Usage

Configuring client

To get started configure the client with your publisher key:

Fauna.configure do |config|
  config.publisher_key = 'AQAASaskOlAAAQBJqyQLYAABe4PIuvsylBEAUrLuxtKJ8A'
end

Classes

The classes can be managed through the Fauna::Class wrapper class, this can be used to create, find, update and delete classes:

# Create henwen class
Fauna::Class.create("henwen")

# You can also add arbitrary data to classes on creation
Fauna::Class.create("henwen", "name" => "Hen Wen")

# Update henwen class data
Fauna::Class.update("henwen", "name" => "Henwen")

# Find all classes
classes = Fauna::Class.find("classes")

# Find henwen class
henwen = Fauna::Class.find("classes/henwen")

# Delete henwen class
henwen = Fauna::Class.delete("classes/henwen")

Instances

Instances of classes can be managed with the Fauna::Instance wrapper:

# Create an instance of henwen class
Fauna::Instance.create("henwen")

# Create an instance of henwen class with arbritary data
instance = Fauna::Instance.create("henwen", "used" => false)

# Save ref for use in future (ex. instances/20735848002617345)
ref = instance['resource']['ref']

# Update an instance using the ref
Fauna::Instance.update(ref, "used" => true)

# Delete an instance using the ref
Fauna::Instance.delete(ref)

Timeline Settings

Custom Timelines can be managed with the Fauna::TimelineSettings wrapper:

# Create a timeline named comments and set permission for actions
Fauna::TimelineSettings.create("comments", "read" => "everyone", "write" => "follows", "notify" => "followers")

# Update settings of a timeline
Fauna::TimelineSettings.update("timelines/comments", "read" => "everyone", "write" => "everyone", "notify" => "followers"))

# Delete a timeline using the ref
Fauna::TimelineSettings.delete("timelines/comments")

Timeline Events

Events are added to timelines with the Fauna::Event wrapper, a full example of use with other resources:

Fauna::TimelineSettings.create("comments", "read" => "everyone", "write" => "follows", "notify" => "followers")

Fauna::Class.create("post")
Fauna::Class.create("comment")

post = Fauna::Instance.create("post", "title" => "My first post", "content" => "Hello World")
post_ref = post["resource"]["ref"]

comment = Fauna::Instance.create("post", "body" => "Comment")
comment_ref = comment["resource"]["ref"]

# Add event to a timeline
Fauna::Event.create("#{post_ref}/timelines/comments", comment_ref)

# Retrieve all the events of the timeline
events = Fauna::Event.find("#{post_ref}/timelines/comments")

# Delete event from timeline
Fauna::Event.delete("#{post_ref}/timelines/comments", comment_ref)
