packagecloud-ruby

Ruby library for communicating with the packagecloud.io API.

• Homepage
• Documentation
• Email

Goals

This library aims to have widest amount of compatibility possible between Ruby versions and implementations. All dependencies are pure Ruby and kept to a minimum to ensure this.

Tested Rubies

• Ruby 1.8.x, 1.9x, and 2.x

Implemented API Endpoints

• Get Package Contents
• Upload Package
• List Distributions
• View Repository
• View Repositories
• Create Repository

Installation

gem install packagecloud-ruby

Getting your API token

Login to packagecloud.io and go to your Account Settings to see your API token.

Creating a Client

Note that you should not use the email address associated with your packagecloud.io account when accessing the API. Please use your username on the site.

require 'packagecloud'

# Create a client using your username and API token
credentials = Packagecloud::Credentials.new("joedamato", "my_api_token")
@client = Packagecloud::Client.new(credentials)

Result objects

Every client API method call returns a Result object, which is simply:

module Packagecloud
  class Result
    attr_accessor :response
    attr_accessor :succeeded
  end
end

If .succeeded is true then, .response is the parsed JSON response of that endpoint, otherwise .response is the error text explaining what went wrong.

Usage

Distributions

This is the list of currently supported distributions.

# Get all distributions
distros = @client.distributions

# Looking up a distribution id by name
id = @client.find_distribution_id("el/6") # returns 27

Repositories

# Looking up all repositories available for a client
repos = @client.repositories

# Lookup info on a single repo
repo = @client.repository("my_repo")

# Creating a repository
@client.create_repository("my_repo")

When specifying your repository name, you should use just the name and not the fully qualified name (fqname).

For example:

# INCORRECT: this should just be "my_repo"
repo = @client.repository("user/my_repo")

Packages

# Create RPM Packages (can take File, IO, or path argument)
rpm_package = Packagecloud::Package.new(:file => "libcurl-0.1.2.rpm")

# Creating gem Packages using IO (needs :filename passed in)
gem_package = Packagecloud::Package.new(:file => io_object, :filename => "rails-4.0.0.gem")

# Creating source Packages
source_files = { "jake_1.0.orig.tar.bz2" => open("/path/jake_1.0.orig.tar.bz2"),
                 "jake_1.0-7.debian.tar.gz" => open("/path/jake_1.0-7.debian.tar.gz") }
dsc_package = Packagecloud::Package.new(:file => "jake_1.0-7.dsc", :source_files => source_files)

# Upload Packages
@client.put_package("test_repo", gem_package)
@client.put_package("test_repo", rpm_package, "el/6")
@client.put_package("test_repo", dsc_package, "ubuntu/trusty")
@client.put_package("test_repo", node_package, "node")
