Takes nice Ruby parameter hashes and spits out whatever crap you need it to. A simple way to provide a custom Ruby interface for the request side of an API wrapper. Based on @mislav's nibbler[https://github.com/mislav/nibbler].


== Installation

  gem install spitter


== Example Usage

=== Transform Key

  class ApiClient < Spitter
    parameter :ruby_param => 'apiCamelCaseDataFlag'
  end

  $ ApiClient.parse(:purchasable => '1')
  => {'apiCamelCaseDataFlag' => '1'}

=== Transform Value with Lambda

  class ApiClient < Spitter
    parameter :ruby_param => 'apiCamelCaseDataFlag', :with => lambda {|v| v ? '1' : '0'}
  end

  $ ApiClient.parse(:purchasable => true)
  => {'apiCamelCaseDataFlag' => '1'}

=== Transform Value with Class

  class ApiClient < Spitter
    class TrueOrFalse
      def self.parse(val)
        val ? '1' : '0'
      end
    end

    parameter :ruby_param => 'apiCamelCaseDataFlag', :with => TrueOrFalse
  end

  $ ApiClient.parse(:purchasable => true)
  => {'apiCamelCaseDataFlag' => '1'}

=== Transform Value Only

  class ApiClient < Spitter
    parameter :timestamp, :with => lambda{|v| v.to_i.to_s }
  end

  $ ApiClient.parse(:timestamp => Time.now)
  => {'timestamp' => '1341162393'}
