Srfax
This is the 'unofficial' SRFax (http://www.srfax.com) API wrapper for ruby. The API documentation for SRFax can be found at https://www.srfax.com/srf/media/SRFax-REST-API-Documentation.pdf
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'srfax'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself using:
$ gem install srfax
Usage
To get started, simply open the console view and require the SrFax module. Once you have completed that, enter your account credentials using the SrFax setup block, and then begin to execute calls. All status' returned are simply formatted hashes from the SrFax service.
require 'srfax'
SrFax.setup do |config|
config.defaults[:access_id] = '1234'
config.defaults[:access_pwd] = 'password'
config.logger = Rails.logger
end
SrFax.view_inbox
SrFax.view_outbox
SrFax.update_fax_status(descriptor, direction)
SrFax.get_fax(descriptor, direction, {:sMarkasViewed => 'Y'}
As an example, here is a sample queue fax call to send a fax
SrFax.queue_fax "yourname@yourdomain.com", "SINGLE", "18888888888", {sFileName_1: "file1.txt", sFileContent_1: Base64.encode64("Sample Fax")}
The SrFax module currently supports the following functions
- Sending and receiving faxes
- Updating flags on the inbox or outbox faxes
- Deleting faxes from either the inbox or outbox
- View account usage
- Download faxes from the inbox or outbox
