adcloud-api

A little wrapper for the adcloud API. It provides all the required classes and configuration options to access the adcloud API and interact with it. Moreover, you can use it to post-process incoming callbacks (implemented via http webhooks).

This is the official ruby gem for the adcloud API. If you have any problems or requests please contact api@adcloud.com

Warning

  • API does not yet support Campaign Updates
  • API might change until it goes public, so expect changes!

Installation

In order to install the gem, run

gem install adcloud

or if you are using bundler, add the following to your Gemfile

gem 'adcloud'

Configuration

You always need to provide your adcloud client id and secret. Contact info@adcloud.com to get an account and credentials.

Adcloud.configure do |c|
  c.client_id = '1234567890'
  c.client_secret = '09876543'
end

Enable debug mode to log http requests and setup logging

Adcloud.configure do |c|
  c.debug = true # default false
  c.logger = Logger.new # defaults to STDOUT or Rails.logger if available
end

Authentication

Usually you wont need to do this, as the gem authenticates against the api by itself. But if you wanna play with the API yourself, this might come in handy to get a valid auth token.

adcloud_auth = Adcloud::Authentication.new(
  :client_id => Adcloud.config.client_id,
  :client_secret => Adcloud.config.client_secret)
adcloud_auth.authenticate!
adcloud_auth.token # returns an oauth access_token

Advertisement

Read all advertisement objects

Adcloud::Advertisement.all

Filtering

Adcloud::Advertisement.all({ active: true })

Available filter keys are:

  • campaign
  • product
  • active

Pagination

Adcloud::Advertisement.all(nil, 2, 10)

Read/Find a advertisement

Adcloud::Advertisement.find_by_id(42)

Create/Write a new advertisement

advertisement = Adcloud::Advertisement.new({ your: 'attributes' })
advertisement.create

Campaign

Fetch campaigns list

Read all campaigns which belong to your account

Adcloud::Campaign.all

If the list gets too long, you can paginate and filter it. Provide a hash of filter criteria as the first parameter:

Adcloud::Campaign.all({ filter_key: 'filter value' })

Available filter keys are:

company, country, customer, delivery_type, destination, managed, name,
product, status, type

Optionally set the page and page size as second and third parameter

Adcloud::Campaign.all({ status: 'online' })
Adcloud::Campaign.all({ status: 'online' }, 2, 10)

Creating a New Campaign Object

campaign = Adcloud::Campaign.new({ your: 'attributes' })

Read a single campaign

Adcloud::Campaign.find_by_id(42)

Validate a campaign

campaign = Adcloud::Campaign.new({ your: 'attributes' })
campaign.valid? # returns true/false

Create a new campaign

Create a campaign by calling create on an initialized object. It will return true when the campaign was created successfully and sets the id on the object. Otherwise errors would provide you with the reason why it failed.

campaign = Adcloud::Campaign.new({ your: 'attributes' })
campaign.create # returns a boolean
campaign.errors

Alternatively, you could use the static method

campaign = Adcloud::Campaign.create({ your: 'attributes' })
