WordpressClient

WordpressClient is a very simple client for the Wordpress WP REST API plugin (version 2 beta 8.0).

Usage

Read the full API documentation

Initialize a client with a user name, password and API URL. You can then search for posts.

client = WordpressClient.new(url: "https://example.com/wp-json/", username: "example", password: "example")

client.posts(per_page: 5) # => [WordpressClient::Post, WordpressClient::Post]

Creating a post

You can create posts by calling create_post. If you supply a ID, the article will be created using PUT instead of POST.

data = {
  author: "Name",
  # ...
}

post = client.create_post(data) # => WordpressClient::Post
updated_post = client.update_post(post.id, title: "Updated") # => WordpressClient::Post

updated_post.title_html # => "Updated"

Running tests

You need to install Docker and set it up for your machine. Note that you need docker-machine to run Docker on OS X.

Run tests using the normal rspec command after installing all bundles.

bundle exec rspec

You can also run bundle exec guard to have tests run automatically when you change files in the repo. If you tag your examples with focus: true, Guard will only run those tests. This can help when doing very focused coding, but remember to remove the filter before you commit and let the entire suite run.

describe Foo, focus: true do
  # ...
end

The normal rspec command will not use this filter in case it is ever committed accidentally, so CI can catch any problems.

Releasing a new version

The normal gem release cycle works using rake release.

If you make changes to the docker image, you can release it using rake docker:release.
