Productive API client

Productive API client is a gem based on JsonApiClient. It provides resource classes for resources available in Productive API.

Installation

Include the gem in your Gemfile

gem 'productive'

Bundle the Gemfile

bundle install

Initialize

If you're using the gem in Rails project, run:

rails generate productive API_KEY ACCOUNT_ID

which will generate config/initializers/productive.rb initializer, setting up your API_KEY and ACCOUNT ID.

If you're using the gem in a standalone project, you need to configure the API_KEY and ACCOUNT_ID:

Productive.configure do |config|
  config.api_key = ENV.fetch('productive_api_key')
  config.account_id = ACCOUNT_ID
end

Usage

For every resource available in Productive API, there is a resource class available for use similar to an ActiveRecord class.

Some examples:

Productive::Project.all
Productive::Project.paginate(per_page: 50).page(5).find

Productive::Project.where(client_id: 1).all
Productive::Project.where(
  created_at: {
    lt_eq: '2025-04-30',
    gt_eq: '2025-03-31'
  }
).paginate(page: 1, per_page: 200).all

Customizing

This gem uses a custom JsonApiPaginator based on the one available in JsonApiClient. If you need a different paginator, you can pass it as a configuration option:

Productive.configure do |config|
  config.paginator = MyCustomPaginator
end

By default, this gem utilises the Productive API available at https://api.productive.io/api/v2/, but if you need to use a different endpoint, you can pass that as a configuration option:

Productive.configure do |config|
  config.base_url = 'http://api.productive.dev/api/v2/'
end
