8chan/vichan Python Library
The Bibliotheca Anonoma’s complete Python Wrapper for the 8chan API. Uses requests, respects if-modified-since headers on updating threads. Caches thread objects. Fun stuff.
An absolute must if you want to interface with or scrape from 8chan or other vichan-based imageboards/textboards, using a Python script.
You can install this library straight from PyPi with:
pip install py8chan

import py8chan
board = py8chan.Board('v')
thread = board.get_thread(423491034)

# supports displaying extra files in one post as well!
for file in thread.file_objects():
print(file.file_url)
# In a while...
print("I fetched", thread.update(), "new replies.")Documentation
This library mostly extends the classes of BASC-py4chan, but has some slight but major differences. See the py8chan documentation for more info.
