NetSuite SuiteTalk API Wrapper

Primary LanguageRubyMIT LicenseMIT

Build Status

NetSuite Ruby SuiteTalk Gem

  • This gem will act as a wrapper around the NetSuite SuiteTalk WebServices API. Wow, that is a mouthful.
  • The gem does not cover the entire API, only the subset that we have found useful to cover so far.
  • Extending the wrapper is pretty simple. Check out the contribution help doc
  • NetSuite development is overall a pretty poor experience. We have a list of NetSuite Development Resources that might make things a bit less painful.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'netsuite'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install netsuite

This gem is built for ruby 1.9.x, checkout the 1-8-stable branch for ruby 1.8.x support.

Testing

Before contributing a patch make sure all existing tests pass.

git clone git://github.com/RevolutionPrep/netsuite.git
cd netsuite
bundle
bundle exec rspec

Usage

Configuration

Not sure how to find your account id? Search for "web service preferences" in the NetSuite global search.

NetSuite.configure do
  reset!
  
  # optional, defaults to 2011_2
  api_version	'2012_1'
  
  # optionally specify full wsdl URL (to switch to sandbox, for example)
  wsdl          "https://webservices.sandbox.netsuite.com/wsdl/v#{api_version}_0/netsuite.wsdl"
  
  # or specify the sandbox flag if you don't want to deal with specifying a full URL
  sandbox	true
  
  # often the netsuite servers will hang which would cause a timeout exception to be raised
  # if you don't mind waiting (e.g. processing NS via DJ), increasing the timeout should fix the issue
  read_timeout  100000
  
  # you can specify a file or file descriptor to send the log output to (defaults to STDOUT)
  log           File.join(Rails.root, 'log/netsuite.log')
  
  # login information
  email    	'email@domain.com'
  password 	'password'
  account   	'12345'
  role      	1111
end

There is a convenience method to configure NetSuite based on ENV variables.

Examples

CRUD Operations

# get a customer
customer = NetSuite::Records::Customer.get(:internal_id => 4)
customer.is_person

# or
NetSuite::Records::Customer.get(4).is_person

# get a list of customers
customers = NetSuite::Records::Customer.get_list(:list => [4, 5, 6])

# randomly assign a task
customer_support_reps = [12345, 12346]

task = NetSuite::Records::Task.new(
	:title => 'Take Care of a Customer',
	:assigned => NetSuite::Records::RecordRef.new(internal_id: customer_support_reps.sample),
	:due_date => DateTime.now + 1,
	:message => "Take care of this"
)

task.add

# this will only work on OS X, open a browser to the record that was just created
`open https://system.sandbox.netsuite.com/app/crm/calendar/task.nl?id=#{invoice.internal_id}`

task.update :message => 'New Message'

# using get_select_value with a custom record
NetSuite::Records::BaseRefList.get_select_value(
  field: 'custrecord_something',
  customRecordType: {
    '@internalId' => 10,
    '@xsi:type' => 'customRecord'
  }
)

# updating a custom field list
# you need to push ALL the values of ALL of the custom fields that you want set on the record
# you can't just push the values of the fields that you want to update: all of the values of
# other fields will then fall back to their default values
contact = NetSuite::Records::Contact.get(12345)
contact.custom_field_list.custentity_alistfield = { internal_id: 1 }
contact.custom_field_list.custentity_abooleanfield = true
contact.update(custom_field_list: contact.custom_field_list)

# getting a custom record
record = NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.get(
  # custom record type
  type_id: 10,
  # reference to instance of the custom record type
  internal_id: 100
)

# getting a list of custom records
records = NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.get_list(
  # netsuite internalIDs
  list: [1,2,3],
  # only needed for a custom record
  type_id: 1234
)

# adding a custom record
record = NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.new
record.rec_type = NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.new(internal_id: 10)
record.custom_field_list.custrecord_locationstate = "New Jersey"
record.add

# updating a custom record
record = NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.new(internal_id: 100)
record.custom_field_list.custrecord_locationstate = "New Jersey"
record.update(custom_field_list: record.custom_field_list, rec_type: NetSuite::Records::CustomRecord.new(internal_id: 10))
