Sample ruby program to talk to an exchange server

Ruby
#1

Hi, I’m looking for a sample programm to test the communication with an
exchange server - connect, inquire data, add data, delete entry …
I was asked to check these possibilities but have no ruby experience.
Would very much appreciate any help.

Thank you in advance,
Dany

Here is a sample program that uses Redemption Data Objects (
http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/rdo/default.htm ) to retrieve the
Global Address List from Outlook 2003 connected to Exchange.

exchange server using soap.

Perhaps something here http://rubygems.org/gems/viewpoint could help.

I’ve used SOAP from Ruby but never against Exchange.

The WSDL would be at https://exchange.example.com/EWS/Services.wsdl,
you also need https://exchange.example.com/EWS/messages.xsd and
https://exchange.example.com/EWS/types.xsd to be able to run
wsdl2ruby.rb on the wsdl.

/tmp> /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/soap4r-1.5.8/bin/wsdl2ruby.rb --type
client --wsdl Services.wsdl

But, it fails:

FATAL – app: Detected an exception. Stopping … incomplete
simpleType (ArgumentError)

/tmp> ls -latr
-rw-r–r-- 1 43041 2010-07-15 16:04 defaultDriver.rb
-rw-r–r-- 1 0 2010-07-15 16:04 default.rb

I’m sorry that this isn’t more useful, but maybe somebody knows how to
overcome this.

I’ve done a little of this using the IMAP connection and the net/imap
library. Its worked pretty well for me for some calendar stuff I
wanted to do. I can post it if you like its about 250 lines of code
though.

(apparently, wsdl2ruby.rb did work for him)
