# rust-pocket
[Pocket API](http://getpocket.com/developer/docs/overview) bindings (http://getpocket.com), WIP
API is very easy, actually. The most complex code is for authorization.
You will need a `consumer_key` and an `access_token` in order to use the API.
A `consumer_key` can be obtained by creating an app at the [My Applications](http://getpocket.com/developer/apps/) page.
An `access_token` is obtained by walking through [OAuth authentication workflow](http://getpocket.com/developer/docs/authentication).
The OAuth workflow is implemented with a pair of methods in this implementation:
```rust
extern crate pocket;
use pocket::Pocket;
fn authenticate() {
let mut pocket = Pocket::new("YOUR-CONSUMER-KEY-HERE", None);
let url = pocket.get_auth_url().unwrap();
println!("Follow the link to authorize the app: {}", url);
// Here we should wait until user follows the URL and confirm app access
let username = pocket.authorize().unwrap;
}
```
So you 1) generate OAuth access request URL with `pocket.get_auth_url()`, 2) let user follow the URL
and confirm app access, 3) call `pocket.authorize()` and either get an error,
or username of user just authorized.
I recommend storing the access token after you get it, so you don't have to repeat this workflow again next time.
The access token can be obtained with `pocket.access_token()` method. Store it somewhere and use to construct
`Pocket` object:
```rust
let access_token = "YOUR-STORED-ACCESS-TOKEN";
let mut pocket = Pocket::new("YOUR-CONSUMER-KEY-HERE", Some(access_token));
```
Now you have two methods (for now) to get and add new URLs to your pocket.
To add an item, use `Pocket::add()` or `Pocket::push()` method:
```rust
// Quick add by URL only
let added_item = pocket.push("http://example.com").unwrap();
// Add with all meta-info provided (title, tags, tweet id)
let added_item = pocket.push("http://example.com", Some("Example title"), Some("example-tag"), Some("example_tweet_id")).unwrap();
```
To query your pocket, use `Pocket::filter()` method:
```rust
let items = {
let mut f = pocket.filter();
f.complete() // complete data
f.archived() // archived items only
f.videos() // videos only
f.offset(10) // items 10-20
f.count(10)
f.sort_by_title() // sorted by title
f.get(); // get items
};
// There are other methods, see `PocketGetRequest` struct for details
...
```
The API bindings will be improved with new methods and parameters. Keep tuned!
