Storyblok Ruby Client
This is the official Storyblok ruby client for easy access of the management and content delivery api.
🚀 Usage
Install
gem 'storyblok'Usage for the content delivery api
By default the client loads the "draft" version of the Story. Be sure to set the version to "published" to get the published content only.
# The draft mode is required for the preview
Storyblok::Client.new(version: 'draft')
# Requests only published stories
Storyblok::Client.new(version: 'published')Using the APIs on other regions
You should use the space access token with the api_region parameter whenever your space belongs to other server locations.
Available regions: eu, us, ca and ap.
Example on US region:
client = Storyblok::Client.new(token: 'YOUR_TOKEN', api_region: 'us')Load a story
# Without cache
client = Storyblok::Client.new(token: 'YOUR_TOKEN')
# Optionally set a cache client
redis = Redis.new(url: 'redis://localhost:6379')
cache = Storyblok::Cache::Redis.new(redis: redis)
client = Storyblok::Client.new(cache: cache, token: 'YOUR_TOKEN')
# Get a story
client.story('home')Load a list of stories
# Get all Stories that start with news
client.stories({
:starts_with => 'news'
})Load a list of datasource entries
# Get all label datasource entries
client.datasource_entries({
:datasource => 'labels'
})Load a list of tags
# Get all Tags that within the folder news
client.tags({
:starts_with => 'news'
})Load a list of links
client.linksGenerate a navigation tree
tree = client.tree
puts '<ul>'
tree.each do |key, item|
puts '<li>' + item['item']['name']
if !item['children'].empty?
puts '<ul>'
item['children'].each do |key, inner_item|
puts '<li>' + inner_item['item']['name'] + '</li>'
end
puts '</ul>'
end
puts '</li>'
end
puts '</ul>'Get the space info
client.spaceHow to flush the cache
Following an example of how to flush the client cache:
cache = Storyblok::Cache::Redis.new(redis: Redis.current)
client = Storyblok::Client.new(cache: cache, token: 'YOUR_TOKEN')
# Get a story and cache it
client.story('home')
# Flush the cache
client.flushUsage for the management api
Initialize the client and load spaces
client = Storyblok::Client.new(oauth_token: 'YOUR_OAUTH_TOKEN')
# Get your spaces
client.get('spaces/')Create a story
client.post("spaces/{space_id}/stories", {story: {name: 'new', slug: "new"}})Update a story
client.put("spaces/{space_id}/stories/{story_id}", {story: {name: 'new', slug: "new"}})Delete a story
client.delete("spaces/{space_id}/stories/{story_id}")Rendering of richtext fields
This SDK comes with a rendering service for richtext fields of Storyblok to get html output.
Rendering a richtext field
client.render(data.richtext_field)Define a component renderer
Storyblok's richtext field also let's you insert content blocks. To render these blocks you can define a Lambda.
# Option 1: Define the resolver when initializing
client = Storyblok::Client.new(
component_resolver: ->(component, data) {
case component
when 'button'
"<button>#{data['text']}</button>"
when 'your_custom_component'
"<div class='welcome'>#{data['welcome_text']}</div>"
end
}
)
# Option 2: Define the resolver afterwards
client.set_component_resolver(->(component, data) {
"#{component}"
})Contribute

Running Tests
We use RSpec for testing.
To run the whole test suite you will need export the environment variables, ATTENTION when running the test suit with the variable REDIS_URL exported, the test suite will remove the keys with this pattern storyblok:* from the redis database defined by REDIS_URL
export REDIS_URL="redis://localhost:6379"Optionally you can generate the test report coverage by setting the environment variable
export COVERAGE=trueTo run the whole test suite use the following command:
rspecTo run tests without redis cache tests (for when you don't have redis, or to avoid the test suite to remove the keys with this pattern storyblok:* ):
rspec --tag ~redis_cache:trueđź”— Related Links
