Basic Usage

client = TrackerApi::Client.new(token: 'my-api-token')                    # Create API client

client.me.email                                                           # Get email for the authenticated person
client.activity                                                           # Get a list of all the activity performed the authenticated person
client.notifications                                                      # Get notifications for the authenticated person

projects = client.projects                                                # Get all projects
project  = client.project(123456)                                         # Find project with given ID
project.activity                                                          # Get a list of all the activity performed on this project

project.stories                                                           # Get all stories for a project
project.stories(with_state: :unscheduled, limit: 10)                      # Get 10 unscheduled stories for a project
project.stories(filter: 'requester:OWK label:"jedi stuff"')               # Get all stories that match the given filters
project.create_story(name: 'Destroy death star')                          # Create a story with the name 'Destroy death star'

story = project.story(847762630)                                          # Find a story with the given ID
story.activity                                                            # Get a list of all the activity performed on this story

story.name = 'Save the Ewoks'                                             # Update a single story attribute
story.attributes = { name: 'Save the Ewoks', description: '...' }         # Update multiple story attributes
story.save                                                                # Save changes made to a story

epics = project.epics                                                     # Get all epics for a project
epic  = epics.first
label = epic.label                                                        # Get an epic's label

Eager Loading

See Pivotal Tracker API documentation for how to use the fields parameter.

client = TrackerApi::Client.new(token: 'my-api-token')                    # Create API client

client.project(project_id, fields: ':default,labels(name)')               # Eagerly get labels with a project
client.project(project_id, fields: ':default,epics')                      # Eagerly get epics with a project
client.project(project_id).stories(fields: ':default,tasks')              # Eagerly get stories with tasks
