python-netflix 0.4.1

python-netflix is a Python library to interface with Netflix REST API & OAuth.

Authorization URL

Get an authorization url for your user

n = NetflixAPI(api_key='*your app key*',
 api_secret='*your app secret*',
 callback_url='http://www.example.com/callback/')

auth_props = n.get_authentication_tokens()
auth_url = auth_props['auth_url']

#Store this token in a session or something for later use in the next step.
oauth_token_secret = auth_props['oauth_token_secret']

print 'Connect with Netflix via %s' % auth_url

Once you click "Allow" be sure that there is a URL set up to handle getting finalized tokens and possibly adding them to your database to use their information at a later date. \n\n'

Handling the callback

# In Django, you'd do something like
# oauth_token = request.GET.get('oauth_verifier')
# oauth_verifier = request.GET.get('oauth_verifier')

oauth_token = *Grab oauth token from URL*
oauth_verifier = *Grab oauth verifier from URL*

#Initiate the NetflixAPI class in your callback.
n = NetflixAPI(api_key='*your app key*',
 api_secret='*your app secret*',
 oauth_token=oauth_token,
 oauth_token_secret=session['netflix_session_keys']['oauth_token_secret'])

authorized_tokens = n.get_auth_tokens(oauth_verifier)

final_oauth_token = authorized_tokens['oauth_token']
final_oauth_token_secret = authorized_tokens['oauth_token_secret']
final_user_id = authorized_tokens['user_id']

# Save those tokens and user_id to the database for a later use?

Getting some user information

# Get the final tokens from the database or wherever you have them stored

n = NetflixAPI(api_key = '*your app key*',
 api_secret = '*your app secret*',
 oauth_token=final_tokens['oauth_token'],
 oauth_token_secret=final_tokens['oauth_token_secret'],
 user_id=final_tokens['user_id'])

# Return a list of the users Instant Queue.
instant_queue = n.get('queues/instant')
print instant_queue

# Add Gabriel Iglesias: Hot and Fluffy to Instant Queue
add_to_queue = n.post('queues/instant', params={'title_ref': 'http://api.netflix.com/catalog/titles/movies/70072945'}) #You can also added "position" to the params to set where this media will be positioned on the users queue.

#This returns the added item if successful.
# If it's already in the queue, it will return a NetflixAPIError, code 412
print add_to_queue

# Remove Gabriel Iglesias: Hot and Fluffy to Instant Queue
## When querying for the users Queue, when iterating over the Queue items
## you can use the 'id' for the next call. Where it says *CURRENT_USER_ID*
## that is automatically returned from the Netflix Instant Queue response.
del_from_queue = n.delete('http://api.netflix.com/users/*CURRENT_USER_ID*/queues/instant/available/2/70072945')

print del_from_queue
