Constant Contact Ruby SDK for AppConnect ==== The Ruby SDK for AppConnect allows you to leverage the AppConnect v2 APIs. [](https://travis-ci.org/constantcontact/ruby-sdk) Requirements ==== The Constant Contact Ruby SDK requires Ruby 2.2+. Installation ==== Via bundler: ```ruby gem 'constantcontact', '~> 4.0.0' ``` Otherwise: ```bash [sudo|rvm] gem install constantcontact ``` Configuration ==== The AppConnect SDK can be configured with some options globally or they can be specified when creating the API client: ```ruby ConstantContact::Util::Config.configure do |config| config[:auth][:api_key] = 'your-access-key' config[:auth][:api_secret] = 'your-access-secret' config[:auth][:redirect_uri] = 'https://example.com/auth/constantcontact' end ``` Documentation ===== SDK Documentation is hosted at http://constantcontact.github.io/ruby-sdk API Documentation is located at http://developer.constantcontact.com/docs/developer-guides/api-documentation-index.html Getting Started ==== AppConnect requires an OAuth access token which will give your app access to Constant Contact data and services for the accout that granted that access token. Rails ===== Create a new controller action. The redirect_url should be the same as the one given when registering the app with Mashery. Use the following code snippet to get an access token: ```ruby @oauth = ConstantContact::Auth::OAuth2.new( :api_key => 'your api key', :api_secret => 'your secret key', :redirect_url => 'your redirect url' # the URL given when registering your app with Mashery. ) @error = params[:error] @user = params[:username] @code = params[:code] if @code.present? response = @oauth.get_access_token(@code) if response.present? token = response['access_token'] cc = ConstantContact::Api.new('your api key', token) @contacts = cc.get_contacts() end else # if not code param is provided redirect into the OAuth flow redirect_to @oauth.get_authorization_url and return end ``` Create a view for the above mentioned action with the following code: ```erb <% if @error %> <p><%= @error %></p> <% end %> <% if @contacts.present? %> <% @contacts.results.each do |contact| %> <p>Contact name: <%= "#{contact.first_name} #{contact.last_name}" %></p> <% end %> <% end %> ``` The first time you access the action you will be redirected into the Constant Contact OAuth flow. Then you will be redirected back to your action and you should see the list of contacts. Sinatra ===== Require AppConnect: ```ruby require 'constantcontact' ``` Add the following route. The redirect_url should be the same given when registering the app with Mashery. ```ruby get '/my_url' do @oauth = ConstantContact::Auth::OAuth2.new( :api_key => 'your api key', :api_secret => 'your secret key', :redirect_url => 'your redirect url' ) @error = params[:error] @user = params[:username] @code = params[:code] if @code response = @oauth.get_access_token(@code) if response token = response['access_token'] cc = ConstantContact::Api.new('your api key', token) @contacts = cc.get_contacts() end end erb :my_view end ``` Create a my_view.erb with the following code: ```ruby <% if @error %> <p><%=@error%></p> <% end %> <% if @code %> <% if @contacts %> <% @contacts.results.each do |contact| %> <p>\Contact name: <%= "#{contact.first_name} #{contact.last_name}" %></p> <% end %> <% end %> <% else %> <a href="<%=@oauth.get_authorization_url%>">Click to authorize</a> <% end %> ``` The first time you access the action in browser you should see the "Click to authorize" link. Follow the link, go through all the Constant Contact steps required and then you will be redirected back to your action and you should see the list of contacts. Example ===== Add a new contact using the Ruby SDK ``` #gem install constantcontact require 'yaml' require 'constantcontact' class ContactExample def initialize() cnf = YAML::load(File.open('config/config.yml')) @cc = ConstantContact::Api.new(cnf['api_key'], cnf['oauth_token']) end def add_contact( contact_json ) @cc.add_contact( contact_json ) end def get_lists @cc.get_lists() end end class AddContactTest def do() contact_example = ContactExample.new contact_list = contact_example.get_lists[0].id puts "Add what email address?" email_address = gets.chomp puts "Adding #{email_address} to Contact List #{contact_list}" list_to_add_to = ConstantContact::Components::ContactList.new list_to_add_to.id = contact_list new_contact = ConstantContact::Components::Contact.new new_contact.add_email(ConstantContact::Components::EmailAddress.new(email_address)) new_contact.add_list(list_to_add_to) new_contact.first_name = 'Example' new_contact.last_name = 'User' #input = "{ 'email_addresses':[{'email_address':'#{email_address}'}], 'lists':[{'id':'#{contact_list}'}], first_name':'Example', 'last_name':'User'}" #puts input puts new_contact.to_json puts contact_example.add_contact( new_contact ).to_json rescue RestClient::BadRequest => e puts "#{e.http_code} - #{e.http_body}" end end AddContactTest.new.do ```
