BrazeRuby

A wrapper for the Braze REST API. Forked from https://github.com/DynamoMTL/appboy

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'braze_ruby'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install braze_ruby

Configuration

Configuration options may be passed when a new API object is instantiated:

BrazeRuby::API.new('<braze-rest-api-key>', '<braze-rest-url', {<additional options>})

Alternatively, you can pass your Braze REST API key, Braze REST URL, and any required Faraday options to the BrazeRuby::configure method:

BrazeRuby.configure do |config|
  config.rest_api_key = '<braze-rest-api-key>'
  config.rest_url = '<braze-rest-url>'
  config.options = {<additional options>}
end
