Emailhunter

A tiny ruby wrapper around Hunter (former Email Hunter) API. Direct access to all the web's email addresses.

UPDATE (2016-12-02): gem updated with V2 API.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'emailhunter'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install emailhunter

require 'emailhunter'
email_hunter = EmailHunter.new('Your secret API key')

Your secret API key. You can generate it in your dashboard from https://hunter.io

Returns all the email addresses found using one given domain name, with our sources.

result = email_hunter.search('stripe.com')

result.fetch(:meta)
result.fetch(:webmail)
result.fetch(:emails)
result.fetch(:pattern)
result.fetch(:domain)

Allows you to verify the deliverability of an email address.

email_hunter.verify('bonjour@firmapi.com')

result.fetch(:result)
result.fetch(:score)
result.fetch(:regexp)
result.fetch(:gibberish)
result.fetch(:disposable)
result.fetch(:mx_records)
result.fetch(:smtp_server)
result.fetch(:smtp_check)
result.fetch(:accept_all)
result.fetch(:sources)
result.fetch(:meta)

This API call is deprecated, please use the email verification call instead.

This API endpoint allows you to check if a given email address has been found on the web. If it has been found, it returns all the sources with the dates of the last crawls.

email_hunter.exist('bonjour@firmapi.com')

result.status
result.email
result.exist
result.sources

Guesses the most likely email of a person from his first name, his last name and a domain name.

result.fetch(:email)
result.fetch(:score)
result.fetch(:sources)
result.fetch(:domain)
result.fetch(:meta)

Returns the number of email addresses found for a domain. This is a FREE API call.
