Creating real orders including transaction via the API by Christian Lobach

Hi,

I wonder if there is any way to create an order using the API (for an iOS app). The Order API documentation says

You should note that orders can be created through the API, but no payment information will be collected, and no transaction performed.

So I wonder if it would be possible to manually create a transaction afterwards?

If this is not possible: Is it possible to create real orders using the shopify_api ruby gem?

Or is there a completely different way that I haven't thought about? Maybe creating the order using the API and then showing a web view with the payment website would work?

Thanks a lot,

Christian
