INSTALLATION

1) Enable gems from github, if you haven’t already done so (rubygems >= 1.2):

    > sudo gem sources -a http://gems.github.com

2) Install gem

    > sudo gem install Floppy-eeml

STATUS

The code can current create EEML at a level equivalent to the "complete" EEML example at http://eeml.org/xml/005/complete.xml, and parse the "minimal" level at http://eeml.org/xml/005/minimal.xml

To parse EEML: call EEML::Environment#from_eeml(your_eeml_string), and you will get back an EEML::Environment object containing a number of EEML::Data objects.

To create EEML: create an EEML::Environment object, add one or more EEML::Data objects to it, and call EEML::Environment#to_eeml.

EXAMPLES

The file examples/simple_server.rb contains a simple WEBrick server which serves an EEML document. This allows a site like Pachube (http://www.pachube.com) to fetch EEML data from your system.
