A Ruby wrapper for the FullContact API
config.auth_type = :header
control.plissken
gem to support Rails 5 (#42)ArgumentError
if query by Facebook ID/username is used.include_headers_in_response = true
includes response headers in returned payload
http_headers
in response. Also accessible on thrown errors (e.g. RateLimited)skip_rubyize = true
in config block.multi_xml
removedgem install fullcontact
http://rdoc.info/gems/fullcontact
require 'fullcontact'
# This could go in an initializer
FullContact.configure do |config|
config.api_key = 'fullcontact_api_key_goes_here'
end
# Get information about an email address
person = FullContact.person(email: 'bart@fullcontact.com')
All returned values are Hashie structs. You can access fields as if they were fields:
# Get person's family_name
person.contact_info.family_name
=> "Lorang"
But you can also turn it into a normal hash
# Get person's family_name
person.to_hash['contact_info']['family_name']
=> "Lorang"
Authentication is done through query parameters by default. If you want to use headers instead:
# This could go in an initializer
FullContact.configure do |config|
config.api_key = 'fullcontact_api_key_goes_here'
config.auth_type = :headers # :header or :query
end
There's other ways you can query the Person API:
# Get information about an email address, organized by hashes vs. lists
person2 = FullContact.person(email: 'bart@fullcontact.com', style: 'dictionary')
# You can pass in any arbitrary parameters the Person API supports
person3 = FullContact.person(email: 'bart@fullcontact.com', style: 'dictionary', webhookUrl: 'https://...')
# Get information about a twitter handle
person4 = FullContact.person(twitter: "bartlorang")
# Get information from a phone number
person6 = FullContact.person(phone:13037170414)
# Get information about a twitter and ensure a 30s socket open timeout and a 15s socket read timeout
# Can throw a Faraday::Error::TimeoutError if timeouts are exceeded
person7 = FullContact.person({:twitter => "bartlorang"}, {:request => {:timeout => 15, :open_timeout => 30}})
Response formats can more closely mirror FullContact's APIs by disabling snake_case transformation:
FullContact.configure do |config|
config.api_key = "fullcontact_api_key_goes_here"
config.skip_rubyize = true
end
person8 = FullContact.person(email: "bart@fullcontact.com")
=> #<Hashie::Mash contactInfo=#<Hashie::Mash chats=[#<Hashie::Mash client="gtalk" handle="lorangb@gmail.com">,
#<Hashie::Mash client="skype" handle="bart.lorang">] familyName="Lorang" fullName="Bart Lorang" givenName="Bart...
You can also query the Company API
# Get information about a company
company1 = FullContact.company(domain: 'fullcontact.com')
company1.organization.name
=> "FullContact Inc."
The Company API also supports searching by company name. Please see our API documentation for more details.
# Gets a list of search results for a company name ordered by relevance
companies = FullContact.company(companyName: 'FullContact')
# Get the API url for full company profile lookup (append api key to use)
# Note the array access, we are just grabbing the first (top) result
companies[0].company_api_link
=> "https://api.fullcontact.com/v2/company/lookup?domain=fullcontact.com&apiKey="
companies[0].org_name
=> "FullContact Inc."
