Unofficial Client for Piazza's Internal API


## Usage

```python
>>> from piazza_api import Piazza
>>> p = Piazza()
>>> p.user_login()
Email: ...
Password: ...

>>> user_profile = p.get_user_profile()

>>> eece210 = p.network("hl5qm84dl4t3x2")

>>> eece210.get_post(100)
...

>>> posts = eece210.iter_all_posts(limit=10)
>>> for post in posts:
... do_awesome_thing(post)

>>> users = eece210.get_users(["userid1", "userid2"])
>>> all_users = eece210.get_all_users()
```

Above are some examples to get started; more in the documentation (which is coming soon;
but the code is all Sphinx-style documented and is fairly readable).

You can also use the "internal" PiazzaRPC class which maps more directly
to Piazza's API itself but is not as nice and as intuitive to use as the
`Piazza` class abstraction.

```python
>>> from piazza_api.rpc import PiazzaRPC
>>> p = PiazzaRPC("hl5qm84dl4t3x2")
>>> p.user_login()
Email: ...
Password: ...
>>> p.content_get(181)
...
>>> p.add_students(["student@example.com", "anotherStudent@example.com"])
...
```
