LibrariesIO

This is a wrapper for Libraries.io's API.

It implements it in about 100 lines, thanks to the tlaw gem.

Installation

  1. Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'libraries_io'

And then execute:

$ bundle
  1. Get an API key from Libraries.io. A section below lists the different way to specify it.

Usage

Example:

api = LibrariesIO.new(api_key: 'your_key')

api.search('some_name') # => results

api.platform('rubygems').project('rails').contributors # => list of contributors

# Shortcut to platforms provided:
api.rubygems.project('rails') # ... same

Thanks to the tlaw gem, the mapping should be pretty obvious and you can check the API source for details, or use inspect or describe:

api.platform('rubygems').project('rails')
# => #<project(id: "rails") endpoints: info, dependencies, dependents, dependent_repositories, contributors, sourcerank, usage; docs: .describe

api.platform('rubygems').project('rails').describe
# => .project(id: "rails")
#  @param id
#
#  Endpoints:
#
#  .info()
#    Get information about a package and it's versions
#
#  .dependencies(version="latest")
#    Get a list of dependencies for a version of a project
#
#  .dependents()
#    Get packages that have at least one version that depends on a given project
#
#  .dependent_repositories()
#    Get repositories that depend on a given project
#
#  .contributors()
#    Get users that have contributed to a given project
#
#  .sourcerank()
#    Get breakdown of SourceRank score for a given project
#
#  .usage()
#    Get breakdown of version usage for a given project

api.platform('rubygems').project('rails').endpoints[:dependents].describe
# => .dependents()
#  Get packages that have at least one version that depends on a given project
#
#  Docs: https://libraries.io/api#project-dependents

API implemented

All documented calls are implemented (except "subscriptions"):

Note: All API endpoints accept parameters page and per_page.

API Key

You can specify the API key in various ways:

  • providing it when instantiating an API: LibrariesIO.new(api_key: 'your_key')
  • as an environment variable LIBRARIES_IO_API_KEY
  • setting the global LibrariesIO.api_key = "your_key" after the library is loaded
  • writing it in a local file .libraries_io_api_key

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
