# Russian Post API Client

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/artemshitov/russianpost.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/artemshitov/russianpost) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/artemshitov/russianpost.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/artemshitov/russianpost)

Ruby client for Russian Post package tracking SOAP API. Works on a per-package basis (contrary to the bulk ticket-based API). The client tries to be smart and fills gaps in the information provided by Russian Post using external knowledge.

Use it at your own risk, since the API may appear unstable and require authorization in future.

## Installation

To install gem stand-alone:

    gem install russianpost

To use gem in a Rails app, add the following to your `Gemfile`:

    gem "russianpost", "~> 0.5.0"

This gem uses [Savon](http://savonrb.com/), which in turn uses [HTTPI](https://github.com/savonrb/httpi) internally. HTTPI chooses the best HTTP library of those you have installed. For the fastest results, make sure you add [Curb](https://github.com/taf2/curb) to your `Gemfile`:

    gem "curb"
    gem "russianpost"

If you use RussianPost outside Rails, `require "curb"` before requiring RussianPost.

## Usage

Initialize a parcel object, passing the package barcode to the constructor:

    parcel = RussianPost::Parcel.new("EC123456789RU")

Fetch operation history for the parcel:

    parcel.operations

The `operations` method returns an `Array` of `Operation` structs.

### Parcel info

RussianPost makes guesses about current state of the parcel.

    # Current parcel location
    parcel.location

    # Mass
    parcel.mass

    # Rank
    parcel.rank

    # Recipient
    parcel.recipient

    # Type
    parcel.type

### Operations API

Each `Operation` responds to the following methods. If there is no information, methods return `nil`. See the [wiki](https://github.com/artemshitov/russianpost/wiki) for a list of what else can be returned.
