Overview

This ruby API works with steemd-0.19.10 and other AppBase compatible upstreams. To access different API namespaces, use the following:

api = Steem::Api.new
api.get_dynamic_global_properties

The above example will make an instance that can access the condenser_api namespace. Alternatively, you may also create a direct instances with its full name, if you prefer:

api = Steem::CondenserApi.new
api.get_dynamic_global_properties

If you know the name of another API that is supported by the remote node, you can create an instance to that instead, for example:

api = Steem::MarketHistoryApi.new
api.get_volume

All known API by namespace:

  • AccountByKeyApi

  • AccountHistoryApi

  • BlockApi

  • DatabaseApi

  • FollowApi

  • Jsonrpc

  • MarketHistoryApi

  • NetworkBroadcastApi

  • TagsApi

  • WitnessApi

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(m, *args, &block) ⇒ Object (private)
