ExTwilio v0.5.0 ExTwilio.Api View Source

Provides a basic HTTP interface to allow easy communication with the Twilio API, by wrapping HTTPotion.

Examples

Requests are made to the Twilio API by passing in a resource module into one of this Api module’s functions. The correct URL to the resource is inferred from the module name.

ExTwilio.Api.find(Resource, "sid")
%Resource{ sid: "sid", ... }

Items are returned as instances of the given module’s struct. For more details, see the documentation for each function.

Link to this function create(module, data, options \\ []) View Source

Create a new resource in the Twilio API with a POST request.

Examples

ExTwilio.Api.create(ExTwilio.Call, [to: "1112223333", from: "4445556666"])

Link to this function delete(url, headers \\ [], options \\ []) View Source

Issues a DELETE request to the given url.

Returns {:ok, response} if the request is successful, {:error, reason} otherwise.

See request/5 for more detailed information.

Link to this function delete!(url, headers \\ [], options \\ []) View Source

Issues a DELETE request to the given url, raising an exception in case of failure.

If the request does not fail, the response is returned.

See request!/5 for more detailed information.

Link to this function destroy(module, sid, options \\ []) View Source

Link to this function find(module, sid, options \\ []) View Source

Find a given resource in the Twilio API by its SID.

Examples

If the resource was found, find/2 will return a two-element tuple in this format, {:ok, item}.

ExTwilio.Api.find(ExTwilio.Call, "<sid here>")
{:ok, %Call{ ... }}

If the resource could not be loaded, find/2 will return a 3-element tuple in this format, {:error, message, code}. The code is the HTTP status code returned by the Twilio API, for example, 404.

ExTwilio.Api.find(ExTwilio.Call, "nonexistent sid")
{:error, "The requested resource couldn't be found...", 404}

request(atom, binary, body, headers, Keyword.t) ::
  {:ok, HTTPoison.Response.t | HTTPoison.AsyncResponse.t} |
  {:error, HTTPoison.Error.t}

Issues an HTTP request with the given method to the given url.

This function is usually used indirectly by get/3, post/4, put/4, etc

  • method - HTTP method as an atom (:get, :head, :post, :put, :delete, etc.)
  • url - target url as a binary string or char list
  • body - request body. See more below
  • headers - HTTP headers as an orddict (e.g., [{"Accept", "application/json"}])
  • options - Keyword list of options

Body:

  • binary, char list or an iolist
  • {:form, [{K, V}, ...]} - send a form url encoded
  • {:file, "/path/to/file"} - send a file
  • {:stream, enumerable} - lazily send a stream of binaries/charlists

Options:

  • :timeout - timeout to establish a connection, in milliseconds. Default is 8000
  • :recv_timeout - timeout used when receiving a connection. Default is 5000
  • :stream_to - a PID to stream the response to
  • :async - if given :once, will only stream one message at a time, requires call to stream_next
  • :proxy - a proxy to be used for the request; it can be a regular url or a {Host, Port} tuple
  • :proxy_auth - proxy authentication {User, Password} tuple
  • :ssl - SSL options supported by the ssl erlang module
  • :follow_redirect - a boolean that causes redirects to be followed
  • :max_redirect - an integer denoting the maximum number of redirects to follow
  • :params - an enumerable consisting of two-item tuples that will be appended to the url as query string parameters

Timeouts can be an integer or :infinity

This function returns {:ok, response} or {:ok, async_response} if the request is successful, {:error, reason} otherwise.
