Creating a Contact Form & Mailer

Create a working contact form in your application that will allow a user to send you an email. At a minimum should have a sender email, subject, and body as part of the form. It should have validations that make sure that required fields are submitted & email address is properly formatted. The messages should not be ultimately stored in the database, you can choose how to implement that (Non-active record model vs destroying entries after create)/

Instructions

Create a message model
Create a contact us controller with new & create actions & associated views
Create a mailer & associated views (use layout if you have one)
Hook the mailer up to the create action in your contact us controller

Savvi Membership API for Wholesale Partners

This guide covers the inner working of Savvi's RESTful API. It assumes a basic understanding of the principles of REST.

The REST API is designed to give developers a convenient way to access data contained within Savvi. As Savvi continues to grow, the API will continue to be developed.

Making an API Call

Savvi provides a staging and production URL for creating users.

Staging URL: http://www.savvi-staging.com/api/v1/

Savvi User & Payment Integration API for Call Centers

This guide covers the inner working of Braintree's Payment API & Savvi's RESTful API. It assumes a basic understanding of the principles of REST.

1.) Create an customer with a credit card & billing address with Braintree

2.) Post the user's information to Savvi including the newly created Braintree token via the "Creating Call Center Members via API" method.

The Plan

Today we use computers to mask messages every day. When you connect to a website that uses "https" in the address, it is running a special encoding on your transmissions that makes it very difficult for anyone to listen in between you and the server.

About Ruby
