Installation

To use this gem during the beta, install directly from GitHub with Bundler by adding the following to your application's Gemfile:

gem "find-ai", git: "https://github.com/Find-AI/find-ai-ruby", branch: "main"

To fetch an initial copy of the gem:

bundle install

To update the version used by your application when updates are pushed to GitHub:

bundle update find-ai

Usage

require "find-ai"

find_ai = FindAI::Client.new(
  api_key: "My API Key" # defaults to ENV["FIND_AI_API_KEY"]
)

searches = find_ai.searches.retrieve

Errors

When the library is unable to connect to the API, or if the API returns a non-success status code (i.e., 4xx or 5xx response), a subclass of FindAI::HTTP::Error will be thrown:

begin
  search = find_ai.searches.retrieve
rescue FindAI::HTTP::Error => e
  puts e.code # 400
end

Error codes are as followed:

Status Code Error Type
400 BadRequestError
401 AuthenticationError
403 PermissionDeniedError
404 NotFoundError
409 ConflictError
422 UnprocessableEntityError
429 RateLimitError
>=500 InternalServerError
(else) APIStatusError
N/A APIConnectionError

Retries

Certain errors will be automatically retried 2 times by default, with a short exponential backoff. Connection errors (for example, due to a network connectivity problem), 408 Request Timeout, 409 Conflict, 429 Rate Limit, and >=500 Internal errors will all be retried by default.

You can use the max_retries option to configure or disable this:

# Configure the default for all requests:
find_ai = FindAI::Client.new(
  max_retries: 0 # default is 2
)

# Or, configure per-request:
find_ai.searches.retrieve(max_retries: 5)

Versioning

This package follows SemVer conventions. As the library is in initial development and has a major version of 0, APIs may change at any time.

Requirements

Ruby 3.0 or higher.
