Thin wrapper around Russian Post package tracking SOAP API. Works on a per-package basis (contrary to the bulk ticket-based API). Use it at your own risk, since the API may appear unstable and require authorization in future.

Russian Post API Client

Build Status Code Climate Gem Version

Ruby client for Russian Post package tracking SOAP API. Works on a per-package basis (contrary to the bulk ticket-based API). The client tries to be smart and fills gaps in the information provided by Russian Post using external knowledge.

Use it at your own risk, since the API may appear unstable and require authorization in future.

Installation

To install gem stand-alone:

gem install russianpost

To use gem in a Rails app, add the following to your Gemfile:

gem 'russianpost', '~> 0.7.0'

This gem uses Savon, which in turn uses HTTPI internally. HTTPI chooses the best HTTP library of those you have installed. For the best performance add Curb to your Gemfile:

gem 'curb'
gem 'russianpost'

If you use RussianPost outside Rails, require 'curb' before requiring RussianPost.

Usage

Initialize a parcel object, passing the package barcode to the constructor:

parcel = RussianPost::Parcel.new('EC123456789RU')

Fetch operation history for the parcel:

parcel.operations

The operations method returns an Array of Operation structs.

Parcel info

RussianPost makes guesses about current state of the parcel.

# Current parcel location
parcel.location

# Mass
parcel.mass

# Rank
parcel.rank

# Recipient
parcel.recipient

# Type
parcel.type

Barcode validator

You can use the included barcode validator separately. It not only validates the format of a barcode, but also calculates check digits and tests barcodes against them.

barcode = RussianPost::Barcode.new('EC123456789RU')
barcode.valid? #=> false

barcode = RussianPost::Barcode.new('RD025500807SE')
barcode.valid? #=> true

Operations API

Each Operation responds to the following methods. If there is no information, methods return nil. See the wiki for a list of what else can be returned.
