# List users
users = client.users.list(page: 1, per_page: 10)
users.items     # The array of users
users.metadata  # The metadata object containing the total count

# Create a user with email / password
user =
  client.users.create(
    email: 'test@user.com',
    confirmation: '12345',
    password: '12345',
    custom_data: {
      age: 32
    })

# Get a users details by the id

  client.sessions.authenticate(
    email: 'test@user.com',
    password: '12345')

Forgot Password Flow

Using the passwords endpoint on the client you can perform a forgot password flow.

# Create an forgot password token for the user with the given email address.
token =
  client.passwords.forgot_password(email: 'test@user.com')

# Using that token set a new password.
user =
  client.passwords.set_password(
    forgot_password_token: token.forgot_password_token,
    confirmation: '123456',
    password: '123456')

# Get a file by id
file =
  client.files.get('file_id')

# Delete a file by id

  client.files.delete('file_id')

# Get a download URL to the file by id
url =
  client.files.download_url('file_id')

# Download the file by id into an IO
io =
  client.files.download('file_id')

# List images
images = client.images.list(page: 1, per_page: 10)

# Get a image by id
image =
  client.images.get('image_id')

# Delete a image by id

# Get a link to a prcessed version (crop & resize) of the image by id
url =
  client.images.image_url(i.id,
    crop: Base::Crop.new(width: 100, height: 100, top: 0, left: 0),
    resize: Base::Resize.new(width: 100, height: 100),
    format: 'jpg',
    quality: 10)

Mailing Lists

A project can have many mailing lists which can be managed from the interface.

The mailingLists endpoint allows you to programatically subscribe / unsubscribe emails to a mailing list and send emails to all subscribes using a single call.

# List mailing lists
lists = client.mailing_lists.list(page: 1, per_page: 10)
lists.items     # The array of mailing lists
lists.metadata  # The metadata object containing the total count

# Get a mailing list by id
list =
  client.mailing_lists.get('list_id')

# Subscribe an email to a mailing list.
list =
  client.mailing_lists.subscribe(id: 'mailing_list_id', email: 'test@user.com')

# Unsubscribe an email from a mailing list.
list =
  client.mailing_lists.unsubscribe(id: 'mailing_list_id', email: 'test@user.com')

# Get a public unsubscribe url for the given mailing list and email which
# when click unsubscribes a user from the mailing list and redirects to the
# unsubscribe_redirect_url of the list.
url =
  client.mailing_lists.unsubscribe_url(id: 'mailing_list_id', email: 'test@user.com')

# Send the same email to all of the subscribers
results =
  client.mailing_lists.send(
    from: 'from@example.com',
    id: 'mailing_list_id',
    subject: 'subject',
    html: 'HTML',
    text: 'Text')
