pysnap

A Python library for the Snapchat API

The implementation is partially based on php-snapchat by dstelljes and the full disclosure by GibSec.

Installation

Pysnap is a standard Python package (setuptools) which can be installed by running:

python setup.py install

If you prefer not to install it globally, you can install it inside a virtualenv.

Example API usage

from pprint import pprint
from pysnap import Snapchat

s = Snapchat()
s.login('username', 'password')
snaps = s.get_snaps()

pprint(snaps)
