Increase

A Ruby API client for Increase, a platform for Bare-Metal Banking APIs!

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add increase

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install increase

Usage

require 'increase'

# Grab your API key from https://dashboard.increase.com/developers/api_keys
Increase.api_key = 'my_api_key'
Increase.base_url = 'https://api.increase.com'

# List transactions
Increase::Transactions.list

# Retrieve a transaction
Increase::Transactions.retrieve('transaction_1234abcd')

# Create an ACH Transfer
Increase::AchTransfers.create(
  account_id: 'account_1234abcd',
  amount: 100_00, # 10,000 cents ($100 dollars)
  routing_number: '123456789',
  account_number: '9876543210',
  statement_descriptor: 'broke the bank for some retail therapy'
)

Per-request Configuration

By default, the client will use the global API key and configurations. However, you can define a custom client to be used for per-request configuration.

For example, you may want to have access to production and sandbox data at the same.

sandbox = Increase::Client.new(
  api_key: 'time_is_money',
  base_url: 'https://sandbox.increase.com'
)

# This request will use the `sandbox` client and its configurations
Increase::Transactions.with_config(sandbox).list
# => [{some sandbox transactions here}, {transaction}, {transaction}]

# This request will still use the global configurations (where the API key is a production key)
Increase::Transactions.list
# => [{some production transactions here}, {transaction}, {transaction}]

See the Configuration section for more information on the available configurations.

Pagination

When listing resources (e.g. transactions), Increase limits the number of results per page to 100. Luckily, the client will automatically paginate through all the results for you!

Increase::Transactions.list(limit: :all) do |transactions|
  # This block will be called once for each page of results
  puts "I got #{transactions.count} transactions!"
end

# Or, if you'd like a gargantuan array of all the transactions
Increase::Transactions.list(limit: :all)
Increase::Transactions.list(limit: 2_000)

Watch out for the rate limit!

Error Handling

Whenever you make an oopsies, the client will raise an error! Errors originating from the API will be a subclass of Increase::ApiError.

begin
  Increase::Transactions.retrieve('transaction_1234abcd')
rescue Increase::ApiError => e
  puts e.message # "[404: object_not_found_error] Could not find the specified object. No resource of type ..."
  puts e.title # "Could not find the specified object."
  puts e.detail # "No resource of type transaction was found with ID transaction_1234abcd."
  puts e.status # 404

  puts e.response # This contains the full response from the API, including headers! (its a Faraday::Env object)

  puts e.class # Increase::ObjectNotFoundError (it's a subclass of Increase::ApiError!)
end

To disable this behavior, set Increase.raise_api_errors = false. Errors will then be returned as a normal response.

Increase.raise_api_errors = false # Default: true

Increase::Transactions.retrieve('transaction_1234abcd')
# => {"status"=>404, "type"=>"object_not_found_error", ... }

Configuration

Name	Description	Default
api_key	Your Increase API Key. Grab it from https://dashboard.increase.com/developers/api_keys	nil
base_url	The base URL for Increase's API. You can use :production (https://api.increase.com), :sandbox (https://sandbox.increase.com), or set an actual URL	"https://api.increase.com"
raise_api_errors	Whether to raise an error when the API returns a non-2XX status. Learn more about Increase's errors here. See error classes here	true

There are multiple syntaxes for configuring the client. Choose your favorite!

# Set the configurations directly
Increase.api_key = 'terabytes_of_cash' # Default: nil (you'll need one tho!)
Increase.base_url = :production # Default: :production
Increase.raise_api_errors = true # Default: true

# Or, you can use a block
Increase.configure do |config|
  config.api_key = 'digital_dough'
  config.base_url = :sandbox
  config.raise_api_errors = false
end

# Or, you can pass in a hash
Increase.configure(api_key: 'just_my_two_cents')

Idempotency

Increase supports idempotent requests to allow for safely retrying requests without accidentally performing the same operation twice.

card = Increase::Cards.create(
  {
    # Card parameters
    account_id: 'account_1234abcd',
    description: 'My Chipotle card'
  },
  {
    # Request headers
    'Idempotency-Key': 'use a V4 UUID here'
  }
)
# => {"id"=>"card_1234abcd", "type"=>"card", ... }

idempotent_replayed = card.response.headers['Idempotent-Replayed']
# => "false"

Reusing the key in subsequent requests will return the same response code and body as the original request along with an additional HTTP header (Idempotent-Replayed: true). This applies to both success and error responses. In situations where your request results in a validation error, you'll need to update your request and retry with a new idempotency key.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

You can also run INCREASE_API_KEY=my_key_here INCREASE_BASE_URL=https://sandbox.increase.com bin/console to run the console with your Increase sandbox API key pre-filled.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.

To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Alternatively, use gem-release and run gem bump --version patch|minor|major. Then release the gem by running bundle exec rake release.
