copied!<p>Yes, you can. Photobucket has a well-documented <a href="http://photobucket.com/developer/documentation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">API</a>, and someone wrote a <a href="http://code.google.com/p/photobucket-api-py/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">wrapper</a> around it.</p> <p>Download the it and put it into your Python path, then download httplib2 (you can use easy_install or pip for this one).</p> <p>Then, you have to request a key for the <a href="http://photobucket.com/developer/documentation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Photobucket API</a>.</p> <p>If you did everything right, you can write your script now. The Python wrapper is great, but is not documented at all which makes it very difficult to use it. I spent hours on understanding it (compare the question and response time here). As example, the script even has form/multipart support, but I had to read the code to find out how to use it. I had to prefix the filename with a <code>@</code>.</p> <p>This library is a great example how you should NOT document your code!</p> <p>I finally got it working, enjoy the script: (it even has oAuth handling!)</p> <pre><code>import pbapi import webbrowser import cPickle import os import re import sys from xml.etree import ElementTree __author__ = "leoluk" ############################################### ## CONFIGURATION ## ############################################### # File in which the oAuth token will be stored TOKEN_FILE = "token.txt" IMAGE_PATH = r"D:\Eigene Dateien\Bilder\SC\foo.png" IMAGE_RECORD = { "type": 'image', "uploadfile": '@'+IMAGE_PATH, "title": "My title", # <--- "description": "My description", # <--- } ALBUM_NAME = None # default album if None API_KEY = "149[..]" API_SECRET = "528[...]" ############################################### ## SCRIPT ## ############################################### api = pbapi.PbApi(API_KEY, API_SECRET) api.pb_request.connection.cache = None # Test if service online api.reset().ping().post() result = api.reset().ping().post().response_string ET = ElementTree.fromstring(result) if ET.find('status').text != 'OK': sys.stderr.write("error: Ping failed \n"+result) sys.exit(-1) try: # If there is already a saved oAuth token, no need for a new one api.username, api.pb_request.oauth_token = cPickle.load(open(TOKEN_FILE)) except (ValueError, KeyError, IOError, TypeError): # If error, there's no valid oAuth token # Getting request token api.reset().login().request().post().load_token_from_response() # Requesting user permission (you have to login with your account) webbrowser.open_new_tab(api.login_url) raw_input("Press Enter when you finished access permission.
