rubygems.latest

stable Advanced

Newest gems on RubyGems.

GET /v1/rubygems/latest

What you get#

A list of Rubygems results in Onekey's unified shape, in data (an array). An empty array is a normal, successful answer and is charged like any other; a source that reports "nothing found" as an error returns a free 404 not_found instead.

What it costs#

Advanced · 5 credits for a fresh fetch, charged only when it succeeds.
Free when served from cache (0.2 credit for a cached response over 100 KB).
Free if the request is invalid (never charged) or the source fails or reports not found (refunded).

Parameters#

This endpoint takes no parameters.

Request#

Field mapping#

How this endpoint's source fields become Onekey's unified schema. Fields the source lacks come back as null.

Source path	Onekey field	Transform
`name`	`entity.name`	-
`version`	`package.version`	-
`info`	`entity.description`	-
`project_uri`	`entity.url`	`safeUrl`
`homepage_uri`	`package.homepageUrl`	`safeUrl`
`source_code_uri`	`package.repositoryUrl`	`safeUrl`
`documentation_uri`	`package.documentationUrl`	`safeUrl`
`downloads`	`entity.stats.downloads`	`toNumber`
`version_downloads`	`ext.versionDownloads`	`toNumber`
`licenses`	`ext.licenses`	-
`authors`	`author.displayName`	-

Caching and freshness#

Fresh for about 30 seconds. Repeat calls in that window are served from cache and are free.
Between 30 seconds and 5 minutes the cached copy is still served instantly and marked stale: true while Onekey refreshes it in the background.
If the source is down when a refresh is needed, the last copy can be served for up to 10 minutes more (marked stale).
A "not found" is remembered for 1 minute and is free.
The cache is shared across all customers, which is what keeps repeat calls cheap.

What can go wrong#

Status	Code	What to do
401	`unauthorized`	Check the `x-api-key` header.
402	`insufficient_credits`	Add credits; your balance must cover the price.
404	`not_found`	Unknown endpoint path.
422	`invalid_params`	Fix the parameters using the table above. Free.
429	`rate_limited`	Wait `Retry-After` seconds, then retry.
502	`upstream_error`	The source failed. Refunded; retry with backoff.

See Errors for the full list and retry guidance.

Status: stable (verified against the live source).
