Automating the process of creating a steam lobby (for dota) and inviting users to it.

[Reaper]

I'm working on a Ruby on Rails web-application and I want to create lobbies and send invitations to users to join these lobbies. Simply, I want achieve `ISteamMatchmaking Interface` functionality of `Steam SDK` but the problem is that sdk in written in C/C++ and I would have to write wrapper to integrate sdk in my application.

My question is that is there some easy and less time consuming approach to achieve `ISteamMatchmaking Interface` functionality in web-application?

I'm using RoR but I'm open to use other technologies too.

but i don't really think it is possible to control lobby functionality in a game without the game. f.e. the way esea does it with csgo is an own method and they just connect the players to a server and the server gets the info from the own method how to team them.

ISteamMatchmaking is also a Steamworks function, so it should not work without the game.

This is not possible AFAIK. Try asking in the Steamworks Discussions if you have access.
