A python API for the HootSuite REST API.
.. code-block:: shell
pip install hootsweet
.. code-block:: python
from hootsweet import HootSweet

save_token_to_db(token)
client = HootSweet(client_id, client_secret, redirect_uri=redirect_uri, refresh_cb=handle_refresh)
# Step 1 get authorization url from HootSuite
url, state = client.authorization_url()
# Step 2 go to url above and get OAuth2 code
token = client.fetch_token(code)
# client.token now contains your authentication token
# Step 3 (optional) refresh token periodically, this automatically calls handle_refresh
token = client.refresh_token()
# retrieve data from https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/me
me = client.get_me()
# retrieve authenticated members organizations https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/me/organizations

HootSuite uses it's own AWS Bucket to add media to a message. To attach media to you message you need to first upload the media to HootSuite's bucket.

}
client = HootSweet("client_id", "client_secret", token=token)
mime_type = "image/png"

file_size = file_path.stat().st_size
upload_details = client.create_media_upload_url(file_size, mime_type)
upload_url = upload_details["uploadUrl"]
media_id = upload_details["id"]
# The number of seconds you have to upload the media
expires_in = upload_details["uploadUrlDurationSeconds"]
# Upload the media
with file_path.open("rb") as f:
