ExTwilio.Api (ExTwilio v0.8.2) 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.
