Cognito Client

Unofficial Ruby client for the BlockScore Cognito API. This library was designed using a command-query separation principle.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cognito-client'

And then execute:

$ bundle

In your code or in IRB you can include the library with:

require 'cognito/client'

Usage

Creating a client

client = Cognito::Client.create(
  api_key:     'your-api-key',
  api_secret:  'your-api-secret',
  uri:         'https://sandbox.cognitohq.com',
  api_version: '2016-09-01'
)

Creating a profile

profile = client.create_profile

Create an identity search with phone and name

search = client.create_identity_search(
  profile_id:   profile.data.id,
  phone_number: '+14151231234',
  name: { # optional
    first: 'Leslie',
    last:  'Knope'
  }
)

Creating an identity assessment for the search

assessment = search.create_assessment(
  phone_number: '+14151231234',
  name: {
    first: 'Leslie',
    last:  'Doe'
  }
)

Traversing the data

The client automatically links the resource relationships allowing you to make calls like:

search.data.identity_records.first.names.map(&:attributes)

# [
#   { :first=>"LESLIE", :middle=>"BARBARA", :last=>"KNOPE" },
#   {:first=>"LESLIE", :middle=>nil, :last=>"KNOPE-WYATT" }
# ]

Running the test suite

bundle exec rspec
