Installation

pip install yahoo_oauth_fantasy

Quickstart

Wether you use OAuth1 or OAuth2, only 2 parameters are required.

• *consumer*key_

• *consumer*secret_

You have two choices, you can either put those two into a file from_file. Only *json* and *yaml* files are supported

{
    "consumer_key": "my_very_long_and_weird_consumer_key",
    "consumer_secret": "my_not_that_long_consumer_secret"
}

or have them as a string variable from_string

cred_string = '{"consumer_key": "my_very_long_and_weird_consumer_key","consumer_secret": "my_not_that_long_consumer_secret"}'

Once you acquired your access_token, if you are using a file, it will save under the same name, and look like:

• OAuth1

If you are using a string, you can call get_new_data to get a string with the information shown above.

With that you should be good to go.

Normally, once your got all that, you can *use the same credentials FOREVER*, you just have to *REFRESH THEM*.

Examples

from yahoo_oauth import OAuth1
oauth = OAuth1(None, None, from_file='oauth1.json')
...

if not oauth.token_is_valid():
    oauth.refresh_access_token()

# Example
response = oauth.session.post(url, data=body)

from yahoo_oauth import OAuth2
oauth = OAuth2(None, None, from_file='oauth2.json')
...

if not oauth.token_is_valid():
    oauth.refresh_access_token()
# Example
response = oauth.session.get(url, params=payload)

from yahoo_oauth import OAuth2
cred_string = '{"consumer_key": "my_very_long_and_weird_consumer_key","consumer_secret": "my_not_that_long_consumer_secret"}'
oauth = OAuth2(None, None, from_string=cred_string)
...

if not oauth.token_is_valid():
    oauth.refresh_access_token()
new_cred_string = oauth.get_new_data()
# Example
response = oauth.session.get(url, params=payload)
