# BehindTheName
|
2
|
+
|
3
|
+
This is Ruby wrapper around the API provided from the BehindTheName.com website.
|
4
|
+
|
5
|
+
## Installation
|
6
|
+
|
7
|
+
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
|
8
|
+
|
9
|
+
```ruby
|
10
|
+
gem 'behind_the_name'
|
11
|
+
```
|
12
|
+
|
13
|
+
And then execute:
|
14
|
+
|
15
|
+
$ bundle install
|
16
|
+
|
17
|
+
Or install it yourself as:
|
18
|
+
|
19
|
+
$ gem install behind_the_name
|
20
|
+
|
21
|
+
## Usage
|
22
|
+
|
23
|
+
Refer to https://www.behindthename.com/api/help.php for the official documentation.
|
24
|
+
|
25
|
+
```ruby
|
26
|
+
BehindTheName.api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY'
|
27
|
+
BehindTheName.lookup(name: 'George', exact: true)
|
28
|
+
BehindTheName.random(usage: 'Celtic Mythology')
|
29
|
+
BehindTheName.related(name: 'Brigit', gender: :feminine)
|
30
|
+
```
|
31
|
+
|
32
|
+
I've no idea what the error codes mean, beyond the description given in the response.
|
33
|
+
|
34
|
+
## Development
|
35
|
+
|
36
|
+
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
|
37
|
+
|
38
|
+
Running `bin/scrape_appendices` will update the yml files; it will require that you `gem install oga` as well.
|
39
|
+
|
40
|
+
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
