Instamojo-rb

This is the Ruby library of Instamojo REST API. This will assist you to programmatically create, edit and delete links on Instamojo. Also supports RAP api for payments request, listing and status.

Installation

gem install Instamojo-rb For your Rails/bundler projects: gem 'Instamojo-rb'

Usage

Set API keys

require 'Instamojo-rb'
api = Instamojo::API.new do |app|
  app.api_key = "[email protected]"
  app.auth_token = "[email protected]"
end
#or
api = Instamojo::API.new("[email protected]", "[email protected]")

Generate client

client = api.client

Link object contains all the necessary information required to interpret, modify and archive an Instamojo Link. All link operations on client returns one or collectionn of links. Original response from Instamojo API for a link is encapsulated in link.original, which is immutable. Call #to_h on link to get it's all attributes. Helper methods for Link:

  • link.to_h - Returns equivalent Ruby hash for a link.
  • link.to_json - Returns equivalent JSON for a link
  • link.original - Returns original link data fetched from API.
  • link.save - Edits updates carried out on Link object at Instamojo.
  • link.archive - Archives link at Instamojo
  • link.reload or link.refresh - Looks for changes on Instamojo server for the link. Immutable
  • link.reload! or link.refresh! - Same as link.reload, but mutable.

  link.currency = 'INR'
  link.base_price = 0
  link.quantity = 10
  link.redirect_url = 'http://ankurgoel.com'
  link.file_upload = '~/Pictures/RISE.jpg'
  link.cover_image = '~/Pictures/saturday.jpg'
end
#=> Instamojo Link(slug: api-link-v11, title: API link v1.1, shorturl: )
new_link.reload!
#=> Instamojo Link(slug: api-link-v11, title: API link v1.1, shorturl: http://imojo.in/1dxv1h)

or

new_link_params = {base_price: 199, title: 'API link 3', description: 'My dummy offer via API', currency: 'INR', quantity: 20}
new_link = client.create_link(new_link_params)

link = client.link_detail('link_slug_goes_here')
#=> Instamojo Link(slug: link_slug_goes_here, title: Foo Bar, shorturl: http://imojo.in/ankurfoobar)
link.to_h
#=> {"title"=>"Foo Bar", "description"=>"", "slug"=>"foo-product", "shorturl"=>"http://imojo.in/ankurfoobar", "url"=>"https://www.instamojo.com/ankurgel/foo-product/", "cover_image"=> "https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/BHeefKAARCKGC5l1J29e/convert?w=500&h=500&fit=clip&quality=70", "currency"=>"INR", "base_price"=>"0.00", "quantity"=>nil, "quantity_sold"=>2, "requires_shipping"=>false, "ships_within_days"=>nil, "start_date"=>nil, "end_date"=>nil, "venue"=>"", "timezone"=>"", "note"=>"", "redirect_url"=>"", "webhook_url"=>"", "status"=>"Live", "enable_pwyw"=>false, "enable_sign"=>false, "socialpay_platforms"=>""}
