HLR Lookups SDK (Ruby)

Official HLR Lookup API SDK for Ruby by www.hlr-lookups.com. Obtain live mobile phone connectivity and portability data from network operators directly.

This SDK implements the REST API documented at https://www.hlr-lookups.com/en/api-docs and includes an HLR API (live connectivity), NT API (number types), as well as an MNP API (mobile number portability).

For SDKs in different programming languages, see https://www.hlr-lookups.com/en/api-docs#sdks

Requirements

• Ruby >= 2.0.0
• rest-client >= 2.1.0
• json >= 2.3.0

Installation with gem

gem install ruby_hlr_client

Usage Client

require 'ruby_hlr_client/client'

client = HlrLookupsSDK::Client.new(
    'YOUR-API-KEY',
    'YOUR-API-SECRET',
    '/var/log/hlr-lookups-api.log' # an optional log file location
)

Examples

Test Authentication (https://www.hlr-lookups.com/en/api-docs#get-auth-test)

Performs an authenticated request against the GET /auth-test endpoint. A status code of 200 indicates that you were able to authenticate using you API credentials.

response = client.post('/auth-test')
print "Status Code: " + response.code.to_s + "\n"
print "Response Body: " + response.body + "\n"

Submitting an HLR Lookup (HLR API Docs)

response = client.post('/hlr-lookup', msisdn: '+905536939460')

print "HLR Lookup Status Code: " + response.code.to_s + "\n"
print "HLR Lookup Response Body: " + response.body + "\n"

if response.code != 200
  # something went wrong
  print "Received non-OK status code from server."
end

# do something with the HLR data
data = JSON.parse(response.body)
