Installation

Gutefrage API can be installed like every other python package: pip install gutefrage

Basic usage

In this example we are going to mark a question from gutefrage.net as liked. First we have to create a new client with username and password:

import gutefrage as gf

gfclient = gf.gutefrage("username", "password")

To interact with an specific question we need its id. To get the id we need its stripped_title. The stripped_title can be found in the last part of its url called like this:

The Url: https://www.gutefrage.net/frage/wie-berechnet-man-die-quadratwurzel-aus-625

stripped_title: wie-berechnet-man-die-quadratwurzel-aus-625

To get the questions id we can use .convert_to_id(string):

title = "wie-berechnet-man-die-quadratwurzel-aus-625"

id = gfclient.convert_to_id(title)
print(id)

What now is printed in the console is the question's id! For this question it's 57753709. Now we have the id we can get the question by id:

id = 57753709 
question = gf.question(id)

Now we've got the question, we can get lot of information about it:

information = question.info()

And we can finally give it a like!

question.like
