|

<hr />
|
|
<h2>Usage Example</h2>
|
|
<p>Request a <a href="http://getpocket.com/developer/apps/">Consumer Key on Pocket.</a></p>
|
|
<p>Include the PocketSharp namespace and it's associated models (you will need them later):</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
using PocketSharp;
|
|
using PocketSharp.Models;</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Initialize PocketClient with:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
PocketClient _client = new PocketClient("[YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY]", "[YOUR_ACCESS_CODE]");</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Do a simple request - e.g. a search for <code>CSS</code>:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
_client.Search("css").ForEach(
|
|
item => Console.WriteLine(item.ID + " | " + item.Title)
|
|
);</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Which will output:</p>
|
|

</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Create an instance</h2>
|
|
<p>Constructor:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
PocketClient(string consumerKey, string accessCode = null, Uri callbackUri = null)</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>consumerKey</code>: The API key
|
|
<br>
|
|
<code>accessCode</code>: Provide an access code if the user is already authenticated
|
|
<br>
|
|
<code>callbackUri</code>: The callback URL is called by Pocket after authentication
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Example:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
PocketClient _client = new PocketClient(
|
|
consumerKey: "123498237423498723498723",
|
|
callbackUri: new Uri("http://ceecore.com"),
|
|
accessCode: "097809-oi987-izi8-jk98-oiuu89"
|
|
);</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can change the <em>Access Code</em> after initialization:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
_client.AccessCode = "[YOU_ACCESS_CODE]";</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Before authentication</strong> you will need to provide the <code>callbackUri</code> for authentication requests.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<strong>After authentication</strong> you will need to provide the <code>accessCode</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Authentication</h2>
|
|
<p>In order to communicate with a Pocket User, you will need a consumer key (which is generated by <a href="http://getpocket.com/developer/apps/">creating a new application on Pocket</a>) and an <strong>Access Code</strong>.</p>
|
|
<p>The authentication is a 3-step process:</p>
|
|
<h4>1) Generate authentication URI</h4>
|
|
<p>Receive the <strong>request code</strong> and <strong>authentication URI</strong> from the library by calling <code>string GetRequestCode()</code>:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
string requestCode = _client.GetRequestCode();
|
|
// 0f453f2d-1605-8584-28fd-39af8e
|
|
Uri authenticationUri = _client.GenerateAuthenticationUri();
|
|
// https://getpocket.com/auth/authorize?request_token=0f453f2d-1605-8584-28fd-39af8e&redirect_uri=http%253a%252f%252fceecore.com</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>request code</em> is stored internally, but you can also provide it as param in <code>GenerateAuthenticationUri(string requestCode = null)</code>.</p>
|
|
<h4>2) Redirect to Pocket</h4>
|
|
<p>Next you need to redirect the user to the <code>authenticationUri</code>, which displays a prompt to grant permissions for the application (see image). After the user granted or denied, he/she is redirected to the <code>callbackUri</code>.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<img src="https://raw.github.com/ceee/PocketSharp/master/PocketSharp/authentication-screen.png" alt="authentication screen" /></p>
|
|
<h4>3) Get Access Code</h4>
|
|
<p>Call <code>string GetAccessCode(string requestCode = null)</code></p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
string accessCode = _client.GetAccessCode();
|
|
// fa8bfc16-69b3-4d22-7db7-84a58d</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Again, the received <em>access code</em> is stored internally.
|
|
Note that <code>GetAccessCode</code> can only be called with an existing <em>request code</em>. If you need to re-authenticate a user, start again with Step 1).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4>Important</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Be sure to permanently store the <em>Access Code</em> for your user.</strong>
|
|
<br>
|
|
Without it you would always have to redo the authentication process.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Retrieve</h2>
|
|
<p>Get list of all items:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
List<PocketItem> items = _client.Retrieve();
|
|
// equivalent to: _client.Retrieve(RetrieveFilter.All)</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Find items by a tag:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
List<PocketItem> items = _client.SearchByTag("tutorial");</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Find items by a search string:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
List<PocketItem> items = _client.Search("css");</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Find items by a filter:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
List<PocketItem> items = _client.Retrieve(RetrieveFilter.Favorite); // only favorites</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The RetrieveFilter Enum is specified as follows:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
enum RetrieveFilter { All, Unread, Archive, Favorite, Article, Video, Image }</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h4>Custom Parameters</h4>
|
|
<p>You can create a completely custom parameter list for retrieval with the POCO <code>RetrieveParameters</code>:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
```csharp
|
|
var parameters = new RetrieveParameters()
|
|
{
|
|
Count = 50,
|
|
Offset = 100,
|
|
Sort = SortEnum.oldest
|
|
...
|
|
};
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
List<pocketitem>
|
|
items = _client.Retrieve(parameters);
|
|
```
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Add</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Adds a new item to your pocket list.
|
|
Accepts four parameters, with <code>uri</code> being required.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
PocketItem Add(Uri uri, string[] tags = null, string title = null, string tweetID = null)</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Example:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>csharp
|
|
PocketItem newItem = _client.Add(
|
|
new Uri("http://www.neowin.net/news/full-build-2013-conference-sessions-listing-revealed"),
|
|
new string[] { "microsoft", "neowin", "build" }
|
|
);</code>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The title can be included for cases where an item does not have a title, which is typical for image or PDF URLs. If Pocket detects a title from the content of the page, this parameter will be ignored.</p>
|
|
<p>If you are adding Pocket support to a Twitter client, please send along a reference to the tweet status id (with the tweetID). This allows Pocket to show the original tweet alongside the article.</p>
|
|
<h2>Modify</h2>
|
|
<p>All Modify methods accept either the itemID (as int) or a <code>PocketItem</code> as parameter.</p>
|
|
<p>Archive the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.Archive(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Un-archive the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.Unarchive(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Favorites the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.Favorite(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Un-favorites the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.Unfavorite(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Deletes the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.Delete(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Modify tags</h4>
|
|
<p>Add tags to the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.AddTags(myPocketItem, new string[] { "css", "2013" });
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Remove tags from the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.RemoveTags(myPocketItem, new string[] { "css", "2013" });
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Remove all tags from the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.RemoveTags(myPocketItem);
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Replaces all existing tags with new ones for the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.ReplaceTags(myPocketItem, new string[] { "css", "2013" });
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Renames a tag for the specified item:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>bool isSuccess = _client.RenameTag(myPocketItem, "oldTagName", "newTagName");
|
|
</code></pre>
