You must first have a Blitline.com account to successfully use the gem. You can obtain one (free) by going to http://www.blitline.com

Once you have your account, you will need to find you ACCOUNT_ID which you can get by logging in and clicking on the *Account* tab.


In you application environment, install the Blitline gem or add the Blitline gem to your Gemfile

    $ gem install blitline

or...if you have a Gemfile

    gem 'blitline'

Once the gem is installed, you can start a Rails console and try the following:

    $ blitline_service = Blitline.new
    $ job = Blitline::Job.new("http://www.google.com/logos/2011/yokoyama11-hp.jpg") #My source file to manipulate
    $ job.application_id = "ACCOUNT_ID" # This ACCOUNT_ID needs to be your account ID from Blitline which you got from Blitline.com above
    $ job.add_function("blur", {radius:1}, "my_first_image") # Add a blur function, with no params, and give a unique name to the result
    $ blitline_service.jobs << job # Push job into service
    $ blitline_service.post_jobs

And you will get JSON back describing where the resulting image will be located
There are many more things you can do with images (including pushing them to your own S3 buckets).

== Contributing to blitline

* Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
* Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
* Fork the project
* Start a feature/bugfix branch
* Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
* Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
* Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
