How it works

Meetup.com. provides an api which a Meetup.com member can access via api.meetup.com..

This package implements a MeetupClient which uses a meetup member’s meetup api key.. The client can query the meetup api and get back dictionaries of “meetup data”. Note that member permissions on Meetup.com apply to the members api queries.

Models made to mimic hypothesized meetup.com database tables can take the client’s data and turn them into local database objects.

The developer can then use the models to post information onto their webpage.
