ForemLite

A simple tool to help you get articles from Forem/Dev.to.

The patterns laid out in this gem could easily be used to finish building out the rest of the API, but I only needed articles so I am leaving the rest up to contributors or for when I eventually need to use it as well.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "forem_lite"

And then execute:

bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

gem install forem_lite

require "forem_lite"

c = ForemLite::Client.new

# https://docs.dev.to/api/#operation/getArticles
articles = c.articles
articles.first.title # => "How do you keep notes?"

# https://docs.dev.to/api/#operation/getArticleById
article = c.article(279134)
article.title # => "A11Y in Rails: Automated Linting with AccessLint🎉"
article.url # => "https://dev.to/andrewmcodes/a11y-in-rails-automated-linting-with-accesslint-1618"

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.
