A quick hack of a command-line client for ideone.

This library is no longer being maintained. Please use ideone-ruby-api.

Requirements

• Ruby 1.9.2
• savon

Using it

• Register on ideone. Make sure you set up an API password.
• Write some code in a file.
• Add a "language:..." comment within your source file to specify which of the ideone languages you are using. Any substring will do; if you miss, the script will list the languages the site offers. For example:

// language:C++0x

or

# language:ruby-1.9

• Set up a couple environment variables (adapt for your shell of choice):

export IDEONE_USER=your_user_name
export IDEONE_PASSWORD=your_api_password

• Run it like this:

    ruby ideone.rb your_file.cpp

Remember the free accounts at ideone are limited to 1000 submissions a month.
