Yahoo_OAuth is a very easy to use OAuth library for Yahoo! APIs.
pip install yahoo_oauth
Only 2 parameters are required to get started
I recommend putting those two into a file. Only json and yaml files are supported
{
"consumer_key": "my_very_long_and_weird_consumer_key",
"consumer_secret": "my_not_that_long_consumer_secret"
}
Once you acquired your access_token, this file will look like :
{
"access_token": "DELvMgOYvwPQJS8eFW_2hRN5rJxz6dnHAOk2s.qB0iMIeRg5.ZpW3xZF0p8CABLjZ2gfNdE602dCN2wTHdGHHLtChF3ls9BUuZ1QDdqIVq.yWclfweleyZSq6dAzlPEHiskWmfItjHK5VERY_LONG_ACCESS_TOKEN_oyyD4cIKvdNJsJ9k779mAUqN02_5ugBeDfCLebqjL8uVuunObew0ERa2MxE6jywNY0TTCe9W0nqTd6n0lKoN4PSP1Dw_Ifwx6enGuhUUAhhpa7nNMyhNy_pe6PfDf7IJ5gbkdtw3mD1o2T218ZTV0owdrKDLSF9oZrNvZ75xDlqaaI5yeW_.L63zk11PjsWUd5K8LGhWSTgRbyhffCDBcqVwTYEqHwCyVqHX4z2kgHhGsc0ies6WMG33kSw5Cgun0fnPbdDuHBgQziXU.GMv4hIDoIDMSLGpzpcpkyx4GS1CC_RUQwKxLilR3MQy7X2gI3cJA4lhRPlXEOdhS5HIQiQTgMWO9nWt7.RR7XtXVg-",
"consumer_key": "dj0yJmk9eFJINERDYWMY_CONSUMER_KEYmRGTnpZbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD1iNQ--",
"consumer_secret": "08802b459ab48eeaMY_CONSUMER_SECRET_0af6a4b75789f7",
"guid": "AJHDHJMYGUID",
"refresh_token": "APIENFXij.bjFW1tEcr2THE_REFRESH_TOKEN_Xn.4.DOIYOR37",
"token_time": 1433553339.706037,
"token_type": "bearer"
}
With that you should be good to go.
Normally, once your got all that, you can use the same credentials FOREVER, you just have to REFRESH THEM.
from yahoo_oauth import OAuth2
oauth = OAuth2(None, None, from_file='oauth2.json')
...
if not oauth.token_is_valid():
oauth.refresh_access_token()
# Example
response = oauth.session.get(url, params=payload)
from yahoo_oauth import OAuth2
oauth = OAuth2('consumer_key', 'consumer_secret') guid = oauth.guid
* How to disable **Yahoo_OAuth Logger**
```python
import logging
oauth_logger = logging.getLogger('yahoo_oauth')
oauth_logger.disabled = True
Any kind of contribution is welcomed.
Have fun guys :wink:
