Tinder is a library for interfacing with Campfire, the chat application from 37Signals, allowing you to programmatically manage and speak/listen in chat rooms. As of December 2009, thanks to initial work from Joshua Peek at 37signals, it now makes use of the official Campfire API (described at: http://developer.37signals.com/campfire/).

campfire = Tinder::Campfire.new 'mysubdomain', :token => '546884b3d8fee4d80665g561caf7h9f3ea7b999e'
# or you can still use username/password and Tinder will look up your token
# campfire = Tinder::Campfire.new 'mysubdomain', :username => 'user', :password => 'pass'

room = campfire.rooms.first
room.rename 'New Room Names'
room.speak 'Hello world!'
room.paste "my pasted\ncode"

room = campfire.find_room_by_guest_hash 'abc123', 'John Doe'
room.speak 'Hello world!'

See the RDoc for more details.
