The class Jini helps you build an XPATH.

ruby require 'jini' xpath = Jini.new .add_node('parent') # addition a path node .add_node('child') # addition a path node .add_attr('key', 'value') # addition an attribute .remove_node('child') # removes node .to_s # convert it to a string puts(xpath) # -> xpath: /parent[@key="value"]

The full list of methods is here.

Install it:

bash $ gem install jini

Or add this to your Gemfile:

bash gem 'jini'

Pay attention, it is not a parser. The only functionality this gem provides is building XPATHs.
