For the latest information on this project, take a look at:

• This project's source code repo
• The Eventbrite API documentation

##Usage Examples##

###Installation via rubygems ###

gem install eventbrite-client

###Loading the Eventbrite API Client library code###

require 'eventbrite-client'

###Initializing the client### Your API / Application key is required to initialize the client - http://eventbrite.com/api/key

Set your user_key if you want to access private data - http://eventbrite.com/userkeyapi

eb_auth_tokens = { app_key:  'YOUR_APP_KEY',
                   user_key: 'YOUR_USER_KEY'}
eb_client = EventbriteClient.new(eb_auth_tokens)

###Initializing the client using an OAuth2.0 access_token### You can also initialize our API client using an OAuth2.0 access_token, like this:

eb_client = EventbriteClient.new({access_token: 'YOUR_USER_ACCESS_TOKEN'})

###Calling API methods### See Eventbrite's API method documentation for more information about the list of available client methods.

Here is an example using the API's user_list_events method:

response = eb_client.user_list_events()

The event_get API call should look like this:

response = eb_client.event_get({id: 1848891083})

Widgets

Rendering an event in html as a ticketWidget is easy:

response = eb_client.event_get({id: 1848891083})
widget_html = EventbriteWidgets::ticketWidget(response['event'])
