Import the module and set up an API client user agent:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
require 'arvados'
arv = Arvados.new(apiVersion: 'v1')
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
The SDK retrieves the list of API methods from the server at run time. Therefore, the set of available methods is determined by the server version rather than the SDK version.
Create an object:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
new_link = arv.link.create(link: {link_class: 'test', name: 'test'})
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
h2. delete
Delete an object:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
arv.link.delete(uuid: new_link[:uuid])
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
h2. get
Retrieve an object by ID:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
some_user = arv.user.get(uuid: current_user_uuid)
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
h2. list
Get a list of objects:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
repos = arv.repository.list
first_repo = repos[:items][0]
puts "UUID of first repo returned is #{first_repo[:uuid]}"</code>
+{% endcodeblock %}
+
UUID of first repo returned is qr1hi-s0uqq-b1bnybpx3u5temz
-</pre>
h2. update
Update an object:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
updated_link = arv.link.update(uuid: new_link[:uuid],
link: {properties: {foo: 'bar'}})
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
h2. Get current user
Get the User object for the current user:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
current_user = arv.user.current
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
Get the UUID of an object that was retrieved using the SDK:
-<pre>
+{% codeblock as ruby %}
current_user_uuid = current_user[:uuid]
-</pre>
+{% endcodeblock %}
