peoplehr

PeopleHR is an online system for managing your organisation’s HR issues.

It offers an API for manipulating that information — either to pull information out of it, or to modify what’s there. This can be useful for things like creating telephone directories, pulling employees’ birthday dates into a calendar, and lots of other things besides.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'peoplehr'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install peoplehr

Usage

At the moment, the library can be used only to fetch employee data.

The Employees class functions as a repository, with finder methods to restrict the data returned. Use Employees.all to get data for all employees:

api = API.new(api_key: "abc123abc123")
employees = Employees.new(api)

employees.all

This returns an array of Employee objects, each of which contains the information stored in PeopleHR for that particular employee.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
