Yipit

Simple Ruby wrapper for the Yipit API. Yipit features deals aggregated from a number of sources, includng Groupon, LivingSocial, Restaurants.com, and more.

Under development

This fork of the Yipit Gem now works, but unless you are part of the secret sauce, you have **BEEN WARNED**.

Installation

With gem install:

gem install yipit_n4l

Or with bundler:

	gem "yipit_n4l", require: "yipit"

Usage

You'll need a Yipit API key.

Instantiate

require 'Yipit'
client = Yipit::Client.new(YOUR_API_KEY)

Yipit uses a Hashie::Mash for return values, providing a handy hash that supports dot notation:

deal.title
=> "$100 Gift Certificate, Your Price $40"
deal.division.name
=> "New York"

Issues

GitHub issue tracking sucks. Submit issues to Lighthouse

How to contribute

• Fork the project.
• Make your feature addition or bug fix.
• Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
