airtable

Rust wrapper for the Airtable API. The official API's documentation can be found here. This is also where you can find your API tokens. This is inspired by Airrecord for Ruby.

The wrapper is not complete, but has the basics and is easy to extend.

Installation

Add airtable = "*" to your Cargo.toml.

Example

extern crate dotenv;
extern crate serde;

use dotenv::dotenv;
use std::env;
use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};

// You don't need to use dotenv. I use it here because it makes it much easier to test without
// publishing my keys to the kingdom :-)
dotenv().ok();

// Define the schema in Airtable. You don't need to type out the full row schema.
// You can use the serde annotation of `default` if it's optional and rename columns,
// as I've done here to map from upper-case. You must define a string id identifier.
//
// In this case, I'm mapping words that I have highlighted on my kindle with the # of results
// on Google so I can choose which ones to learn first.
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Default)]
struct Word {
    #[serde(default, skip_serializing)]
    id: String,
    #[serde(rename = "Word")]
    word: String,
    #[serde(rename = "Google")]
    google: i64,
    #[serde(rename = "Next", default)]
    next: bool,
}

// We need to define two methods on the structure so that ids can be assigned to it.
//
// TODO: Convert this to be a `derive(Airtable)` and be automatically defined but panic if the
// `id` is not a member of the struct and is a String. Contributions welcome for this or
// another ergonomic solution.
impl airtable::Record for Word {
    fn set_id(&mut self, id: String) {
        self.id = id;
    }

    fn id(&self) -> &str {
        &self.id
    }
}

// Define the base object to operate on.
let base = airtable::new::<Word>(
    &env::var("AIRTABLE_KEY").unwrap(),
    &env::var("AIRTABLE_BASE_WORDS_KEY").unwrap(),
    "Words",
);

// Query on the base. This implements the Iterator Trait and will paginate when reaching a page
// boundary. If you remove the `take(200)`, it'll just paginate through everything.
let mut results: Vec<_> = base
    .query()
    .view("To Learn")
    .sort("Next", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)
    .sort("Google", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)
    .sort("Created", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)
    .formula("FIND(\"Harry Potter\", Source)")
    .into_iter()
    .take(200)
    .collect();

// Pop the first element by taking ownership of it and print it
let mut word = results.remove(0);
println!("{:?}", word);

// Toggle the flag and update the record.
word.next = !word.next;
base.update(&word);

// Create a new word!
let mut new_word = Word {
    word: "lurid".to_string(),
    google: 6870000,
    next: true,
    // Set id to nil and other attributes we may not care about or not know yet.
    .. Default::default()
};

println!("{:?}", base.create(&new_word));
