Python client for interacting with the Trace api. For information on the API see the api documentation

Getting Started

To use in REPL or a non-GUI app:

from py_trace import Trace

client = Trace(<client_key>, <client_secret>)
client.get_authorization_url()
# output should be like https://www.alpinereplay.com/api/oauth_login?oauth_token=<token>, go to the url and authorize the app
# after authorization, you should see a url like http://snow.traceup.com/api/oauth_login?oauth_token=<token>&oauth_verifier=<verifier>
client.get_access_token(<verifier>)
client.get_user()

To use in a web app (using a very basic Flask example):

from flask import Flask, request, redirect
import json

app = Flask(__name__)
trace = Trace(<client_key>, <client_secret>, 'http://127.0.0.1:5000/auth_callback')

@app.route('/auth_callback')
def handle_redirect():
    trace.get_access_token(request.args['oauth_verifier'])
    return redirect('/user')

@app.route('/auth')
def get_user_token():
    url = trace.get_auth_url()
    return redirect(url)

@app.route('/user')
def get_user():
    return json.dumps(trace.get_user())
