ruby_ufc
⚠️ 🚧 Under heavy development ⚠️ 🚧
A simple Ruby wrapper to communicate with the UFC API.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'ruby_ufc'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install ruby_ufc
Usage
Description and examples of the supported actions are below. Every action returns an Array of Hashes or an empty Array.
# Instantantiate
client = RubyUfc::Client.new
client.fighters # Returns an Array of Hashes with all the fighters
client.fighters(first_name: 'Conor') # Returns each fighter whose first name is Conor
client.fighters(first_name: 'SomeWeirdName') # Returns an empty Array
client.fighters(unknown_key: 'A value') # Returns an empty Array
Every supported action has the same behaviour as the action above. Currently supported actions are:
- fighters
- octagon_girls
- events
- news
- media
Since UFC API has no documentation, each of the actions above comes with a helper action that returns an Array of Symbols with the attributes for that particular resource. You can use them as follows.
client.news_attributes #=> [:article_date, :article_fighter_id, :article_media_id, :author, :created, :external_url, :external_url_text, :featured_news_category, :id, :introduction, :keyword_ids, :last_modified, :published_start_date, :thumbnail, :title, :url_name]
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake test
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.
