WordPress Webcam Archive Plugin Client

This sample client provides an example of how a webcam image and associated meta information can be sent to a WordPress blog that has the webcam-archive plugin installed.

Python Client

Copy settings_example.py to settings.py and modify as necessary.

Usage

client.py -f path/to/image.jpg [-d meta_dict] [-v]

Parameters

• -f, --file

  The full path to a JPEG image.

• -d, --data

  Optionally, a pickled Python dictionary or JSON-encoded string of meta key-value pairs. The keys must be defined in the WordPress plugin configuration ahead of time. When you create a meta property, a corresponding unique "short name" reference will be generated automatically. Use these "short names" as the keys in the dictionary that you provide on the command line in the script call.

• -v, --verbose

  Verbose script output.

Example

client.py -f path/to/image.jpg -d '{"temperature": "79", "weather": "Sunny"}'
