An unofficial Gumroad API client for Elixir applications.

⚠️ Pay heed! This package does not yet implement the complete Gumroad API. See the "Incomplete implementation" section below for more details.

Full documentation available on HexDocs.

iex> {:ok, products} = Gumroad.get_products()
iex> products
[%Gumroad.Product{id: "...", name: "..."}, %Gumroad.Product{id: "...", name: "..."}]

iex> {:ok, subscribers} = Gumroad.get_subscribers(List.first(products).id)
iex> subscribers
[%Gumroad.Subscriber{id: "...", status: "alive"}]

Add gumroad_elixir to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:gumroad_elixir, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Then, configure your Gumroad access token:

# config.exs
config :gumroad_elixir, :access_token, "your-gumroad-access-token"

Configuration properties on the :gumroad_elixir application are:

• :access_token (required) - The access token used to authenticate to the Gumroad API. (For details on how to create an access token, see Gumroad docs).

• :client (defaults to Gumroad.Client.Live) - The client implementation to use when handling API operations. Used for switching between a mock client and one that makes requests against the live Gumroad API. More details on the Gumroad.Client docs.

Error messages sent by Gumroad's API in response to failed requests are propagated as-is to your application, with the from_gumroad property set to true:

iex> Gumroad.get_sale("not-a-real-sale")
{:error, %Gumroad.Error{from_gumroad: true, reason: "The sale was not found."}}

Errors caused by other reasons (like network timeouts) have the from_gumroad property set to false:

# Disconnect wi-fi, and...
iex> Gumroad.Client.get_sale("not-a-real-sale")
{:error, %Gumroad.Error{from_gumroad: false, reason: :timeout}}

An access token is included as a parameter on each request made to the Gumroad API.

To create an access token, see Gumroad's docs.

Gumroad doesn't currently offer a native solution for local development or testing. To make up for this, this package includes local dev and testing mocks which ensure that you don't have to make calls to the live Gumroad API from non-prod environments.

To use mock responses, set :gumroad_elixir :client to Gumroad.Client.Mock (more details on the Gumroad.Client docs).

Now when you perform an action that would create a request against the Gumroad API, you'll get a mocked response instead:

iex> Gumroad.get_resource_subscriptions("abc")
{:ok,
 %Gumroad.ResourceSubscription{
   id: "test-resource-subscription-id",
   post_url: "http://example.org",
   resource_name: "abc"
 }}

This package does not implement the entire Gumroad API. I extracted it out of a project (Mailgrip) where I only implemented support for the endpoints I needed.

An overall framework has been created though, with the intention of making addition of new endpoints straightforward.

If you'd like support for a new endpoint, I'd love for you to open a PR (my preference!) or otherwise open an issue and I can look into adding support.

The following table tracks all endpoints currently available on the Gumroad API and whether they've been implemented in this package.

Besides supporting all API endpoints, there are a few other areas I'd like to tackle before calling this client "production ready":

• Retry mechanism in case an API request fails.
• Telemetry.
• Consider moving off of HTTPoison dependency and onto native httpc.
