API Key Request - Ruby gem

Post by picandocodigo »

Hi, I built a Ruby gem for the GamesDB API a while ago with the old API. I'd like to update the Gem to work with the new API. It's a free software project, and I'd update it in a way that when a user needs to use the gem, they need to request the API Key themselves.

Is the old API still available somewhere else? Just to know if I need to keep the old code or just throw it away and maintain an updated version for the new API.

Thanks!

Legacy subdomain should still be active, the last two posts of the thread below have the general idea:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=86

ZerO generally issues keys within 48 hours of the post.
We're curious to see how new projects use TGDB API.
If you have a new public project, please provide a link to it so we can highlight cool new applications! 8-)

Thank you very much Leo_Pride. I've fixed the code to the new endpoint for the legacy API, but I'll update it to use the new API once I get an access key.
