golove

This repository contains two Go packages. The first, love, is a client library for Yelp Love. The second, golove, is a program that allows you to send love from the command line.

Documentation is available at godoc.org:

• love
• golove

To use either tool, you must have an API token. API tokens are available only to administrators, since they allow you to send love as any user. To create an API token, go to your website. Select "API Keys" from the Admin dropdown, type a description, and hit "Add". Then copy the generated key.

Usage

The library is fairly simple, and golove is a good reference for library usage. Here is a simplified example:

import "github.com/hacsoc/golove/love"

// ...

client := love.Client(api_key, base_url)

// send love from hammy to darwin
err := client.SendLove("hammy", "darwin", "great job fixing the site!")
if err != nil {
	// handle error
}

// returns loves sent to darwin, limit of 20
loves, err := love.GetLove("", "darwin", 20)
if err != nil {
	// handle error
}

// gets completions as the user types "ha"
users, err := love.Autocomplete("ha")
if err != nil {
	// handle error
}

Possible causes for errors are network connectivity issues, or HTTP status codes which correspond to failures.
