Methane was supposed to be a ruby cross-platform Campfire client.
The idea was to build the GUI using qtruby and qt-webkit. Where HTML UI elements (with Tempo.js/jQuery) inside a webkit frame communicate through a websocket with the the backend (EventMachine + tweetstream + tinder).
I failed to get a stable build (qtruby keept crashing for any unknown reason) so I discontinued any development.
Who knows, I might or not get back to this idea with a smarter approach. Till then feel free to play with it and hack around.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'methane'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install methane
Building qtruby might take some time. Please be patient, after what just run:
$ bundle exec methane
