webmention-tools

Some simple tools in python to deal with webmentions.
Note, that this package was formerly known as
webmentiontools, but had
to be renamed due to
PEP-541. (Namely, not
classified as abandoned project, because the author was reachable).
Currently:

webmentiontools.send implements WebmentionSend that sends
webmentions.
webmentiontools.urlinfo implements UrlInfo() that will rerurn usefull
information about a web page, like title, the existance of an
“in-reply-to” link, the author name, the author image, etc.
webmentiontoold.webmentionio provides a class to query webmention.io

There is also the corresponting command line tool, webmention-tools
(which is also a simple example on how to use the library.
Check bin/demo.py on how to use the library to query
webmention.io and present information for all URLs that mentioned
