This Ruby example shows how to retrieve your most recent email as an atom XML feed from the Google Apps website.



require 'rubygems'

require 'httpclient'



url = "https://mail.google.com/a/yourwebsite.com/feed/atom"

client = HTTPClient.new

client.debug_dev = STDOUT if $DEBUG

client.set_auth(url, 'yourname@yourwebsite.com', 'yourpassword')

resp = client.get(url)

Note: You might require to gem install httpclient.

// This snippet will allow you to show your DZONE shares
// on your web page. Visit your shares page, click on the "feed" link
// to get the URL of your personal shares feed then paste it in the first line
// in the script.



var sharedURL='';  // Place your url between the quotes.



function getFeed(url, callback) {

   var newScript = document.createElement('script');

       newScript.type = 'text/javascript';

       newScript.src = 'http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/9oyONQzA2xGOkM4FqGIyXQ/run?&_render=JSON&_callback='+callback+'&feed=' + sharedURL;

   document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(newScript);

}



function dzone(feed) {

   var tmp='';

   for (var i=0; i      tmp+='';

      tmp+=feed.value.items[i].title+'
';

   }

   document.getElementById('dzoneLinks').innerHTML=tmp;

}



getFeed(sharedURL, 'dzone');

// Paste that code at the end of your page. In your HTML place the following two divisions
// where you would like your feed to appear. (feel free to style the divisions however you wish)
// you can add to/subtract from the outer division but the inner division will always be overwritten
// with your shares.
