Logging in Logging is very basic, to log in, and do everything that requires being logged in, one simply needs to use the code below
import psaw
user = PSAWConnect(username, password) #Put your username and password here
Commenting
There are several types of comments in scratch, however, currently in this package, only 1 type is supported (however the others will be added soon).
- Profile Comments
Profile Comments Profile comments require the user to be logged in, and run using the code:
user.profilecomment("message", "user") #Put message in "message" and username where user is.
Following Following and unfollowing and both very simple commands in PSAW. All you need to do is type
user.follow("person") #Put the username you want to follow in "person"
user.unfollow("person") #Put the username you want to unfollow in "person"
Loving and Faving projects
Loving and faving projects is a common task in scratch, and luckily, is included in PSAW! The code to love and fave, and unlove and unfave is here:
user.love(project_id) #love a project, put the project id in the parameter user.unlove(project_id) #unlove a project,put the project id in the parameter user.fave(project_id) #Favorite a project, put the project id in the parameter user.unfave(project_id) #Unfavorite a project, put the project id in the parameter
Getting User Data There are several current features for getting user data, with more coming in the next update!
- get followers
- get faves
- print messages
get followers
The get followers command is simply client.get_followers("username"), it returns a list with all of the user's followers.
get faves
The get faves command is simply client.get_user_faves("username"). It returns a dict with the title of a project with the id of the project. Such as {"test: "0000"}
print messages
The printmessages command has several parameters. The command is client.print_messages(all, limit, filter, user) the all parameter, a boolean, is whether you want or don't want all of the messages, it defaults to True, and you get all messages. The limit param is the limit of messages you want. It is an int, and defaults to 50. If all is set to True, then limit is ignored. Filter is the type of message that you want. You can mainly ignore it however.
