Onfleet
Onfleet is an API wrapper for Onfleet's APIs.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'onfleet'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install onfleet
Usage
You can create an instance of the API wrapper:
onfleet = Onfleet::API.new("your_api_key")
You can set api_key
, timeout
, throws_exceptions
, retry_if_fails
and logger
globally:
Onfleet::API.api_key = "your_api_key"
Onfleet::API.timeout = 15
Onfleet::API.throws_exceptions = false
Onfleet::API.retry_if_fails = true
Onfleet::API.logger = Logger.new("#{Rails.root}/log/onfleet.log")
For example, you could set the values above in an initializer
file in your Rails
app (e.g. your_app/config/initializers/onfleet.rb).
Assuming you've set an api_key
on Onfleet, you can conveniently make API calls on the class itself:
Onfleet::API.tasks.all
You can also set the environment variable ONFLEET_API_KEY
and Onfleet will use it when you create an instance:
onfleet = Onfleet::API.new
Fetching Tasks
For example, to fetch all the tasks of your organisation:
tasks = onfleet.tasks.all
Fetching Destinations
Similarly, to fetch your destinations:
lists = onfleet.destinations.all
Or, to fetch a task by id:
task = onfleet.tasks.find('task_id')
Or, to delete a task by id:
task = onfleet.tasks.delete('task_id')
Or, to update a task by id:
task = onfleet.tasks.delete(id: 'task_id', other_updating_params: value)
passing id to update any resource is necessory
The above examples were for only task resource. Same way it can be used for other resources i.e. organization, admins, workers, teams, destinations, recipients, tasks, webhooks.
Setting timeouts
Onfleet defaults to a 30 second timeout. You can optionally set your own timeout (in seconds) like so:
onfleet = Onfleet::API.new("your_api_key", {:timeout => 5})
or
onfleet.timeout = 5
Error handling
By default Onfleet will attempt to raise errors returned by the API automatically.
If you set the throws_exceptions
boolean attribute to false, for a given instance,
then Onfleet will not raise exceptions. This allows you to handle errors manually. The
APIs will return a Hash with two keys "message", a hash containing two keys 'message' and 'error'.
'message' contains textual information about the error, 'error' the numeric code of the error,
and "code", the name code of the error.
If you rescue Onfleet::OnfleetError, you are provided with the error message itself as well as
a code
attribute that you can map onto the API's error list. The API docs list possible errors
at the bottom of each page. Here's how you might do that:
begin
onfleet.tasks.all
rescue Onfleet::OnfleetError => e
# do something with e.message here
# do something wiht e.code here
end
