing a bad job (in the English language variant, at least). U

How to Play with Rails 3.1, CoffeeScript and All That Jazz Right Now
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Maybe I'm weird (actually, there's no maybe about it) but when I first heard about Rails 3.1 getting CoffeeScript and Sass out of the box, I wanted to see how it worked and how smooth the process would be. So like quite a few people on IRC I've seen, I installed edge Rails (currently 3.1.0-beta) and got playing. (Yes, it's

Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Guess what?

I'm going to quickly run through the details here. jQuery - A Non-Controversial Switch It was back in March (2011) when David Heineme
The End of Monkeypatching
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Monkey-patching is so 2010. We're in the future, and with Github and Bundler there is now rarely a need to monkey-patch Ruby code in your applications. Monkey-patching is the dangerous-yet-frequently-useful technique of re-opening existing classes to change or add to their behavior. For example, if I have always felt that
Happy 18th Birthday, Ruby!
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Yes, I'm sad enough to have had this in my calendar for some time but.. it's Ruby's 18th "birthday" today! Happy Birthday Ruby! While this means it can drink, vote, and otherwise join its slightly older friends Perl (24) and Python (21) in the nightclubs of Europe, I was surprised to learn that coming of age in Japan is at

Ruby-Core Speaks on Ruby 1.8.8, 1.9.3 and 2.0
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. You may imagine that the ruby-core mailing list is a 24/7 programming disco dealing with core Ruby implementation topics.. but no, it's usually a low-traffic list with calm discussion of bugs and patches. This week, however, some Interesting Stuff™ has happened and the kimono has been lifted on a few issues including, nota
MacRuby + Mac App Store == Low Hanging Fruit for Rubyists
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. At its "Back To Mac" presentation yesterday, Apple unveiled the Mac App Store, an equivalent of the iOS App Store for the Mac.

RDoc: Some Alternative Ways Of Looking At Documentation
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. The great thing about the Ruby language is that there’s always multiple ways of doing things.

Typhoeus: A High Speed, Parallel HTTP Library for Ruby
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Paul Dix, of Feedzirra fame, strikes again! This time with Typhoeus (Github repo), a high-speed, parallel HTTP request library for Ruby.

23 Useful Ruby 1.9 Links and Resources

llvmruby: A Compiler Toolkit Available to Rubyists
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news.

Cucumber: The Latest in Ruby Testing
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Testing is a firmly ingrained part of the Ruby culture: you probably ran across Test::Unit not long after you first started writing Ruby code (though it wouldn't be surprising if you ignored it for a while). But it hasn't been a static part of Ruby - we've seen the simple availability of tests evolve into test-driven devel
Ruby’s New FFI Library: Calling External Libraries Just Got A Whole Lot Easier
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. Charles Nutter, of the core JRuby team, writes: One of the largest problems plaguing Ruby implementations [..] is the ever-painful story of "extensions". In general, these take the form of a dynamic library, usually written in C, that plugs into and calls Ruby's native API as exposed through ruby.h and libruby. The many co
Apple and Ruby: The Ongoing Relationship
Ruby Weekly is a weekly newsletter covering the latest Ruby and Rails news. While it was pretty momentous last year when Mac OS X (Leopard) was released with full support for Ruby and Rails included with the OS, it seems that the Ruby train is still rolling with Apple.
