Mediaburst Gem

In order to make it stupidly simple to integrate with the Mediaburst API, I was asked to develop a Ruby Gem that could provide an easy to use interface for Ruby developers.

Installation

Install the gem as normal:

sudo gem install mediaburst

The Mediaburst gem also relies on Nokogiri for XML parsing.

Usage

Create an instance of the Mediaburst client:

client = Mediaburst::API.new('username', 'password')

Send an SMS:

response = client.send_message('441234567890', 'My test message')

Send a message to several numbers:

response = client.send_message(['441234567890', '441234567891', '441234567892'], 'My test message')

Send a long message to several numbers using the concat option:

options = {
  :concat => 3
}

response = client.send_message(['441234567890', '441234567891', '441234567892', '44'], SOME_LONG_MESSAGE, options)

Check the response for errors:

y response
=> ---
   "441234567890": true
   "441234567891": true
   "441234567892": true
   "44": 10

On error, the value of the key referenced by the number will equal the error code returned from Mediaburst.

Development

The source for the gem is hosted on GitHub for you to peruse, fork and contribute to.

To enable us to easily manage your contributions, please submit your pull requests as single commits that include tests to show your changes working as normal. Please do not change the version number - we’ll take care of that as we merge your changes.
