Usage
Currently supports OAuth2 Auth Code Strategy (Explicit Grant Flow) only. For more info see https://developer.yahoo.com/oauth2/guide/flows_authcode/
Getting a refresh token
Your app can start using this gem if you have a refresh token. A refresh token can be manually generated through the console.
client = YahooGeminiClient::Client.new(
consumer_key: "consumer_key",
consumer_secret: "consumer_secret",
)
# open a browser and go to the authorization url given to get the authorization code
authorization_url = client.authorization_url
# you can now generate the refresh token once you have the authorization code
refresh_token = client.get_token("the_authorization_code").refresh_token
# with the refresh token you can now instantiate and use a YahooGeminiClient::Client anytime
client = YahooGeminiClient::Client.new(
consumer_key: "consumer_key",
consumer_secret: "consumer_secret",
refresh_token: refresh_token,
)
Advertisers

response = client.advertisers.find(123)
response.error? # check if response is error
response.advertiser # returns a YahooGeminiClient::Advertiser
response = client.advertisers.all
response.error? # check if response is error
response.advertisers # returns an array containing YahooGeminiClient::Advertiser
