Class reference¶

Essentials¶

Classes doing most of the work.

class pypump.PyPump(client, verifier_callback, store=None, callback='oob', verify_requests=True, retries=0, timeout=30)[source]¶

Main class to interface with PyPump.

This class keeps everything together and is responsible for making requests to the server on it’s own behalf and on the behalf of the other clients as well as handling the OAuth requests.

Parameters:

client – an instance of Client.
verifier_callback – If this is our first time registering the client, this function will be called with a single argument, the url one can post to for completing verification.
store – this is the pypump.Store instance to save any data persistantly.
callback – the URI that is used for redirecting a user after they authenticate this client… assuming this is happening over the web. If not, the callback is “oob”, or “out of band”.
verify_requests – If this is set to False PyPump won’t check SSL/TLS certificates.
retries – number of times to retry if a request fails.
timeout – how long to give on a timeout for an http request, in seconds.

class pypump.Client(webfinger, type, name=None, contacts=None, redirect=None, logo=None, key=None, secret=None, expirey=None)[source]¶

This represents a client/application which is using the Pump API.

Parameters:

webfinger – webfinger id of this user, ie “mary@example.org” This is probably your username @ the domain of the pump instance you’re using.
type – whether this is a “web” or “native” client. Unless you’re using pypump as part of a web service, you should choose “native”.
name – The name of this client, ie your application’s name. For example, if you were using PyPump to write CoolCommunicator, you would put “CoolCommunicator” here.
contacts – Who wrote this application? List of email addresses of those who authored this client.
redirect – a list of URIs as callbacks for the authorization server
logo – URI of your application’s logo.

Additionally, the following init args should only be supplied if you’ve already registered this client with the server. If not, these will be filled in during the self.register() step.

Parameters:

key – If This is the token (the client_id) we got back that identifies our client, assuming we’ve already registered our client.
secret – This is your secret token that authorizes you to connect to the pump instance (the client_secret).
expirey – When our token expires (espires_at)

Note that the above three are not the same as the oauth permissions verifying the user has access to post, this is related to permissions and identification of the client software to post. For the premission related to the access of the account, see PyPump.key and PyPump.secret.
