Redmine REST API follows the Rails's RESTful conventions, so using it with "ActiveResource":http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveResource/Base.html is pretty straightforward.

On Redmine 3.x (Rails 4.2), you need to add 'activeresource' gem.
10
For example, at Gemfile.local:
11
<pre><code class="ruby">
12
gem 'activeresource'
13
</code></pre>

Here is a simple ruby script that demonstrates how to use the Redmine REST API:
16
17
<pre>
18
<code class="ruby">
19
require 'rubygems'
20
require 'active_resource'
21
22
# Issue model on the client side
23
class Issue < ActiveResource::Base
24
  self.site = 'http://redmine.server/'
25
  self.user = 'foo'
26
  self.password = 'bar'
27
end

if false
30
  # Retrieving issues
31
  issues = Issue.find(:all)
32
  puts issues.first.subject
33
end
34 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
35
# Retrieving an issue
36
issue = Issue.find(1)
37
puts issue.description
38
puts issue.author.name
39
40
# Creating an issue
41 2 Jean-Philippe Lang
issue = Issue.new(
42
  :subject => 'REST API',
43
  :assigned_to_id => 1,
44 7 Denis Savitskiy
  :project_id => 1
45 9 Marcin Garski
# custom field with id=2 exist in database
46
  :custom_fields => [{id: 2, value: "IT"}]
47 7 Denis Savitskiy
)
48 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
if issue.save
49
  puts issue.id
50
else
51
  puts issue.errors.full_messages
52
end
53 9 Marcin Garski
54 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
55
# Updating an issue
56
issue = Issue.find(1)
57
issue.subject = 'REST API'
58
issue.save
59
60
# Deleting an issue
61
issue = Issue.find(1)
62 8 Toshi MARUYAMA

Here is an example to set the status of Issue !#9599 to internal status_id 1 with a @net/http@ PUT-request:
