pocketrecommendations 0.1.1

pocket-recommendations
Unofficial library to get a feed of one's Pocket recommendations
Usage
Get a public Pocket profile, like this one. Download its HTML using Python or anything else:
$ curl "https://getpocket.com/@honzajavorek" > getpocket-com-honzajavorek.html

In your Python program, have the HTML ready as a string:
>>> from pathlib import Path
>>> html_text = Path('getpocket-com-honzajavorek.html').read_text()

Now you can use this library to parse the HTML:
>>> import pocket_recommendations
>>> items = pocket_recommendations.parse(html_text)
>>> len(items)
50

Each item then looks like this:
>>> from pprint import pprint
>>> pprint(items[0])
{'pocket_comment': 'Šablona na váš úspěšný HackerNews post',
'pocket_recommended_at': None,
'pocket_url': 'https://getpocket.com/redirect?&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsaagarjha.com%2Fblog%2F2020%2F05%2F10%2Fwhy-we-at-famous-company-switched-to-hyped-technology%2F&h=eff6d8cac22c9b475463d037037b0efdcf44b762c9b0b7913de2104cab5fa67d',
'title': 'Why we at $FAMOUS_COMPANY Switched to $HYPED_TECHNOLOGY',
'url': 'https://saagarjha.com/blog/2020/05/10/why-we-at-famous-company-switched-to-hyped-technology/'}

Even though Pocket uses HTTP links for the redirects, the library forces HTTPS.
Date of Recommendation
You can specify the date when the HTML has been downloaded to get the relative dates when the recommendations have been posted:
>>> from datetime import date
>>> items = pocket_recommendations.parse(html_text, today=date(2020, 6, 3))
>>> pprint(items[0])
{'pocket_comment': 'Šablona na váš úspěšný HackerNews post',
'pocket_recommended_at': datetime.date(2020, 6, 2),
'pocket_url': 'https://getpocket.com/redirect?&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsaagarjha.com%2Fblog%2F2020%2F05%2F10%2Fwhy-we-at-famous-company-switched-to-hyped-technology%2F&h=eff6d8cac22c9b475463d037037b0efdcf44b762c9b0b7913de2104cab5fa67d',
'title': 'Why we at $FAMOUS_COMPANY Switched to $HYPED_TECHNOLOGY',
'url': 'https://saagarjha.com/blog/2020/05/10/why-we-at-famous-company-switched-to-hyped-technology/'}

Missing Comment
If there is no comment, it is set to None:
>>> from datetime import date
>>> items = pocket_recommendations.parse(html_text)
>>> pprint(items[15])
{'pocket_comment': None,
'pocket_recommended_at': None,
'pocket_url': 'https://getpocket.com/redirect?&url=https%3A%2F%2Falmad.blog%2Fessays%2Fwhat-is-employment%2F&h=ef4216c9df41763fa900b12815a280bf790f50960468a45ebed5f3682156dc6a',
'title': "We Don't Know What an Employment Is",
'url': 'https://almad.blog/essays/what-is-employment/'}

Misinterpreted HTML Entities
If the title contains some misinterpreted HTML entities, the library takes care of it:
>>> from datetime import date
>>> items = pocket_recommendations.parse(html_text)
>>> pprint(items[15]) # title: We Don't Know What an Employment Is
