wckbapi Ruby gem
A code library for WorldCat knowledge base API created at Developer HouseThe developed gem, wckbapi, provides a wrapper around the knowledge base API, providing a handful of helper functions developed to simplify interaction with the service. At this point, the current functions exposed through the gem are:
- GetEntry
params -- :id, :entry_uid, :collection_uid
returns -- Result Object, Entry Object - SearchEntries
params -- :title, :startIndex, :itemsPerPage, :content
returns -- Result Object, Array[Entry Object] - SearchProviders, GetProviderInfo
params -- :title, :collection_uid
returns -- Result Object, Array[Providers Object] - SearchCollections, GetCollectionInfo
params -- :title, :institution_id, :collection_uid, :itemsPerPage, :startIndex
returns -- Result Object, Array[Collection Object]
These helper functions allow a developer to quickly create tools and utilities to quickly query and return information about an institution’s knowledge base information.
