DPD (Shipping Web API) 📦

Ruby SDK for working with DPD Web API.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dpd'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dpd

Usage

A subset of the DPD resources are provided with this SDK:

  • DPD::Shipment
  • DPD::Printout
  • DPD::Voucher
  • DPD::Pickup
  • DPD::Track

These resources have implemented the following methods to allow API operations:

  • find
  • create

Here's an example on how to create a shipment, request it's pickup and cancel it.

require 'dpd'

shipment = DPD::Shipment.create(
  service: {
    serviceId: ENV['DPD_SERVICE_ID'],
    autoAdjustPickupDate: true,
    saturdayDelivery: true
  },
  payment: { courierServicePayer: 'SENDER' },
  ref1: 'LNT_ORDER_ID',
  sender: { clientId: 'DPD_CLIENT_ID' },
  recipient: {
    privatePerson: true,
    contactName: 'Lunet Studio SRL',
    clientName: 'Lunet Studio SRL',
    phone1: {
      number: '+40728547184'
    },
    address: {
      countryId: ENV['DPD_COUNTRY_ID'],
      siteName: 'Bucharest',
      addressNote: 'Bld. Lascar Catargiu 15A, 12, Sector 1, 010661 Bucharest',
      addressLine1: 'Bld. Lascar Catargiu 15A, 12',
      addressLine2: 'Sector 1, 010661 Bucharest',
      postCode: '010661'
    }
  },
  content: {
    parcelsCount: 1,
    totalWeight: 0.5,
    contents: 'GLASSES',
    package: 'BOX'
  }
)

DPD::Pickup.create(
  explicitShipmentIdList: [shipment.id],
  visitEndTime: '19:00'
)

shipment.cancel('Customer request.')
