gem install 'referral_candy'
Initialize a client with your ReferralCandy credentials
rc = ReferralCandy.new(:access_id => "YOUR_ACCESS_ID", :secret_key => "YOUR_SECRET_KEY")
Verify your credentials.
response = rc.verify
response.parsed_response # => {"message"=>"Verification Ok"}
response.code # => 200
The ReferralCandy API client will perform the authentication steps for you. This means that you would not be required to pass in the 'timestamp', 'accessID', and 'signature' parameters.
API endpoints are available as methods in the ReferralCandy API client.
E.g.
rc.contacts(:limit => 1).parsed_response
# => {"message"=>"Success", "total_count"=>10000, "contacts"=>[{"id"=>1, "first_name"=>"Yink", "last_name"=>"Teo", "email"=>"hello@referralcandy.com", "purchase_made"=>false, "purchases"=>[], "unsubscribed"=>true}]}
The ReferralCandy API client uses HTTParty. API responses are wrapped in HTTParty::Response objects.
rc.verify.class # => HTTParty::Response
rc.verify.body # => "{\"message\":\"Verification Ok\"}"
rc.verify.parsed_response # => {"message"=>"Verification Ok"}
rc.verify.code # => 200
rc.verify.header # => #<Net::HTTPOK 200 OK readbody=true>
