Is it possible SketchUp 3D model can be connected to database MYSQL with Ruby?

From an old topic on SQL database under Ruby …

@DanRathbun

I was asked on SCF how to do this in pure Ruby. My recommendation:

(1) I believe, You or whomever runs the Server still need to install MySQL:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/

From SketchUp Ruby Console (or a script running in SketchUp’s embedded Ruby):

(2) Gem::install "ruby-mysql"
( Pure-Ruby edition - replaces the C edition named “mysql” gem, that needs compiling.)
source: https://github.com/tmtm/ruby-mysql
gem: https://rubygems.org/gems/ruby-mysql
doc: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/mysql/

(3) Gem::install "dbi"
gem: https://rubygems.org/gems/dbi
doc: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/dbi

(4) Gem::install "ruby-odbc"
gem: https://rubygems.org/gems/ruby-odbc
doc: http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/ruby-odbc

Also… have sent corrected URLs to the website hosting the DBI tutorial:
