The humble beginnings of a SODA 2.0 wrapper for Ruby.
SODA is distributed as a gem, which is how it should be used in your app.
Include the gem and hashie in your Gemfile:
gem 'soda-ruby', :require => 'soda'
@client = SODA::Client.new({:domain => "sandbox.demo.socrata.com", :app_token => "K6rLY8NBK0Hgm8QQybFmwIUQw" })
