Prerequisite: Obtain Your Consumer Key & Access Token

In order to use PyPocket, you will need consumer_key and access_token for your Pocket. For the consumer_key, you can follow Step 1 of Pocket Authentication API Documentation to obtain your consumer_key.

For obtaining your access_token, you can either follow the pocket documentation (above link) to get your access_token, or use the Auth class available in this library for your convenience as below.

from pypocket.auth import Auth
auth = Auth(consumer_key="your_consumer_key")
# The following will automatically obtain a request_token and ask you to authorize it. 
auth.authorize_request_token_browser() 

The auth.authorize_request_token_browser() will open a webpage to getpocket.com website asking you to authorize the token. Once, you authorize it. Then you can get your access token by running the following:

access_token = auth.get_access_token()
