Usage
-----

Using StaticMaps Signature is pretty straight forward:

.. code:: python

from staticmaps_signature import StaticMapURLSigner
staticmap_url_signer = StaticMapURLSigner(
public_key=YOUR_API_KEY, private_key=YOUR_SECRET)

signed = staticmap_url_signer.sign_url(URL_TO_SIGN)

This will return your URL appended with
``'&key=YOUR_API_KEY&signature=UNIQUE_SIGNATURE'``.

If you wish to use your Cliend ID instead then just instantiate
:class:`StaticMapURLSigner` like this:

.. code:: python

staticmap_url_signer = StaticMapURLSigner(
client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID, private_key=YOUR_SECRET)

In case your URL already contains your API Key or Cliend ID instantiate
:class:`StaticMapURLSigner` with your shared secret only:

.. code:: python

staticmap_url_signer = StaticMapURLSigner(private_key=YOUR_SECRET)

If you want just to append your API Key to the URL rather than signing it
just instantiate :class:`StaticMapURLSigner` with your key only:

.. code:: python

staticmap_url_signer = StaticMapURLSigner(public_key=YOUR_API_KEY)

That's all there is for it.
