The Shutterstock Ruby API Wrapper

A Ruby API wrapper for Shutterstock API's

gem "shutterstock-ruby"

Missing

Current version only wraps the Image and Video search, purchase and download API's. Feel free to send a pull request with more API's wrapped!

Usage

You need a valid client_id/secret combo to use the Gem, you can get it by signing up here

Raises Exception on missing credentials

Configuration

You can use an initializer for example if you're on Rails.

# initializers/shutterstock.rb
ShutterstockRuby.configure do |config|
  config.api_client = ENV['SHUTTERSTOCK_CLIENT']
  config.api_secret = ENV['SHUTTERSTOCK_SECRET']
end

If you require multiple clients, you can create an instance:

@client ||= ShutterstockRuby::Client.new(access_token: access_token)

You must supply either an api_client and an api_secret, or an access_token.
