A Ruby Interface to the Jive REST API (https://developers.jivesoftware.com/api/rest).
Apologies, but the documentation is low down on my list of priorities for the project I am working on at the moment. This code is messy and could do with some refactoring. There are bugs and it's a work in progress.
Simple Example:
require 'jive_api'
j = Jive::Api '<username>', '<password>', '<uri of your jive server>'
me = j.person_by_username '<username>'
puts me.display_nameJive::API instances have methods that can query Jive for various types of objects. Jive::API handles the work of pagination and marshaling the responses into Ruby objects.
spaces = j.spaces
spaces.class
=> Array
spaces.first.class
=> Jive::Space
space = spaces.first
space.name
=> "My Cool Space"
space.id
=> 1023contents = space.contents
contents.class
=> Array
doc = contents.first
doc.class
=> Jive::Document
doc.content_methods
=> [:get,
:attachments,
:has_attachments?,
:author,
:visibility,
:updated_at,
:content_id,
:comments,
:raw_data,
:uri,
:type,
:parent,
:id,
:self_uri,
:subject,
:display_name,
:html_uri,
:display_path]
doc.get
=> "<body>..."
doc.type
=> "document"
doc.subject
=> "Some cool document"Jive::API instances can be created with different caching mechanisms. By default Jive::API will attempt to use Memcached running on localhost:11211. However, if you don't want to use Memcached you can create an instance using in-memory hashing:
j = Jive::Api.new("user","password","url", Jive::Cache::Hashcache)There is some code in the /examples directory.
Creates a CSV file called output.csv with the author, type, update time, "path" (where in Jive the content is located) and name.
Run it with;
ruby ./content-csv.rb <username> <password> <url>
Where URL is http://servername
