Buergel

This gem allows you to call ConCheck basic and ConCheck move requests on the Buergel Scoring API.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'buergel'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install buergel

Configuration

Assuming you are using Rails: Add an initializer config/initializers/buergel.rb:

Buergel.customer_no = 'YOUR KNDNR'
Buergel.user_id = 'YOUR USERID'
Buergel.password = 'YOUR PASSWORD'
Buergel.test_mode = true #to enable test mode
Buergel.search_type = '00' or '01'

Alternatively, add the following ENV variables:

BUERGEL_CUSTOMER_NO
BUERGEL_USER_ID
BUERGEL_PASSWORD
BUERGEL_TEST_MODE

Usage

ConCheck basic

####Create a new Buergel::ConCheckBasic instance:

buergel = Buergel::ConCheckBasic.new

you may change the response language using:

buergel.set_lang('de', 'en', 'fr', 'es', 'it')

####Make a boni check:

response = buergel.request(first_name, last_name, street, street_no, zip, city, country_code, birthdate)

country_code can be alpha2, alpha3, iso-numeric

####As an result you get a Buergel::Response

response.score Float between 1.0 and 6.0
response.note A human readable reson for the score
response.first_name … the response also contains the corrected address and the 'ret_code' telling you wether the address was corrected or not

ConCheck move

ConCheck move differs from ConCheck basic by using additional external data sources to calculate the scoring value.

####Create a new Buergel::ConCheckMove instance:

buergel = Buergel::ConCheckBasic.new

you may change the response language using:

buergel.set_lang('de', 'en', 'fr', 'es', 'it')

####Make a boni check:

response = buergel.request(first_name, last_name, street, street_no, zip, city, country_code, birthdate)

country_code can be alpha2, alpha3, iso-numeric

####As an result you get a Buergel::Response

response.score Float between 1.0 and 6.0
response.note A human readable reson for the score
response.first_name … the response also contains the corrected address and the 'ret_code' telling you wether the address was corrected or not

Future

Right now the gem only implements ConCheckBasic and ConCheckMove. For the future, more Buergel products could be included.
