A rubygem for interacting with the public Datagrepper API.

datagrepper-gem provides a very simple syntax. In fact, currently, the entire public-facing gem is just one method, query, which takes a hash.

dg = Datagrepper.new
dg.query :delta => 1.hour, :user => ['codeblock', 'toshio', 'ralph']
dg.query :delta => 3.weeks, :package => ['python-requests', 'httpie']

As you can see, when you want to query with multiple parameters (for ORing filters), just pass an Array.

We use the awesome time-lord gem to provide a nice time-period-based syntax for delta (e.g. 2.hours or 1.year).

You can use something like the promise gem to execute searches and get a future back, because searches can take some time, and you might not want to block.
