# airtable

Rust wrapper for the Airtable API.  The official API's documentation can be

found [here](https://airtable.com/api). This is also where you can find your API

tokens. This is inspired by [Airrecord for Ruby](https://github.com/sirupsen/airrecord).

The wrapper is not complete, but has the basics and is easy to extend.

[Rustdocs](https://docs.rs/airtable/)

### Installation

Add `airtable = "*"` to your `Cargo.toml`.

### Example

```rust

extern crate dotenv;

extern crate serde;

use dotenv::dotenv;

use std::env;

use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};

// You don't need to use dotenv. I use it here because it makes it much easier to test without

// publishing my keys to the kingdom :-)

dotenv().ok();

// Define the schema in Airtable. You don't need to type out the full row schema.

// You can use the serde annotation of `default` if it's optional and rename columns,

// as I've done here to map from upper-case. You must define a string id identifier.

//

// In this case, I'm mapping words that I have highlighted on my kindle with the # of results

// on Google so I can choose which ones to learn first.

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Default)]

struct Word {

    #[serde(default, skip_serializing)]

    id: String,

    #[serde(rename = "Word")]

    word: String,

    #[serde(rename = "Google")]

    google: i64,

    #[serde(rename = "Next", default)]

    next: bool,

}

// We need to define two methods on the structure so that ids can be assigned to it.

//

// TODO: Convert this to be a `derive(Airtable)` and be automatically defined but panic if the

// `id` is not a member of the struct and is a String. Contributions welcome for this or

// another ergonomic solution.

impl airtable::Record for Word {

    fn set_id(&mut self, id: String) {

        self.id = id;

    }

    fn id(&self) -> &str {

        &self.id

    }

}

// Define the base object to operate on.

let base = airtable::new::(

    &env::var("AIRTABLE_KEY").unwrap(),

    &env::var("AIRTABLE_BASE_WORDS_KEY").unwrap(),

    "Words",

);

// Query on the base. This implements the Iterator Trait and will paginate when reaching a page

// boundary. If you remove the `take(200)`, it'll just paginate through everything.

let mut results: Vec<_> = base

    .query()

    .view("To Learn")

    .sort("Next", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)

    .sort("Google", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)

    .sort("Created", airtable::SortDirection::Descending)

    .formula("FIND(\"Harry Potter\", Source)")

    .into_iter()

    .take(200)

    .collect();

// Pop the first element by taking ownership of it and print it

let mut word = results.remove(0);

println!("{:?}", word);

// Toggle the flag and update the record.

word.next = !word.next;

base.update(&word);

// Create a new word!

let mut new_word = Word {

    word: "lurid".to_string(),

    google: 6870000,

    next: true,

    // Set id to nil and other attributes we may not care about or not know yet.

    .. Default::default()

};

println!("{:?}", base.create(&new_word));

```
