[SSasidaran]

Hi All,

I want to use PHP function in ruby code. I want to pass ruby variables to php function. And can anyone say how to run call a php function in ruby model.

Ruby Model

class test < ActiveRecord::Base
 
def sample 
 a1 = "username"
 a2 = "value"
 
// here i need to use php funtion that will be using the ruby variable
 
end
end
 
PHP File
<?php
function sas($username , $value)
{
echo "Test PHP Program";
echo $username;
echo $value;
}
echo "OUT";
?>
 

Does any body has idea about Serialize in ruby so that i can store the variables and i can use stored variables and i can unserialize in PHP.

Please help me. Thanks in advance.

passing the value as command line php argument in ruby soved the problem

%x= [/usr/local/apache/php php/frist.php choclates,snacks]
 

and in php this can be read by

print $argv[1];
print $argv[2];
