Initialization and Configuration

# To initialize a Seeuletter object
seeuletter = Seeuletter::Client.new(api_key: "your-api-key")

Create a new letter

# send the letter
require 'seeuletter'

# initialize Seeuletter object
seeuletter = Seeuletter::Client.new(api_key: '<PUT_YOU_API_KEY_HERE>')

puts seeuletter.letters.create(
  description: "Test letter from the Ruby Wrapper",
  to: {
    name: 'Erlich',
    address_line1: '30 rue de rivoli',
    address_line2: '',
    address_city: 'Paris',
    address_country: 'France',
    address_postalcode: '75004'
  },
  source_file: '<html>Hello {{name}}</html>',
  source_file_type: 'html',
  postage_type: 'prioritaire',
  variables: { name: 'Erlich'},
  color: 'color'
)

List all letters

require 'seeuletter'

seeuletter = Seeuletter::Client.new(api_key: 'test_12345678901234567890')

puts seeuletter.letters.list()

Get a specific letter

require 'seeuletter'

seeuletter = Seeuletter::Client.new(api_key: 'test_12345678901234567890')

puts seeuletter.letters.find('LETTER_ID')

Get the price of a letter

require 'seeuletter'

seeuletter = Seeuletter::Client.new(api_key: 'test_12345678901234567890')

puts seeuletter.letter_price.get(color: 'bw', postage_type: 'prioritaire', postage_speed: 'D1', page_count: 1)

Caution: Pass zero-prefixed postal codes as strings

When using postal codes with zero-prefixes, always quote them. For example when specifying 02125, pass it as a string "02125", instead of an integer.

The Ruby interpreter assumes it's not of base-10 and tries to convert it to base-10 number. So that might result in an entirely different postal code than intended.

Accessing Response Headers

You can access response headers via a hidden headers method on the response hash.

addresses = seeuletter.addresses.list

addresses._response.headers[:content_type]
# => "application/json"

Examples

We've provided various examples for you to try out here.

There are simple scripts to demonstrate how to create all letters with the Seeuletter API Ruby wrapper.
