Python WordPress

A simple Python library for talking to Wordpress in JSON. This library relies on the WordPress JSON API plugin. This won't work if your WordPress site doesn't have the plugin installed.

Install:

$ pip install python-wordpress

Or git clone and python setup.py install and such.

Usage:

>>> from wordpress import WordPress
>>> wp = WordPress('http://example.com/blog/')
>>> posts = wp.get_recent_posts()

For now, this only covers the read portions of the API under the core controller. See the WordPress JSON API documentation for details.

Tests assume a WordPress blog running on MAMP at http://localhost:8888/wordpress, but you can change that by setting WORDPRESS_BLOG_URL as an environment variable, like so:

WORDPRESS_BLOG_URL=http://wordpress.local.host python test.py
