LMCE Web Service
The web service described on this page is used by the iPhone application LmceRemote.
It is a ruby script (see source) run by the Apache web server.
There are a few dependencies that need to be installed first. It would be great to have them installed via debian packages but I had to go for a manual install via ruby gem.
- rubygems
- json
- cgi
- mysql
= Want to help ?
Help is welcome to make the installation of this webservice easier to end users. Topics to cover: - ruby dependencies - initial install - setting-up authentication in apache
Other Webservices
There are other initiatives to provide web services in LMCE:

Both are being considered for this project too.
