just_giving

A ruby wrapper for the justgiving.com API (https://api.justgiving.com/docs)

Installation

gem install just_giving

Usage

Simple Donation Integration

Just giving provides 2 separate API's - Simple Donation Integration (SDI) for making donations and an XML API for querying and creating data.

This gem currently provides functionality to link to SDI, if you are using rails you can use view helpers like so:

<%= link_to 'Click to donate', just_giving_charity_page_url('short_name') %>
<%= link_to 'Click to donate', just_giving_charity_donation_page_url('id', 
  {:suggested_amount => 2..100000, :donation_id => 'JUSTGIVING-DONATION-ID', :amount => 2..100000, 
  :frequency => %w(single monthly), :exit_url => 'http://myredirect.com'}) %>
<%= link_to 'Click to donate', just_giving_fundraising_page_url('short_url') %>
<%= link_to 'Click to donate', just_giving_fundraising_donation_url('pageId', 
  {:suggested_amount => 2..100000, :amount => 2..100000, :exit_url => 'http://myredirect.com', 
  :donation_id => 'JUSTGIVING-DONATION-ID'}) %>)

As you can see just_giving_charity_donation_page_url and just_giving_fundraising_donation_url take and optional options hash - supply as many or as few of these as you need.

API

Configure

JustGiving::Configuration.application_id = YOUR_APP_ID

JustGiving::Configuration.ca_path = "/System/Library/OpenSSL/certs" # (defaults to "/usr/lib/ssl/certs")

JustGiving::Configuration.environment = :production (defaults to :staging)

JustGiving::Configuration.username = '[email protected]' # Needed for actions that require auth

JustGiving::Configuration.password = 'secret' # Needed for actions that require auth

Account calls

JustGiving::Account.new(YOUR_EMAIL).pages

JustGiving::Account.new.create(=> 'Mr', :firstName => 'Test', :lastName => 'McTest', :address => {:line1 => 'Unit 100', :townOrCity => 'London', :country => 'UK', :postcodeOrZipcode => 'ec1r 0jh', :email => '[email protected]', :password => 'password', :acceptTermsAndConditions => true})

Fundraising calls

JustGiving::Fundraising.new('short-name').donations

For further examples please check the tests

Note that a 404 will raise a JustGiving::NotFound error

A 400 response means the params supplied are wrong - this will return an errors collection with the details, eg:

response = JustGiving::Account.new('[email protected]').password_reminder

response.errors # errors array

TODO

  • Finish off all calls

Contributing to just_giving

  • Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
  • Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
  • Fork the project
  • Start a feature/bugfix branch
  • Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
  • Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
