A Harvest Java Client

harvest-client is a Java client for the Harvest REST API (https://help.getharvest.com/api-v2/)

Introduction

With harvest-client you can use the Harvest v2 API with a nice Java interface:

// Load configuration from application.conf in src/main/resources of your application
Harvest harvest = new Harvest();
// list all users
List<User> users = harvest.users().list();

for (User user : users) {
    log.debug("Found user: {}", user);
}
// create new user
User userInfo = ImmutableUser.builder()
                .firstName("first")
                .lastName("last")
                .email("test@example.com")
                .build();

User newUser = harvest.users().create(userInfo);

Have a look in the test folders for examples. Each API endpoint has a Create, List and Update test class.

Getting started with Development

Prerequisites

Java 8 (or higher)
Gradle

Run the build end tests

Clone or fork this repository
Get a personal access token from Harvest
- Attention: unit tests assume admin access. Don't run them against a production account!
Configuring your Harvest account id and authentication token:
- You will need 2 Harvest accounts with admin access (it's a limitation of the current Harvest API)
- Either copy reference.conf to src/test/resources/admin{1,2}.conf and insert your credentials
- Or set the following environment properties:
```
    $ export HARVEST_ACCOUNT_ID_ADMIN1=YOUR_ACCT_ID_1
    $ export HARVEST_AUTH_TOKEN_ADMIN1=YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN_1
    $ export HARVEST_ACCOUNT_ID_ADMIN2=YOUR_ACCT_ID_2
    $ export HARVEST_AUTH_TOKEN_ADMIN2=YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN_2
```
Run gradle build in the root directory of the repository

Debugging

You can see the actual HTTP request and response by setting the log level for ch.aaap.harvestclient.core.Harvest.http to TRACE

Log4j2

<Logger name="ch.aaap.harvestclient.core.Harvest.http" level="trace" additivity="false">
    <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
