require 'obarc'

session = OBarc::Session.new(username: 'username', password: 'password')

profile = session.profile

{"profile":
  {"website": "website",
   "public_key": "b7d8f6ee04453e1babde87d12198ecd14be00aa998e85636767d8b00d2603e6d",

session.update_profile(email: '[email protected]')

{"success": true}

session.connected_peers

{"peers": [["5.37.3.8", 28467]], "num_peers": 1}

If you want to manually upload an image, this will return the image hash.

session.upload_image(image: 'iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACAAAAAgCAYAAABzenr0AAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAAlwSFlzAAALEwAACxMBAJqcGAAAAVlpVFh0WE1MOmNvbS5hZG9iZS54bXAAAAAAADx4OnhtcG1ldGEgeG1sbnM6eD0iYWRvYmU6bnM6bWV0YS8iIHg6eG1wdGs9IlhNUCBDb3JlIDUuNC4wIj4KICAgPHJkZjpSREYgeG1sbnM6cmRmPSJodHRwOi8vd3d3LnczLm9yZy8xOTk5LzAyLzIyLXJkZi1zeW50YXgtbnMjIj4KICAgICAgPHJkZjpEZXNjcmlwdGlvbiByZGY6YWJvdXQ9IiIKICAgICAgICAgICAgeG1sbnM6dGlmZj0iaHR0cDovL25zLmFkb2JlLmNvbS90aWZmLzEuMC8iPgogICAgICAgICA8dGlmZjpPcmllbnRhdGlvbj4xPC90aWZmOk9yaWVudGF0aW9uPgogICAgICA8L3JkZjpEZXNjcmlwdGlvbj4KICAgPC9yZGY6UkRGPgo8L3g6eG1wbWV0YT4KTMInWQAAC91JREFUWAktl3mQHOV5xn99zH3u7K1d7Uq7CEkIpNVZRhagQDjKCcaxSIJNIJTjI5XCuakKceXyHy5XnJSr')

{"image_hashes": ["a89810619833ef29d373c124ce05f362a313929e"], "success": true}

You can also add a new listing with image URLs in the hash. The client will upload them and save the image hashes to the contract.
