##Apppy -- App.net Python library

An endpoint-complete app.net library.

##To use

You can use an already-existing access token, or use your client id / secret to get one.

from apppy import *

api = apppy(access_token="...", app_access_token="...")

r=api.getUser("me")
assert r.json()['data']['username'] == username

It was tested with requests 1.1.0, but other versions should also work. Each endpoint call generates the appropriate URL, moves known API parameters to the appropriate location, then calls the corresponding requests call. It returns the request response.

It automatically handles rate limit requests by sleeping and retrying. If you don't want that, and know what you're doing, the following code:

api.gimme_429 = True

will let you catch 429 (rate limit) errors.

Apppy.py is machine generated. It uses @Duerig's endpoints.json library to generate all the endpoints. The code that generates the endpoints is not part of this distribution, so while I will work hard to fix any problems, I won't accept pull requests against apppy.py (but I will use them to correct the source files that generate apppy.py). But please submit issues if you have them.
