RSAW

RSAW is a really light API wrapper, created for this here website. I (/u/diogenesjunior) created it because Saidit didn't have a Python API wrapper, and I personally needed to use Saidit programatically.

Installation

Installing RSAW is easy, assuming you have pip3 installed:

pip3 install RSAW

Credentials

To get all of your needed API creds:

• Go to /prefs/apps
• Select "are you a developer? create an app..."
• Name it "RSAW Testing"
• Select "script"
• Leave a small description about your project
• Leave the about url empty
• Put a link to the logged in account's profile for the redirect uri
  

You can then start using the API wrapper. I suggest you at least learn some Python first. Here's a small rundown of how you'd use it:

• Create a file named "main.py"

• Copy and paste the following into main.py:

  from rsaw import saidit
  
  saidit = saidit(client_id='client_id',
                  client_secret='client_secret',
                  username='username',
                  password='password',
                  app='our_app',
                  token_file='/tmp/token')
  me = saidit.get('/api/v1/me')
  print(me)
  

• Replace 'client_id' with the personal use script

• Replace 'client_secret' with the secret

• Replace 'username' with your username

• Replace 'password' with your password

• Replace 'our_app' with a simple user agent
