Usage

Create a client
A pytumblr.TumblrRestClient is the object you’ll make all of your calls to the Tumblr API through. Creating one is this easy:
client = pytumblr.TumblrRestClient(
'<consumer_key>',
'<consumer_secret>',
'<oauth_token>',
'<oauth_secret>',
)

await client.info() # Grabs the current user information
Two easy ways to get your credentials to are:

The built-in interactive_console.py tool (if you already have a consumer key & secret)
The Tumblr API console at https://api.tumblr.com/console

The default supported types are described below.

await client.edit_post(blogName, id=post_id, type="photo", data="/Users/johnb/mega/awesome.jpg")

Reblogging a Post
Reblogging a post just requires knowing the post id and the reblog key, which is supplied in the JSON of any post object.
await client.reblog(blogName, id=125356, reblog_key="reblog_key")

Deleting a post
Deleting just requires that you own the post and have the post id
await client.delete_post(blogName, 123456) # Deletes your post :(
A note on tags: When passing tags, as params, please pass them as a list (not a comma-separated string):
await client.create_text(blogName, tags=['hello', 'world'], ...)

Getting notes for a post
In order to get the notes for a post, you need to have the post id and the blog that it is on.
data = await client.notes(blogName, id='123456')
The results include a timestamp you can use to make future calls.
data = await client.notes(blogName, id='123456', before_timestamp=data["_links"]["next"]["query_params"]["before_timestamp"])

Tagged Methods
# get posts with a given tag
await client.tagged(tag, **params)

Using the interactive console
This client comes with a nice interactive console to run you through the OAuth process, grab your tokens (and store them for future use).
You’ll need pyyaml installed to run it, but then it’s just:
$ python interactive_console.py
and away you go! Tokens are stored in ~/.tumblr and are also shared by other Tumblr API clients like the Ruby client.

Running tests
The tests (and coverage reports) are run with nose, like this:
python setup.py test
