LiveJournal API client
This is a clone of the original livejournal gem. A few minor fixes and refactorings made. New functionality includes support for alternative servers compatible with LiveJournal API (e.g. Dreamwidth.org).
How to use
Add to your Gemfile
:
gem "livejournal2"
(Please note you can require livejournal
, or livejournal2
- both will work).
Example
require 'livejournal'
dreamwidth = LiveJournal::Server.new("Dreamwidth", "https://www.dreamwidth.org")
user = LiveJournal::User.new('test', 'testkey', dreamwidth)
login = LiveJournal::Request::Login.new(user)
login.run
NOTE: For LiveJournal you use your actual password, but for Dreamwidth instead of password you need to provide an API key that can be generated here: https://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/emailpost
