Use this gem to parse multipart messages into coherent Ruby-flavoured pieces.
Imagine your API vendor returns you a multipart body that looks like this:
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50
Content-Type: text/xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><S:Body /></S:Envelope>
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50
Content-Id:<[email protected]>
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
"first_name","last_name","preferred_name"
"david", "looi", "dave"
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50--
But you only care about that CSV data near the bottom. How on earth are you supposed to process this?
Like this!
input = %(
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50
Content-Type: text/xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><S:Body /></S:Envelope>
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50
Content-Id:<[email protected]>
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
"first_name","last_name","preferred_name"
"david", "looi", "dave"
--uuid:0909325b-5e74-44eb-9a5e-4c7067f14c50--
