ContextIO - Extract data from email

Description

ContextIO is a Ruby wrapper for the Context.IO web service.

Context.IO is the missing email API that makes it easy and fast to integrate your user's email data in your application.

ContextIO follows the rules of Semantic Versioning and uses TomDoc for inline documentation.

Installation

The best way to install ContextIO is through Rubygems:

$ [sudo] gem install context-io

If you're installing from source, you can use Bundler to pick up all the gems:

$ bundle install

Usage

The ContextIO classes map pretty much one-to-one to the Context.IO API resources, which you can find on their documentation site.

Authenticate

ContextIO uses two-legged OAuth for authentication, which means you need to get an API key from Context.IO. The API key consists of a consumer key and a consumer secret, and once you have them you can set up ContextIO like this:

ContextIO.configure do |config|
  config.consumer_key = 'consumer key'
  config.consumer_secret = 'consumer secret'
end

Get an Account object

Once you're authenticated, you can get an Account object, which is what you will be dealing with most of the time.

account = ContextIO::Account.all.first

You can also find accounts matching a given email address.

account = ContextIO::Account.all(:email => 'me@example.org').first
