I have published Ethereum on Rails on Github. It is a demo/template application that allows authenticating Users in your Rails application with an Ethereum wallet (e.g., MetaMask).

Screenshot of the Demo

You can use this repository as a template to create your custom Rails application that already has Ethereum support bundled. It uses ruby-eth gem for Ethereum account management.

If you want to use any Ethereum node with ruby you can use ethereum.rb.

Keep in mind that testrpc is a test node, so it only makes sense to use it when writing tests.
