Feedbin

A simple Ruby wrapper for v2 of the Feedbin.me REST API. Includes functionality for retrieving entries and subscribing to feeds.

This is an unoficial gem, and is not affiliated with Feedbin.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'feedbin'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install feedbin

Usage

Examples

@feedbin = FeedbinAPI.new('colby@aley.me','pa$$w0rd')

@feedbin.entries
# => (array of entry hashes)

#feedbin.entries(read: false)
# => (an array of unread entries as hashes)

@feedbin.unread_entries
# => (array of unread entry IDs)

entry_id = @feedbin.entries[0]["id"] # Let's get the ID of the first entry in our array.

@feedbin.entry(entry_id)
# => (entry)

@feedbin.mark_as_read(entry_id)
# => entry_id

@feedbin.mark_as_unread(entry_id)
# => entry_id

@feedbin.subscribe('http://colbyaley.com/feed')
# => 200

@feedbin.subscriptions
# => (an array with hashes of all subscriptions)

Sample Sinatra App

require 'sinatra'
require 'feedbin'

FEEDBIN = FeedbinAPI.new('colby@aley.me','pa$$w0rd')

get '/' do
  FEEDBIN.entries
end

get '/subscribe/:url' do
  FEEDBIN.subscribe(url.to_s)
end

…you get the picture.

Todo

• Move away from HTTParty because of it’s massive overhead.

Testing

Rspec is used for tests. WebMock is used to avoid touching the live Feedbin API.

Please add tests when contrinuting, and make sure that they all pass before submitting a PR.
