Savon version 2 is available through Rubygems and can be installed via:

$ gem install savon

or add it to your Gemfile like this:

gem 'savon', '~> 2.13.0'

require 'savon'

# create a client for the service
client = Savon.client(wsdl: 'http://service.example.com?wsdl')

# or: create a client with a wsdl provided as a string
client = Savon.client do |config|
  wsdl_content = File.read("/path/to/wsdl")
  config.wsdl wsdl_content
end

client.operations
# => [:find_user, :list_users]

# call the 'findUser' operation
response = client.call(:find_user, message: { id: 42 })

response.body
# => { find_user_response: { id: 42, name: 'Hoff' } }
