Bronto

This is a handy library that wraps the Bronto SOAP API.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'bronto'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install bronto

Usage

Let's setup some contacts, add them to a list, and then send them a message.

  1. Require the library and specify the API Key on the Base class:

    require 'bronto'
    Bronto::Base.api_key = "..."
    
  2. Create two contacts:

    contact_1 = Bronto::Contact.new(email: "test_1@example.com")
    contact_2 = Bronto::Contact.new(email: "test_2@example.com")
    
    puts contact_1.id
    # => nil
    
    puts contact_2.id
    # => nil
    
    # You can save multiple objects with one API call using the class `save` method.
    Bronto::Contact.save(contact_1, contact_2)
    
    # Both contacts should now have ids.
    puts contact_1.id
    # => "32da24c..."
    
    puts contact_2.id
    # => "98cd453..."
    
  3. Create a list and the contacts:

    list = Bronto::List.new(name: "A Test List", label: "This is a test list.")
    list.save
    
    list.add_to_list(contact_1, contact_2)
    
  4. Create a new message and add content:

    message = Bronto::Message.new(name: "Test Message")
    message.add_content("html", "HTML Subject", "HTML Content")
    message.add_content("text", "Text Subject", "Text Content")
    message.save
    
  5. Create a new delivery with a message and recipients and send it ASAP:

    delivery = Bronto::Delivery.new(start: Time.now, type: "normal", from_name: "Test", from_email: "test@example.com")
    delivery.message_id = message.id
    delivery.add_recipient(list)
    delivery.save
