A small Kotlin/Java library for posting to [Pinboard](https://pinboard.in).
## Examples
### Kotlin
```kotlin
val poster = PinboardPoster("user:TOKEN")
poster.addPin("http://www.example.com/foo", "This is a test")
poster.deletePin("http:///www.example.com/bar")
```
### Java
```java
final PinboardPoster poster = new PinBboardPoster("user:TOKEN");
poster.addPin("http://www.example.com/foo", "This is a test");
poster.deletePin("http:///www.example.com/bar");
```
Your API authentication token is available on the [Pinboard settings page](https://pinboard.in/settings/password).
## Usage with Maven, Gradle and Kobalt
### Maven
To install and run from Maven, configure an artifact as follows:
```xml
<dependency>
<groupId>net.thauvin.erik</groupId>
<artifactId>pinboard-poster</artifactId>
<version>0.9.0</version>
</dependency>
```
### Gradle
To install and run from Gradle, add the following to the build.gradle file:
```gradle
dependencies {
compileOnly 'net.thauvin.erik:pinboard-poster:0.9.0'
}
```
### Kobalt
To install and run from Kobalt, add the following to the Build.kt file:
```gradle
dependencies {
compile("net.thauvin.erik:pinboard-poster:0.9.0")
}
```
## Adding
The `addPin` function support all of the [Pinboard API parameters](https://pinboard.in/api/#posts_add):
```kotlin
poster.addPin(url = "http://www.example.com",
description = "This is the title.",
extended = "This is the extended description.",
tags = "tag1 tag2 tag3",
dt = "2010-12-11T19:48:02Z",
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 = "http://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
with(poster.logger) {
addHandler(ConsoleHandler().apply { level = Level.FINE })
level = Level.FINE
}
```
or using a property file.
## 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"
```
