PasswordPing Ruby Client Library

TOC

This README covers the following topics:

Installation

The compiled library is available as a Ruby Gem:

gem install passwordping

Source

You can build the project from the source in this repository.

API Overview

Here's the API in a nutshell.

require 'passwordping'

# Create a new PasswordPing instance - this is our primary interface for making API calls
passwordping = PasswordPing::PasswordPing.new(apiKey: YOUR_API_KEY, secret: YOUR_API_SECRET)

# Check whether a password has been compromised
if passwordping.check_password("password-to-test")
    puts("Password is compromised")
else
    puts("Password is not compromised")
end

# Check whether a specific set of credentials are compromised
if passwordping.check_credentials("[email protected]", "password-to-test")
    puts("Credentials are compromised")
else
    puts("Credentials are not compromised")
end

# get all exposures for a given user
exposures = passwordping.get_exposures_for_user("[email protected]")
puts(exposures.count.to_s + " exposures found for [email protected]")

# now get the full details for the first exposure found
details = passwordping.get_exposure_details(exposures.exposures[0])
puts("First exposure for [email protected] was " + details.title)

More information in reference format can be found below.

The PasswordPing constructor

The standard constructor takes the API key and secret you were issued on PasswordPing signup.

passwordping = PasswordPing::PasswordPing.new(apiKey: YOUR_API_KEY, secret: YOUR_API_SECRET)

If you were instructed to use an alternate API endpoint, you may call the overloaded constructor and pass the base URL you were provided.

passwordping = PasswordPing::PasswordPing.new(apiKey: YOUR_API_KEY, secret: YOUR_API_SECRET, baseURL: "https://api-alt.passwordping.com/v1")

Platform Requirements

OSX and Linux platforms are fully supported. Windows is not, since FFI support is needed for some of the cryptography libraries, which is problematic on Windows.

Ruby 2.0.0 and up are supported.

RubyDocs

The RubyDocs contain more complete references for the API functions.
