Submit POST data from controller to another website in Rails

by

The simpliest way is using ruby core library:

require "uri"
require "net/http"

params = {'box1' => 'Nothing is less important than which fork you use. Etiquette is the science of living. It embraces everything. It is ethics. It is honor. -Emily Post',
'button1' => 'Submit'
}
x = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('http://www.interlacken.com/webdbdev/ch05/formpost.asp'), params)
puts x.body

Pro Tip: Do an asynchronous request, using a gem like delayed_job or background_rb
