A small library for posting to [Pinboard](https://pinboard.in).
## Examples
### Kotlin
```kotlin
val poster = PinboardPoster("user:TOKEN")
poster.addPin("https://example.com/foo", "This is a test")
poster.addPin("https://example.com", "This is a test", tags = arrayOf("foo", "bar"))
poster.deletePin("https://example.com/bar")
```
[View Examples](https://github.com/ethauvin/pinboard-poster/blob/master/examples)
### Java
```java
final PinboardPoster poster = new PinBboardPoster("user:TOKEN");
poster.addPin("https://example.com/foo", "This is a test");
poster.addPin(new PinConfig.Builder("https://example.com", "This is a test")
.tags("foo", "bar")
.build());
poster.deletePin("https://example.com/bar");
```

Your API authentication token is available on the [Pinboard settings page](https://pinboard.in/settings/password).
## bld
To use with [bld](https://rife2.com/bld), include the following dependency in your [build](https://github.com/ethauvin/pinboard-poster/blob/master/examples/bld/src/bld/java/net/thauvin/erik/pinboard/samples/ExampleBuild.java) file:
```java
repositories = List.of(MAVEN_CENTRAL, SONATYPE_SNAPSHOTS_LEGACY);
scope(compile)
.include(dependency("net.thauvin.erik:pinboard-poster:1.2.0"));
```
Be sure to use the [bld Kotlin extension](https://github.com/rife2/bld-kotlin) in your project.
[View Example](https://github.com/ethauvin/pinboard-poster/blob/master/examples/bld/)
## Gradle, Maven, etc.
To install and run from Gradle, add the following to the `build.gradle` file:
```gradle
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile 'net.thauvin.erik:pinboard-poster:1.2.0'
}
```
[View Examples](https://github.com/ethauvin/pinboard-poster/blob/master/examples/gradle/)
Instructions for using with Maven, Ivy, etc. can be found on [Maven Central](https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/net.thauvin.erik/pinboard-poster).
## Adding
The `addPin` function support all of the [Pinboard API parameters](https://pinboard.in/api/#posts_add):
```kotlin
import java.time.ZonedDateTime
poster.addPin(
url = "https://www.example.com",
description = "This is the title",
extended = "This is the extended description.",
tags = arrayOf("tag1", "tag2", "tag3"),
dt = ZonedDateTime.now(),
replace = true,
shared = true,
toRead = false
)
```
`url` and `description` are required.
It returns `true` if the bookmark was added successfully, `false` otherwise.
## Deleting
The `deletePin` function support all of the [Pinboard API parameters](https://pinboard.in/api/#posts_delete):
```kotlin
poster.deletePin(url = "https://www.example.com/")
```
It returns `true` if the bookmark was deleted successfully, `false` otherwise.
## Logging
The library used [`java.util.logging`](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/logging/package-summary.html) to log errors. Logging can be configured as follows:
#### Kotlin
```kotlin
with(poster.logger) {
addHandler(ConsoleHandler().apply { level = Level.FINE })
level = Level.FINE
useParentHandlers = false
}
```
#### Java
```java
final ConsoleHandler consoleHandler = new ConsoleHandler();
consoleHandler.setLevel(Level.FINE);
final Logger logger = poster.getLogger();
logger.addHandler(consoleHandler);
logger.setLevel(Level.FINE);
logger.setUseParentHandlers(false);
```
or using a logging properties file.
## API Authentication Token
The token can also be located in a [properties file](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.properties) or environment variable.
### Local Property
For example, using the default `PINBOARD_API_TOKEN` key value from a `local.properties` file:
```ini
# local.properties
PINBOARD_API_TOKEN=user\:TOKEN
```
```kotlin
val poster = PinboardPoster(Paths.get("local.properties"))
```
or by specifying your own key:
```ini
# my.properties
my.api.key=user\:TOKEN
```
```kotlin
val poster = PinboardPoster(Paths.get("my.properties"), "my.api.key")
```
or even specifying your own property:
```kotlin
val p = Properties()
p.setProperty("api.key", "user:TOKEN")
val poster = PinboardPoster(p, "api.key")
```
_In all cases, the value of the `PINBOARD_API_TOKEN` environment variable is used by default if the specified property is invalid or not found._
### Environment Variable
If no arguments are passed to the constructor, the value of the `PINBOARD_API_TOKEN` environment variable will be used, if any.
```sh
export PINBOARD_API_TOKEN="user:TOKEN"
```
```kotlin
val poster = PinboardPoster()
```
## API End Point
The API end point is automatically configured to `https://api.pinboard.in/v1/`. Since Pinboard uses the `del.ico.us` API, the library could potentially be used with another compatible service. To configure the API end point, use:
```kotlin
poster.apiEndPoint = "https://www.example.com/v1"
```
