Basecamp

This gem provides a simple wrapper for the Basecamp API (New, version 1) using OAuth authentication only. Currently it only supports functionality for Todos, TodoLists and Projects

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'basecamp'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install basecamp

Usage

Rails

Add the following to a file in your config directory

Basecamp.configure do |c|
  c.client_id = <your basecamp client_id>
  c.client_secret = <your basecamp secret>
end

OAuth2

This gem uses OAuth2 exclusively for authentication. Basecamp periodically expires their tokens, and they must be refreshed to continue to gain access to the API. There are methods included to facilitate this.

Initialize a new OAuth2 instance

oauth = Basecamp::OAuth.new(:token => <the users token>, :refresh_token => <the users refresh token>)

Get an array of all accounts associated with this token

oauth.get_accounts

Request a new token from Basecamp

oauth.get_new_token

Client

The client object creates an instance of a Basecamp OAuth client and provides methods to get an array of todo lists and an array of projects associated with the users token

Initialize a new instance of the client

client = Basecamp::Client.new(:token => <the users token>, :account_id => <the basecamp account to access>)

Get an array of todo lists. Returns an array of Basecamp::Todolist objects

client.todolists

Get an array of projects. Returns an array of Basecamp::Project objects

client.projects
