What is it?

Sinatra ruby server implementing QBWC callbacks in < 75 LOC

Introduction

I've blogged extensively on QuickBooks integration in Rails.

The short story is that working with ActionWebService sucks.

mini-qbwc is an experiment in simplicity and non-suckiness.

Prerequisites

  • Sinatra
  • Hpricot
  • fast_xs

Setup

1) Install prerequisites

$ sudo gem install sinatra hpricot fast_xs

2) Clone project

$ git clone git://github.com/zackchandler/qbwc-mini.git

3) Start server

$ ruby qbwc.rb

4) Install app.qwc in QBWC and run sync
