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
