Autopilot API Ruby Client

Unofficial Ruby client for the AutopilotHQ API.

Installation

Add gem 'autopilot' to your application's Gemfile, and then run bundle to install.

Configuration

To get started, you need to configure the client with your secret API key. If you're using Rails, you should add the following to new initializer file in config/initializers/autopilot.rb.

require 'autopilot'
Autopilot.api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY'

For further options, read the advanced configuration section.

Note: Your API key is secret, and you should treat it like a password. You can find your API key in your Autopilot account settings.

Identifying a contact:

# Identify (create/update) a contact
contact3 = Autopilot::Contact.identify({
  Email: 'test@example.com'
})

Advanced configuration & testing

The following options are configurable for the client:

Autopilot.api_key
Autopilot.http_adapter # default: Autopilot::HTTPAdapter.new

By default, a shared instance of Autopilot::Client is created lazily in Autopilot.shared_client. If you want to create your own client, perhaps for test or if you have multiple API keys, you can:

# Create an custom client instance, and pass as last argument to resource actions
client = Autopilot::Client.new(:api_key => 'API_KEY',
  :api_base_url => 'https://api2.autopilothq.com/v1',
  :http_adapter => Autopilot::HTTPAdapter.new)
metrics_from_custom_client = Autopilot::Contact.identify({}, client)

# Or, you can set Autopilot.shared_client yourself
Autopilot.shared_client = Autopilot::Client.new(:api_key => 'API_KEY',
  :api_base_url => 'https://api.autopilot.com/v1',
  :http_adapter => Autopilot::HTTPAdapter.new)
metrics_from_custom_shared_client = Autopilot::Contact.identify
