Hi. I know this is a very old issue, but I'm going to reply here anyway, in case someone else comes accross it.

The cloudprint gem can be used in a Rails app, and that's why I wrote it initially. However, it can just as well be used from within a Sinatra app, or even a command line script.

WIthin a Rails app, you would generate an OAuth2 authorization link and show that to your users, and set up a controller action to which they would be redirected after authorizing your app. When they'd get there, you would save the code Google adds as a parameter to their request.

After exchanging that code for a refresh token, you would store it in a model somewhere and use it when calling CloudPrint.setup()

This project's README has since been updated, and I have some improvements planned to simplify all the OAuth2 goo one needs in order to use this gem.
