Ruby And The YIFY Torrents API

Install the Yify gem

gem install yify

Require Yify in your project:

require 'yify'

This gem translates the raw JSON coming back from Yify into full fledged Ruby objects. This means you can access properties like this:

client = Yify::Client.new
=> #<Yify::Client:0x007f9b14321ef8>

movie = client.movie(353).result
=> #<Yify::Models::Movie:0x007f9b14360130>

movie.movie_title
=> "We Were Soldiers (2002)"

A Yify::Response will always return an untouched hash as well, like this:

movie = client.movie(353).response
=> {"MovieID"=>"353",
    "MovieUrl"=>"http://yts.re/movie/We_Were_Soldiers_2002",
    "DateUploaded"=>"2011-08-31 01:04:02",
    ... }

movie["MovieID"]
=> "353"
