Usage

require "sink"

sink = Sink::Client.new(
  user_token: "My User Token", # defaults to ENV["SINK_CUSTOM_API_KEY_ENV"]
  environment: "sandbox", # defaults to "production"
  username: "Robert",
  some_number_arg_required_no_default: 0,
  some_number_arg_required_no_default_no_env: 0,
  required_arg_no_env: "<example>"
)

card = sink.cards.create(
  type: "SINGLE_USE",
  exp_month: "08",
  not_: "TEST",
  shipping_address: {
    "address1" => "180 Varick St",
    "city" => "New York",
    "country" => "USA",
    "first_name" => "Jason",
    "last_name" => "Mimosa",
    "state" => "NY",
    "postal_code" => "H0H0H0"
  }
)

puts(card.token)

Errors

When the library is unable to connect to the API, or if the API returns a non-success status code (i.e., 4xx or 5xx response), a subclass of Sink::HTTP::Error will be thrown:

begin
  sink.cards.create(type: "an_incorrect_type")
rescue Sink::HTTP::Error => e
  puts(e.code) # 400
end

Error codes are as followed:

Cause	Error Type
HTTP 400	BadRequestError
HTTP 401	AuthenticationError
HTTP 403	PermissionDeniedError
HTTP 404	NotFoundError
HTTP 409	ConflictError
HTTP 422	UnprocessableEntityError
HTTP 429	RateLimitError
HTTP >=500	InternalServerError
Other HTTP error	APIStatusError
Timeout	APITimeoutError
Network error	APIConnectionError

Retries

Certain errors will be automatically retried 1 times by default, with a short exponential backoff. Connection errors (for example, due to a network connectivity problem), 408 Request Timeout, 409 Conflict, 429 Rate Limit, >=500 Internal errors, and timeouts will all be retried by default.

You can use the max_retries option to configure or disable this:

# Configure the default for all requests:
sink = Sink::Client.new(
  max_retries: 0, # default is 1
  username: "Robert",
  some_number_arg_required_no_default: 0,
  some_number_arg_required_no_default_no_env: 0,
  required_arg_no_env: "<example>"
)

# Or, configure per-request:
sink.cards.provision_foo("my card token", digital_wallet: "GOOGLE_PAY", max_retries: 5)

Timeouts

By default, requests will time out after 60 seconds. Timeouts are applied separately to the initial connection and the overall request time, so in some cases a request could wait 2*timeout seconds before it fails.

You can use the timeout option to configure or disable this:

# Configure the default for all requests:
sink = Sink::Client.new(
  timeout: nil, # default is 60
  username: "Robert",
  some_number_arg_required_no_default: 0,
  some_number_arg_required_no_default_no_env: 0,
  required_arg_no_env: "<example>"
)

# Or, configure per-request:
sink.cards.create(type: "DIGITAL", timeout: 5)
