Nexmo Number Insights with Rails

A Rails app to demonstrate how to use the Nexmo Number Insights API with Ruby on Rails.

Prerequisites

• A Nexmo account
• Ruby 2.5+
• Rails 5.2+

Getting Started

# clone this repository
git clone git@github.com:Nexmo/nexmo-rails-number-insights.git
# change to folder
cd nexmo-rails-number-insights
# install dependencies
bundle install
# copy example .env to actual .env
cp .env.sample .env

Next you will need to sign up for a Nexmo account, grabv your API credentials from the API dashboard, register a phone number and put your api_key and api_secret in the .env file.

Usage

To start your Rails application run the following from the command line:

# Set up the database
rake db:migrate
# Initialize the server
rails s

You can now visit localhost:3000/number_insights in your web browser.

You can enter any number from any country in the number input and choose any of the Number Insight options:

• Basic
• Standard
• Advanced

More information on each of these can be found on Nexmo Developer.

As this is a simple starter app, this app does not validate or store the responses.
