Flex::Commerce::Api

Allows any ruby application to use the FlexCommerce platform using its API

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'flex-commerce-api'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install flex-commerce-api

The gem provides many models in the FlexCommerce namespace. The example below is a rails controller accessing a list of products.

class ProductsController < ApplicationController

  # GET /products
  def index
    @products = FlexCommerce::Product.paginate(params[:page])
  end
end

To any rails developer this will look familiar.

However, we do not force you to use rails. We appreciate that there are many frameworks out there and whilst rails is an excellent tool, for smaller projects you may want to look at others such as Sinatra etc...

Add the request store gem to your Gemfile and install

gem "request-store"

bundle install

# application_controller.rb
class ApplicationController
  before_action :set_request_ip

  private

  def set_request_ip
    RequestStore[:request_ip] = request.remote_ip
  end
end

Configure the API client to pick up set value

FlexCommerceApi.config do |config|
  config.forwarded_for = ->{ RequestStore[:request_ip] }
end

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
