rentlinx_client
rentlinx_client is a ruby wrapper for the RentLinx API.
Installation
To install from the command line, run:
gem install rentlinx
To include in a rails app, include this line in your gemfile:
gem 'rentlinx'
Usage
Configure like so:
Rentlinx.configure do |rentlinx|
rentlinx.username ENV['RENTLINX_USERNAME']
rentlinx.password ENV['RENTLINX_PASSWORD']
rentlinx.site_url 'https://rentlinx.com/api/v2'
rentlinx.log_level :error
end
For all endpoints, attributes are defined by the API: https://www.rentlinx.com/mongoose/help
Properties:
prop = Property.new(attributes)
prop.post # creates
prop.website = 'http://example.com'
prop.post # updates
prop = Property.from_id('property-id') # fetches
Objects can be created for all endpoints supported by the Rentlinx API, including Units, Amenities, Photos, and Links. For more detailed information, see the full documentation on rubygems.
Contributing and development
Pull requests are welcome for this gem. New features require writing new tests. A pull request be considered for merging once:
- New features are tested
- All tests pass on Travis CI
- The code coverage reported by Coveralls does not decrease without reason
Testing: Code style
Travis CI runs two test suites. The first suite performs a style check with the tool rubocop. To run rubocop locally first make sure you have the necessary tools:
bundle install
Then, run rubocop across the project's files:
rubocop
Not all rubocop's rules are set in stone, so once you are receiving only warnings testing rules that may not make sense, please comment on your pull request indicating you think the rules should be adjusted with your reasoning.
Documentation
All new classes, modules, and public methods should be documented in the style of yard. Modified classes and methods should have their documentation updated accordingly. Tests do not need documentation.
Testing: Unit tests
The second suite is running minitest. The simplest way to invoke our minitest suite is via:
rake
The default rake task actually maps to rake test
. Additionally individual
test files can be executed via:
ruby -Ilib:test test/FILENAME.rb
