Please report any issues you encounter!
$ gem install tumblr_draftking
https://www.tumblr.com/oauth/apps
- Application Name: DraftKing
- Application Description: [anything]
- Administrative contact email: [your email address]
- Default callback URL: [any url]
Once registered you should see your Consumer Key and Secret Key:
Using your Consumer Key and Secret Key from above, access https://api.tumblr.com/console/calls/user/info
$ dk setupSetup will walk you through saving your configuration for future use.
The CLI will walk you through connecting to your Tumblr account the first time it's run.
- See: Setup
Once you've got that configured, check the help to familiarize yourself with your options.
$ dk -hYou can store your DK commands in your configuration file's (i.e. ~/.dkconfig) user_commands array.
Configuration file with two custom commands: tag_with_cool & show_other_account_status
---
:config_name: utb
:api_keys:
consumer_key: [your_consumer_key]
consumer_secret: [your_consumer_secret]
oauth_token: [your_oauth_token]
oauth_token_secret: [your_oauth_token_secret]
:user_commands:
tag_with_cool:
command: dk tag -t cool -c cool
description: Add the tag and comment 'cool' to posts
config_name: utb
show_other_account_status:
command: dk status --config account2
description: Show the status blogs under account2
config_name: account2
Trigger custom command example:
$> dk tag_with_cool
I manually add comments for posts where I want more detail, using a separator ( / | , \ ) to identify tags.
- These tags/comment will not be removed by dk.
~MD~ | architecture | landscape | blue | yams |
Then I'll let DraftKing automatically comment and tag the rest, strip old comments, and move them to my queue.
$ dk md -c ~MD~
- It will preserve post comments which already contain the string passed via
-c ~MD~, so I don't need to worry about overwriting my special cases. - It will also generate tags from the comment. In the above case you would get: #architecture #landscape #blue #yams (the comment in not added as a tag)
And that's it, my queue is loaded with manicured posts!
By default dk will act on your primary blog. To target an secondary blog, specify it using -b <blog name>
$ dk accounts
#> * ---- Accounts ---- *
#> 0. (Default)
#> 1. ugly-test-blog

If the default doesn't exists, the first available configuration will be used.
To use an alternate account: $dk accounts -s . A dialog will help you set it as the default.
To delete an account configuration: $dk accounts -d . A dialog will let you choose which one.
