Instapaper is a tool for saving web pages to read later, e.g. offline on a mobile device. PyInstapaper is a Python wrapper for the full Instapaper API.

To use it, in addition to your Instapaper account username and password, you’ll need to request API credentials from Instapaper.

Usage

from pyinstapaper.instapaper import Instapaper, Folder

INSTAPAPER_KEY = 'MY_INSTAPAPER_API_KEY'
INSTAPAPER_SECRET = 'MY_INSTAPAPER_API_SECRET'
INSTAPAPER_LOGIN = '[e-mail]'
INSTAPAPER_PASSWORD = 'p@ssw0rd'

instapaper = Instapaper(INSTAPAPER_KEY, INSTAPAPER_SECRET)
instapaper.login(INSTAPAPER_LOGIN, INSTAPAPER_PASSWORD)

# Get the 10 latest instapaper bookmarks for the given account and do
# something with the article text
bookmarks = instapaper.get_bookmarks('starred')
for bookmark in enumerate(bookmarks):
    do_something(bookmark.get_text())
    bookmark.archive()

# Create a new folder
folder = Folder(instapaper, title='cool stuff')
result = folder.add()
