TaxJar Sales Tax API for Ruby RubyGems Build Status

TaxJar

A Ruby interface to the TaxJar Sales Tax API. TaxJar makes sales tax filing easier for online sellers and merchants. See local jurisdictional tax reports, get payment reminders, and more. You can use our API to access TaxJar API endpoints, which can get information on sales tax rates, categories or upload transactions.

  • This wrapper supports 100% of SmartCalcs v2
  • Data returned from API calls are mapped to Ruby objects

Supported Ruby Versions

Ruby 2.0 or greater

Gem Dependencies

Installing this gem also bundles the following dependencies:

  • http - Fast Ruby HTTP client with a chainable API and full streaming support.
  • addressable - Replacement for the URI implementation that is part of Ruby's standard library. It more closely conforms to the relevant RFCs and adds support for IRIs and URI templates.
  • memoizable - Memoize method return values.
  • model_attribute - Type casted attributes for non-ActiveRecord models. Forked to handle floats and more types.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'taxjar-ruby', require: 'taxjar'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install taxjar-ruby

Authentication

Generate an API token from TaxJar. Copy and paste your API token when instantiating a new client:

require 'taxjar'
client = Taxjar::Client.new(api_key: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN')

You're now ready to use TaxJar! Check out our quickstart guide to get up and running quickly.

Custom Options

Pass a hash to any API method above for the following options:

Timeouts

Set request timeout in seconds:

client.tax_for_order({ timeout: 30 })

Sandbox Environment

You can easily configure the client to use the TaxJar Sandbox:

require 'taxjar'
client = Taxjar::Client.new(api_key: 'YOUR_SANDBOX_API_TOKEN', api_url: 'https://api.sandbox.taxjar.com')

For testing specific error response codes, pass the custom X-TJ-Expected-Response header:

client.set_api_config('headers', {
  'X-TJ-Expected-Response' => 422
})

Error Handling

When invalid data is sent to TaxJar or we encounter an error, we’ll throw a Taxjar::Error with the HTTP status code and error message. To catch these exceptions, refer to the example below. Click here for a list of common error response classes.

require 'taxjar'
client = Taxjar::Client.new(api_key: '9e0cd62a22f451701f29c3bde214')

begin
  order = client.create_order({
    :transaction_date => '2015/05/14',
    :to_country => 'US',
    :to_state => 'CA',
    :to_zip => '90002',
    :amount => 17.45,
    :shipping => 1.5,
    :sales_tax => 0.95
  })
rescue Taxjar::Error => e
  # <Taxjar::Error::NotAcceptable: transaction_id is missing>
  puts e.class.name
  puts e.message
end

Tests

An RSpec test suite is available to ensure API functionality:
