Crate tumblr_api

Expand description

A rust implementation of the Tumblr API.

This is still very much in beta! see Major Planned/Unimplemented Features

§Examples

§Creating a simple post with the client

 use tumblr_api::{npf, client::Client, auth::Credentials};
 let client = Client::new(Credentials::new(
     "your consumer key",
     "your consumer secret",
 ));
 client
     .create_post(
         "blog-name",
         vec![npf::ContentBlockText::builder("hello world").build()],
     )
     .send()
     .await?;

§Creating a more complex post

use tumblr_api::client::CreatePostState;
// load the image that we'll be attaching to the post.
let my_image = std::fs::read("path/to/my_image.jpg")?;
// (currently, you need to manually create the reqwest::Body to pass in. that'll probably
//  change in a future version.)
let my_image = reqwest::Body::from(my_image);
client
    .create_post(
        "blog-name",
        vec![
            npf::ContentBlockText::builder("hello world").build(),
            npf::ContentBlockImage::builder(vec![npf::MediaObject::builder(
                npf::MediaObjectContent::Identifier("my-image-identifier".into()),
            )
            .build()])
            .build(),
            npf::ContentBlockText::builder("some bold text in a heading")
                .subtype(npf::TextSubtype::Heading1)
                .formatting(vec![npf::InlineFormat {
                    start: 5,
                    end: 9,
                    format: npf::InlineFormatType::Bold,
                }])
                .build(),
        ],
    )
    .add_attachment(my_image, "image/jpeg", "my-image-identifier")
    // add tags to your post
    // (this is currently a string since that's what the underlying api takes.
    //  Being able to pass a Vec<String> instead is a planned feature but hasn't been
    //  implemented quite yet.)
    .tags("tag_1,tag_2,tag_3")
    // add the post to your queue instead of immediately posting it
    .initial_state(CreatePostState::Queue)
    .send()
    .await?;

§Modules & Feature Flags

This library is split into multiple modules - client, api, npf, and auth - and each has a feature flag of the same name that controls whether it’s enabled. They’ll all be enabled by default, but if you only need certain features (e.g. just npf parsing) you can enable just those instead.

§Major Planned/Unimplemented Features

  • implement remaining api endpoints (currently it’s just post creation plus a couple others)

Modules§

  • request/result types for using the api directly.
  • tumblr api authorization
  • client (TODO: one-line description here)
  • An implementation of Tumblr’s Neue Post Format.
