The Daytona Ruby SDK provides a robust interface for programmatically interacting with Daytona Sandboxes.
Install the Daytona Ruby SDK using Bundler by adding it to your Gemfile:
gem 'daytona'
Then run:
bundle install
Or install it directly:
gem install daytona
Here's a simple example to help you get started with the Daytona Ruby SDK:
require 'daytona'
# Initialize the SDK (uses environment variables by default)
daytona = Daytona::Daytona.new
# Create a new sandbox
sandbox = daytona.create
# Execute a command
response = sandbox.process.exec(command: "echo 'Hello, World!'")
puts response.result
# Clean up
daytona.delete(sandbox)
The SDK can be configured using environment variables or by passing options to the constructor:
require 'daytona'
# Using environment variables (DAYTONA_API_KEY, DAYTONA_API_URL, DAYTONA_TARGET)
daytona = Daytona::Daytona.new
# Using explicit configuration
config = Daytona::Config.new(
api_key: 'your-api-key',
api_url: 'https://app.daytona.io/api',
target: 'us'
)
daytona = Daytona::Daytona.new(config)
The SDK supports the following environment variables:
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
DAYTONA_API_KEY | API key for authentication |
DAYTONA_API_URL | URL of the Daytona API (defaults to https://app.daytona.io/api) |
DAYTONA_TARGET | Target location for Sandboxes |
DAYTONA_JWT_TOKEN | JWT token for authentication (alternative to API key) |
DAYTONA_ORGANIZATION_ID | Organization ID (required when using JWT token) |
