imgur

Library to interface with the imgur API.

Usage

  1. Register your application with imgur at https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/addclient
  2. Place a file called .imgurrc in your user's $HOME directory with the following contents
    
    :client_id: "client_id_from_registering_app"
    :client_secret: "client_secret_from_registering_app"
    :account_username: "username_of_imgur_account"
    
  3. On first run, you will be presented with a browser window asking you to allow access to your account, do this.
  4. After approval, you will be prompted to enter both the access_token and refresh_token values, which can be retrieved from the URL of the page you are redirected to

Examples:

  client = Imgur::Client.new
  client.images.all(resource: "gallery", page: 0)
  -> [
       [  0] #<Imgur::Client::Image:0x7fa559f29f08 attributes={id:"pzJKU",title:"I had quite the view last night",datetime:1355670464,animated:false,width:5184,height:3456,size:519719,views:0,bandwidth:0,account_url:nil,link:"http://i.imgur.com/pzJKU.jpg",ups:94,downs:0,score:406,is_album:false}>,
