== DESCRIPTION:

RForce is a simple, usable binding to the SalesForce API.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

Rather than enforcing adherence to the sforce.com schema, RForce assumes you are familiar with the API. Ruby method names become SOAP method names. Nested Ruby hashes become nested XML elements.

== SYNOPSIS:

  binding = RForce::Binding.new \
    'https://www.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/10.0'

  binding.login \
    'email', 'password_with_token'

  answer = binding.search \
    :searchString =>
      'find {McFakerson Co} in name fields returning account(id)'

  account = answer.searchResponse.result.searchRecords.record
  account = account.first if account.is_a? Array

  account_id = account.Id
  account_id = account_id.first if account_id.is_a? Array

  opportunity = [
                 :type,      'Opportunity',
                 :accountId, account_id,
                 :amount,    '10.00',
                 :name,      'Fakey McFakerson',
                 :closeDate, '2008-07-04',
                 :stageName, 'Closed Won'
                ]

  binding.create :sObject => opportunity

== REQUIREMENTS:
