delicious_api is a pure Ruby client for the Delicious API. It provides an easy
way to read/write bookmarks, tags and bundles to Delicious accounts.
- an object oriented design:
Bookmark
,Tag
andBundle
classes - 100% covered by tests (check it for yourself!)
- 100% documented
- 100% Ruby 1.9 compatibility
The following gems are required:
sudo gem install activesupport hpricot
and then you can (and should) get it as a gem:
sudo gem install jbgutierrez-delicious_api --source http://gems.github.com
DeliciousApi::Base.wrapper = DeliciousApi::Wrapper.new 'account', 'secret'
Optionally, name your client (a.k.a. ‘user agent’) to something identifiable, such as your app’s name.
DeliciousApi::Base.wrapper = DeliciousApi::Wrapper.new 'account', 'secret', :user_agent => 'your-app-name'
In order not to get throttled, it will be a time gap of 1 second between each inner http request. Change this behaviour at your own risk:
DeliciousApi::Base.wrapper = DeliciousApi::Wrapper.new 'account', 'secret', :waiting_time_gap => 0
bookmark = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find 'http://www.yahoo.com/' bookmarks = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find_by_date Date.now, :tags => %w[yahoo web search] bookmarks = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find_recent :tag => 'yahoo', :limit => 10 bookmarks = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find_all :tag => 'yahoo', :limit => 10 bookmarks = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find_all :start_time => 2.days.ago, :end_time => Time.now
bookmark = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.new 'http://www.yahoo.com/' bookmark.save
bookmark = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find :url => 'http://www.yahoo.com/' bookmark.destroy
bookmark = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.find :url => 'http://www.yahoo.com/' bookmark.description = 'Yahoo!' bookmark.extended = 'My favorite site ever' bookmark.tags = %w[array of tags] bookmark.save # returns false bookmark.save! # returns true
#!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU require 'rubygems' require 'delicious_api' DeliciousApi::Base.wrapper = DeliciousApi::Wrapper.new 'source_account', 'secret' bookmarks = DeliciousApi::Bookmark.all DeliciousApi::Base.wrapper = DeliciousApi::Wrapper.new 'target_account', 'secret' bookmarks.each { |b| b.save }
The following specs are pending:
- should check to see when a user last posted an item. (PENDING: Not Yet Implemented)
- should list dates on which bookmarks were posted (PENDING: Not Yet Implemented)
- should fetch a change detection manifest of all items (PENDING: Not Yet Implemented)
- should set User-Agent to something identifiable (PENDING: Not Yet Implemented)
