This is a simple library for interacting with the pastebin API. The code is fairly simple and self-documenting, and all other information needed is contained within this file. Install with pip3 install gluelib
. The current version is 1.2.0, and is the only version that should be used.
(It's called gluelib because pastelib was taken)
When using this library, the first thing to do is generate a session key. This is what you will use instead of a username and password. Call getSessionKey
with your pastebin username, password, and developer key, and you will receive a session key. This is used in all future API calls. Keep it in memory, and generate a new one for every session. You do not need to use your username and password again.
These are the parts of a pastebin URL that identify a specific paste. (e.g. zvwcdXyn
in https://pastebin.com/zvwcdXyn
)
Returns the text of a paste given the above parameters.
Uploads a paste to pastebin with the above parameters. See the pastebin API page for more detail.
The same as makePaste
, but taking the text from a file.
Deletes a paste given the above parameters.
Returns information about your pastes in XML format. Will only display last resultslimit
results.
Returns information about your user profile in XML format.
Returns a session key when given a pastebin username, password, and developer key. See the section on session keys for more.
This function formats a response from the pastebin API. It removes the prefix and suffix bytes, converts the response to a string, and returns it. All other functions in this library pass their output through it. You do not need to use this function in your code.
- Remove functions from
__init__.py
and put them into separate files (and just generally make the structure more conventional)
