Start by installing the Ruby gem, and creating a geotrigger:

$ gem install geoloqi

require "geoloqi"

geoloqi_session = Geoloqi::Session.new(
  :access_token => "YOUR APPLICATION ACCESS TOKEN"
)

result = geoloqi_session.post("trigger/create", {
  :key        => "powells_books",
  :type       => "message",
  :latitude   => 45.523334,
  :longitude  => -122.681612,
  :radius     => 150,
  :text       => "Welcome to Powell's Books!",
  :place_name => "Powell's Books"
})

# Returns this hash:

{
  :trigger_id    => "2sSW",
  :place_id      => "2Urq",
  :key           => "powells_books",
  :type          => "message",
  :trigger_on    => "enter",
  :trigger_after => 0,
  :one_time      => 0,
  :text          => "Welcome to Powell's Books!",
  :extra         => {},
  :place         => {
    :place_id     => "2Urq",
    :name         => "Powell's Books",
    :latitude     => 45.523334,
    :longitude    => -122.681612,
    :radius       => 150,
    :display_name => "Powell's Books",
    :active       => 1,
    :extra        => {},
