ImpactRadiusApi

Ruby wrapper for Impact Radius API. Only Media Partner Resources is curently supported.

If you need services that are not yet supported, feel free to contribute. For questions or bugs please create an issue.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'impact_radius_api'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install impact_radius_api

Configuration

This gem is designed to support Media Partner Resources. All requests to the Impact Radius REST API require you to use HTTP Basic Authentication to convey your identity.

The username is your AccountSid (a 34 character string identifying your API account, starting with the letters "IR"). The password is your authentication token (AuthToken). These values are available on the Technical Settings page of your account.

To start using the gem, you need to set up the AccountSid (username) and authentication token first. If you use Ruby on Rails, the API key can be set in a configuration file (i.e. app/config/initializers/impact_radius.rb), otherwise just set it in your script.

require "impact_radius_api" # no need for RoR  :account_sid, :auth_token,
ImpactRadiusAPI.auth_token = ENV["IR_AUTH_TOKEN"]
ImpactRadiusAPI.account_sid = ENV["IR_ACCOUNT_SID"]

Configuration Example

This applys to Ruby on Rails. Create app/config/initializer/impact_radius_api.rb and add the following:

ImpactRadiusAPI.auth_token = ENV["IR_AUTH_TOKEN"]
ImpactRadiusAPI.account_sid = ENV["IR_ACCOUNT_SID"]

Usage

ImpactRadiusAPI.auth_token = ENV["IR_AUTH_TOKEN"]  #can be in app/config/initializer/impact_radius_api.rb of RoR
ImpactRadiusAPI.account_sid = ENV["IR_ACCOUNT_SID"] #can be in app/config/initializer/impact_radius_api.rb of RoR
mediapartners = ImpactRadiusAPI::Mediapartners.new
options = {
  type: "BANNER" #for only banner ads default is both banner and text link.
