RestClient
==========
RestClient is a generic REST client library. It generates structs and functions
for use with APIs. I currently use it for interfacing the
[Paymill](https://developers.paymill.com/API) API from Elixir.
# Setup
Add RestClient and ibrowse as dependencies in your `mix.exs`:
defp deps do
[
{:rest_client, "~> 0.0.1"},
{:ibrowse, github: "cmullaparthi/ibrowse", tag: "v4.1.2"}
]
end
Add RestClient as application in your `mix.exs`:
def application do
[applications: [:logger, :rest_client]]
end
# Example Usage
defmodule Test do
api "http://test.com"
end
def Test.User do
resource Test, [:id, :username, :email]
end
This will give you the following functions:
* `Test.User.index/1`
* `Test.User.update/3`
* `Test.User.show/2`
* `Test.User.create/2`
* `Test.User.delete/2`
The first parameter is used to pass in authentication (currently we assume
http basic authentication), e.g.
Test.index {"myuser", "mypass"}
