Question

I have a web page created in Joomla. How do I get the content of that page into my Rails app’s page ?

Answer 1

Thanks for your hint @chrisBarretto. There wasn’t any rss feed associated with the joomla page. However, I managed to grab the content from Joomla page with just using Nokogiri.

Here’s what I did in the controller :

 @page = Nokogiri::HTML(open(" ... <joomla page url>...")) 

Then in the view,

<%=raw @page.css("body table").first.to_s :%> 

This worked perfectly as I wanted to be.
