<p>This project is work in progress.
PocketSharp will be released as a NuGet package when ready.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong>PocketSharp</strong> is a C#.NET class library, that integrates the <a href="http://getpocket.com/developer">Pocket API v3</a> and consists of 4 parts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Authentication</li>
<li>Retrieve</li>
<li>Modify</li>
<li>Add</li>
</ul><hr><p><em>If you don't know <a href="http://getpocket.com">Pocket</a>, be sure to check it out. It's an awesome service that lets you save articles, videos, ... in the cloud and access it from all your devices.</em></p>
<hr><h2>
<a name="usage-example" class="anchor" href="#usage-example"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>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>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">using</span> <span class="nn">PocketSharp</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="k">using</span> <span class="nn">PocketSharp.Models</span><span class="p">;</span>
</pre></div>
<p>Initialize PocketClient with:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">PocketClient</span> <span class="n">_client</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="k">new</span> <span class="n">PocketClient</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"[YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY]"</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">"[YOUR_ACCESS_CODE]"</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
<p>Do a simple request - e.g. a search for <code>CSS</code>:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">_client</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">Search</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"css"</span><span class="p">).</span><span class="n">ForEach</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">item</span> <span class="p">=&gt;</span> <span class="n">Console</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">WriteLine</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">item</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">ID</span> <span class="p">+</span> <span class="s">" | "</span> <span class="p">+</span> <span class="n">item</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">Title</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
<p>Which will output:</p>

<a name="create-an-instance" class="anchor" href="#create-an-instance"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>Create an instance</h2>
<p>Constructor:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">PocketClient</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="kt">string</span> <span class="n">consumerKey</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="kt">string</span> <span class="n">accessCode</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="k">null</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">Uri</span> <span class="n">callbackUri</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="k">null</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
<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>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">PocketClient</span> <span class="n">_client</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="k">new</span> <span class="n">PocketClient</span><span class="p">(</span>
<span class="n">consumerKey</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">"123498237423498723498723"</span><span class="p">,</span>
<span class="n">callbackUri</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="k">new</span> <span class="n">Uri</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"http://ceecore.com"</span><span class="p">),</span>
<span class="n">accessCode</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s">"097809-oi987-izi8-jk98-oiuu89"</span>
<span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
<p>You can change the <em>Access Code</em> after initialization:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">_client</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">AccessCode</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="s">"[YOU_ACCESS_CODE]"</span><span class="p">;</span>
</pre></div>
<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>
<a name="authentication" class="anchor" href="#authentication"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>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>
<a name="1-generate-authentication-uri" class="anchor" href="#1-generate-authentication-uri"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>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>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kt">string</span> <span class="n">requestCode</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="n">_client</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">GetRequestCode</span><span class="p">();</span>
<span class="c1">// 0f453f2d-1605-8584-28fd-39af8e</span>
<span class="n">Uri</span> <span class="n">authenticationUri</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="n">_client</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">GenerateAuthenticationUri</span><span class="p">();</span>
<span class="c1">// https://getpocket.com/auth/authorize?request_token=0f453f2d-1605-8584-28fd-39af8e&amp;redirect_uri=http%253a%252f%252fceecore.com</span>
</pre></div>
<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>
<a name="2-redirect-to-pocket" class="anchor" href="#2-redirect-to-pocket"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>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><a href="https://raw.github.com/ceee/PocketSharp/master/PocketSharp/authentication-screen.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://raw.github.com/ceee/PocketSharp/master/PocketSharp/authentication-screen.png" alt="authentication screen" style="max-width:100%;"></a></p>
<h4>
<a name="3-get-access-code" class="anchor" href="#3-get-access-code"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>3) Get Access Code</h4>
<p>Call <code>string GetAccessCode(string requestCode = null)</code></p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kt">string</span> <span class="n">accessCode</span> <span class="p">=</span> <span class="n">_client</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="n">GetAccessCode</span><span class="p">();</span>
<span class="c1">// fa8bfc16-69b3-4d22-7db7-84a58d</span>
</pre></div>
<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>
<a name="important" class="anchor" href="#important"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>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>
<a name="retrieve" class="anchor" href="#retrieve"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>Retrieve</h2>
<p>Get list of all items:</p>

<h4>

</pre></div>
<h2>
<a name="add" class="anchor" href="#add"><span class="octicon octicon-link"></span></a>Add</h2>
<p>Adds a new item to your pocket list.
Accepts four parameters, with <code>uri</code> being required.</p>

<span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
<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>
