Ruby OpenID makes it easy to add OpenID authentication to your web
applications.
This library is a port of the Python OpenID library, and features:
* API for verifying OpenID identities (OpenID::Consumer)
* API for serving OpenID identities (OpenID::Server)
* Consumer and server support for extensions, including simple registration
* Yadis 1.0 and OpenID 1.0 service discovery, including server fallback
* Does not depend on underlying web framework
* Multiple storage implementations (Filesystem, SQL)
* Comprehensive test suite
* Example code to help you get started, including:
o WEBrick based consumer
o Ruby on rails based server
o OpenIDLoginGenerator for quickly creating a rails app that uses OpenID
for authentication
o ActiveRecord adapter for using an SQL store in rails

An OpenID identity is just a URL. You can have multiple identities in
the same way you can have multiple URLs. All OpenID does is provide a
way to prove that you own a URL (identity).
Anybody can run their own site using OpenID, and anybody can be an
OpenID server, and they all work with each other without having to
register with or pay anybody to "get started". An owner of a URL can
pick which OpenID server to use.

specification as well as making API changes that should make
integration with applications easier.
This library allows the use of XRI as OpenID identifiers, allowing users
to log in with their i-names. For full XRI compatibility,
relying parties integrating this library should take note of the user's
CanonicalID, as described in the "Identifying the End User" section of
the OpenID 2.0 specification.
