Getting Started with HP Cloud Extensions to Ruby Fog Bindings

HP Cloud has been creating and contributing bindings so that developers can work with Ruby Fog and the HP Cloud services based on OpenStack. By using the HP Cloud Extensions to Fog, developers can write applications using Ruby that interacts with the HP Cloud Services without having to deal with the underlying REST API or JSON/XML document formats. We have officially turned these bindings over to the Ruby Fog community where you can contribute and develop additional functionality around these bindings.

This section of documentation provides information, examples and articles for working with the different HP Cloud services such as Compute, Object Storage and others.

Please note that HP Cloud recently released version 13.5 which updates and adds functionality provided by OpenStack Havana. Some of our HP Ruby Fog examples are developed to work with earlier versions so please take note which HP Cloud version you are working with.

Note: The Networking service examples only work with version 13.5.

Installation

To install and use HP Cloud Ruby bindings for Fog, please install the latest release of Fog.

Then follow the installation instructions for the operating system you are using and connect to the service:
