ChartMogul
This gem is designed to streamline interaction with the ChartMogul API. The initial focus has been on support for the Import API.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'chart_mogul'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install chart_mogul
Usage
Credentials are provided in the Account / API area of the ChartMogul application and comprise an account_token
and secret_key
.
This can be passed in when insantiating a ChartMogul::Client
instance, eg:
client = ChartMogul::Client.new(account_token: 'token value', secret_key: 'secret value')
If not passed to the constructor the values returned by the CHART_MOGUL_ACCOUNT_TOKEN
and CHART_MOGUL_SECRET_KEY
environment variables are used.
Methods for access the API are exposed on the client
.
Reading data
Reading methods, list_
prefix, are either presented as simple methods that page through all responses from the API and present a fully populated Array of typed objects.
client.list_customers # => [ Import::Customer, Import::Customer ]
and as an iterative version, with an _each
suffix, that expects a block. Useful for those situations where you're dealing with a lot of records and don't want them necessarily all in memory. This again handles the paging transparently.
The block is yielded to with a typed object.
client.list_customers_each do |customer|
# do something with the Import::Customer here
end
Importing data
Data records are imported by passing a Hash of attributes to a create_
prefixed method.
client.create_plan({
data_source_uuid: "ds_2323232",
name: "Top Plan",
interval_count: 1,
interval_unit: :month
})
Dates and times are expected as Time
objects. The gem handles the formatting required by the ChartMogul API.
Where possible pre request validation is also handled by the gem. ArgumentErrors
with a description of the variable are raised in the event that pre submit validation fails.
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
