Warning!
DigitalOcean is changing their API without notification of customers, including the author of this gem. In the past this has lead into several issues with users having problems or see unexpected behaviour. As the author of this gem I don't make any money and DigitalOcean is not paying me, either. My spare time is limited and I hate to debug other company's problems or sneak into forums to find information / hidden API resources.
If you run into any problem, please contact Digital Ocean first.

res = dc.regions.list
res.regions.size # => 2
res.regions.first.name # => "New York 1"
# 3. get all available machine types (sizes)
#
res = dc.sizes.list
res.sizes
# => [#<Hashie::Rash id=66 name="512MB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=63 name="1GB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=62 name="2GB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=64 name="4GB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=65 name="8GB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=61 name="16GB">,

# #<Hashie::Rash id=69 name="64GB">,
# #<Hashie::Rash id=68 name="96GB">]
# 4. get all available images (e.g. OS-Images, snapshots, backups)
#
res = dc.images.list
res.images
# => [#<Hashie::Rash distribution="CentOS" id=1601 name="CentOS 5.8 x64">,
# #<Hashie::Rash distribution="CentOS" id=1602 name="CentOS 5.8 x32">,
# ...
# #<Hashie::Rash distribution="Ubuntu" id=2676 name="Ubuntu 12.04 x64 Server">,
# ...
# #<Hashie::Rash distribution="Ubuntu" id=25306 name="Ubuntu 12.10 x32 Server">,
# ...]
# 5. start a new instance (called droplet)
#
res = dc.droplets.create :name => 'new_hostname',
:size_id => 64,
:image_id => 2676,
:region_id => 1
# 6. query droplet status (e.g. to get the IP of a droplet)
#
res = dc.droplets.list
res.droplets
# => [#<Hashie::Rash backups_active=false id=123456
# image_id=25306 ip_address="123.123.123.123"
