I have been looking for a fully functional WSDL client generator for ruby. I tried the one called wsdl2ruby and it didn’t work. I think it has problems with detecting complex types correctly.
Can someone point me to the right library if there is one? I am specifically looking to generate a full functional client for SOAP API provided by jira. I looked into jira4r but it seems to be dead now and not up to date.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you.
From personal experience I would strongly recommend using handsoap for web service clients in Ruby rather than soap4r.
http://github.com/unwire/handsoap
soap4r is an early-days ruby library, hasn’t been updated for a long time, is buggy (from my own experiences with for example generating clients from WSDL) and isn’t a particularly idiomatic ruby API.
handsoap is active, uses curb and nokogiri and was a delight to discover after my soap4r disappointments. Using it in production happily for some time now.
