Clockwork SMS API Ruby Gem

Install

Just add the following to your Gemfile:

gem 'clockworksms'

Documentation

Full documentation is at http://rubydoc.info/github/mediaburst/clockwork-ruby/master/frames. Alternatively, run yard doc and open doc/index.html.

Usage

For more information on the available optional parameters for the API (Clockwork::API), see here.

For more information on the available optional parameters for each SMS (Clockwork::SMS), see here. For more information on the response object returned from each SMS (Clockwork::SMS::Response), see here.

Send a single SMS message

require 'clockwork'
api = Clockwork::API.new( 'API_KEY_GOES_HERE' )
message = api.messages.build( :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message.' )
response = message.deliver

if response.success
    puts response.message_id
else
    puts response.error_code
    puts response.error_description
end

Alternative usage for sending an SMS message

require 'clockwork'
api = Clockwork::API.new( 'API_KEY_GOES_HERE' )

message = api.messages.build
message.to = '441234123456'
message.content = 'This is a test message.'
response = message.deliver

if response.success
    puts response.message_id
else
    puts response.error_code
    puts response.error_description
end

Send multiple SMS messages (with an optional client ID)

You should not use the Clockwork::Message#deliver method for each message, but instead use the Clockwork::API#deliver method to send multiple messages in the same API request. This will decrease load on the API and ensure your requests are processed significantly faster.

messages = [
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message.', :client_id => '1' },
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message 2.', :client_id => '2' },
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message 3.', :client_id => '3' },
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message 4.', :client_id => '4' },
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message 5.', :client_id => '5' },
    { :to => '441234123456', :content => 'This is a test message 6.', :client_id => '6' }
]

require 'clockwork'
api = Clockwork::API.new( 'API_KEY_GOES_HERE' )
messages.each do |m|
    api.messages.build(m)
end

responses = api.deliver_messages
responses.each do |response|
    puts response.client_id
    if response.success
        puts response.message_id
    else
        puts response.error_code
        puts response.error_description
    end
end

require 'clockwork'
api = Clockwork::API.new( 'API_KEY_GOES_HERE' )
