This library allows easy access to Best Buy API. To use this library you will need an API KEY, which you can get from BestBuy's site. You can find complete documentation at Best Buy Developer's site
This library is a gradle project, and all commands described below can be executed by just using the gradle script included in the root directory: gradlew (or gradlew.bat in Win).
To create the jar to be included in your project, just run:
./gradlew build
With the jar generated in the previous step included in your project classpath, you can use BestBuyClient class to start interacting with the API.
def bby = new BestBuyClient()
println "BEST BUY PRODUCTS: ${bby.getProducts().data}"The above example assumes you have set an environment variable 'BBY_API_KEY' with your Api Key.
If you want to provide it directly in your code, you can just call the correct constructor
def bby = new BestBuyClient("myApiKeyValue")
println "BEST BUY PRODUCTS: ${bby.getProducts().data}"There are two dependencies for this library (as you can check in build.gradle file):
- Log4j
- HttpBuilder
If you want to generate a distribution zip with complete dependencies jars included, you can run command:
./gradlew distZip
This command will generate the ZIP file in path ./build/distributions
Please check the com.bestbuy.Example class to see all
You can run the examples with the 'run' task. If you have the BBY_API_KEY environment variable set:
./gradlew run
If not, just provide it as an argument(e.g. 'myApiKeyValue':
./gradlew run -PexampleArgs=apiKey:myApiKeyValue
Complete Groovy Doc for the library can be generated with 'groovyDoc'
./gradlew groovyDoc
The spock tests can be executed by gradle's 'test' task:
./gradlew test
