Random User Content (ryc)

Generates random user content in your applications. Great for prototyping!

Huh?

Currently ryc can puts a comment, author or URL from a random youtube video. Each time its called the content will be different. More services and content types might be available in the future.

Buy It

gem install ryc

Do It

require 'ryc'
Ryc::Generate.comment

Currently available methods:

Generate.comment
Generate.username
Generate.url

Upgrade It

• Add more platforms as content sources (twitter, facebook, ...)
• Add a method that outputs a hash of all content types from the same source page instead of picking a random source for each type.
• Remove dependency on randomyoutubecomment.com by generating a random youtube id from within the gem itself.
• Optional arguments:
  • length(n1, n2) to select only content with a total character count between n1 and n2.
  • (rating(pg|pg13|r|nc17) to choose the level of profanity that best suites your needs. Pass nc17 to puts raw unfiltered content.

Fix It

Gladly accepted in the form of pull requests :)
