Anilistrb

A simple API wrapper for AniList's GraphQL APIv2

This is a small side project for a practical introduction to both Ruby and GraphQL, so its not perfect

Also learned some of the basics of Rubocop, Rspec, Rake, Ruby metaprogramming, and publishing a ruby gem

• https://rubygems.org/gems/Anilistrb
• Put in gemfile: gem Anilistrb
• Execute: bundle
• or manually gem install Anilistrb
• Update gem update Anilistrb

require 'Anilistrb/Client'

client = Anilistrb::Client.new
anime = client.search_anime('Konosuba')
puts anime
# [ANIME] 21202 - {
#  "romaji"=>"Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!", 
#  "english"=>"KONOSUBA -God's blessing on this wonderful world!",
#  "native"=>"この素晴らしい世界に祝福を！" }

p anime.attributes # ["id", "title", "type", "format", "status", "description", "start_date", "end_date", "season", ... ]

puts anime.data # Raw request data as a hash

user = client.search_user('barrettotte') 
puts user # [USER] 247578 - barrettotte

list = client.get_animelist(247578)
puts list
# ANIME list for [USER] 247578 - barrettotte
#       Completed: 244   item(s)
#       Current:   9     item(s)
#       Dropped:   1     item(s)
#       Paused:    0     item(s)
#       Planning:  284   item(s)
#       Repeating: 0     item(s)

Note: Media, MediaList, and User objects extend from AnilistObj which is an object with properies dynamically built from the fields returned from a GraphQL query results. To easily get a list of a child's properties: call some_obj.attributes

• get_anime(id)
• get_manga(id)
• get_animelist(userId)
• get_mangalist(userId)
• search_anime(search)
• search_manga(search)
• search_anime_paged(search, perPage, page)
• search_manga_paged(search, perPage, page)
• search_user(search)
• gql_request(query string, variables struct)

• bundle install to install dependencies
• rake spec run tests
• bundle exec rake install install locally

• commit + push all changes, increment version in ./lib/Anilistrb/version.rb
• gem build Anilistrb.gemspec && gem push Anilistrb-x.x.x.gem
