A continuation of the C# library for Tumblr

TumblrSharp

This is a continuation of the excellent TumblrSharp C# Library developed by the community.

Documentation

Please refer to the Wiki to learn how to use TumblrSharp. A complete documentation can be found here.

Why?

TumblrSharp is a very nicely designed library, and perhaps the only usable C# library that currently exists. However, development for the Codeplex project stopped in 2014. While using the library, I've noticed several bugs which I'll fix and post to this repository.

What has been fixed in this new version?

If you download the old TumblrSharp version off of CodePlex or NuGet, you won't get any of the fixes this libary provides - most notably, support for Asks and Submissions.

• Errors with getting submission posts and their new post state type
• Allow posts to be sent with a published state, which is currently the only way to publish asks
• New CreateAnswer method on PostData class allows for editing and publishing asks
• Eliminated superfluous constructor overloads in PostData methods, allowing for shorter, more maintainable code
• Eliminated unnecessary required parameters like title or body from a text post, as they are not required by the Tumblr API.
• Opted for default values in PostData. This is important because specifying something simple like a PostCreationState on a photo post would require possibly unneeded data, like tags.
• Move everything into a PCL for maximum compatibility.
• Getting dashboard posts after a date rather than before
• "Reblogged from" broken
• Add Reblog Trail support

What needs to be implemented?

• Better documentation
• Examples of how to use the library

What will not be implemented?

• Chat
• Activity

(This is due to restrictions to the V2 API. These endpoints exist but can only be accessed with the official Tumblr app API key).

tumblrsharp's Issues

Reblog to Queue

Is there a way to reblog a post to the queue with ReblogAsync() like it is possible with CreatePostAsync() throught the PostCreationState.Queue?

GetFollowersAsync - Question

hi
can i GetFollowers for any user or for my account only?

How do I input an image into PostData.CreatePhoto?

It says it needs a binaryfile but i don't know how im supposed to convert an image into a binary file.

Add tests

goes hand in hand with #9

exeptionservicecommon.cs not found

is this not compatible with mac? mono

get access token does not work, even if i try to paste the same requestToken which has been fetched on previous step (GetRequestTokenAsync)

Allow injection of HttpClient?

I run an application which makes a lot of simultaneous calls to the Tumblr API using this library and I'm running into what I think might be an issue with my hosting provider (Azure). Specifically, a percentage of the requests made are failing with the message A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

I've been doing some research and the most likely culprit I can find has to do with my application causing port exhaustion on my Azure server with all of the outbound connections (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/troubleshoot-intermittent-outbound-connection-errors#cause). The suggested solution to this (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/performance/performance-best-practices?view=aspnetcore-3.1#pool-http-connections-with-httpclientfactory) involves making use of HttpClientFactory to manage the generation of HttpClient instances to reduce the number of ports being used. Unfortunately since TumblrSharp wraps the initialization of the client used to contact Tumblr, I can't really manipulate this right now.

HttpClientFactory is a .NET Core class; I know TumblrSharp isn't a .NET Core project and I don't know if there are any plans to make it so, but would it be possible for there to be an option to inject an HttpClient from the calling project into TumblrSharp rather than having initialized inside the library? This way I could manipulate the initialization with the factory class on my own and then pass it in for TumblrSharp to do its thing with.

Queuing for image posts don't work

I am able to queue other forms

• Text
• Chat
• Link
• Quote

(Have not tried answers, audio, or video)

I am using this to try to queue:

await Tumblr.CreatePostAsync(
        "my blog", 
        PostData.CreatePhoto(
            new BinaryFile(
                ImageToByteArray(@"file location")
            ), 
            null, 
            new List<string> { "tag" }, 
            PostCreationState.Queue
        )
    );

The image is posted directly and not being queued (it's not being queued and automatically posted as it isn't meant to post and isn't happening to other submissions) so I don't think it's an issue with the above, I do not have any issues with text using PostCreationState.Queue and I am able to post an image to the queue so I don't see it being a tumblr issue.

How to use CallApiMethodAsync<> ?

Hi,

I want to extract few information from user post, how can i achieve that with CallApiMethodAsync?
I don't really understand about the converter argument,

await Client.CallApiMethodAsync(postMethod, CancellationToken, converters);

converters = an optional list of JSON converters that will be used while deserializing the response from the tumblr api

Can you give me an example?

Is there a way to queue reblogs?

ReblogAsync does not let me set a PostCreationState like CreatePostAsync, is there a way to queue the posts instead of instantly reblogging them?

allow optional parameters instead of overloading

many methods have overloaded constructors. It'd be easier to just add optional parameters, so users wont have to specify "tags" if they want to change the "state" when creating a photo post.

Add chat and activity API support

reblogged_from_x doesn't work

API text is no longer supported! Need to upgrade to post trails.

Tumblr.Client.CreatePostAsync() ignores linebreaks

string text = "This\nText" + Environment.NewLine + "Has\rLinebreaks"

string title = "Title"

Tumblr.Client.CreatePostAsync(Tumblr.BlogName, PostData.CreateText(text, title, tags, PostCreationState.Draft));

This snippet of code runs without issues, but the resulting post has no linebreaks.

Add strong name signing

Please activate strong name signing.

Queued Posts

On trying to get Queued Posts by using Tumblr.Client.GetQueuedPostsAsync("blogname"); i get an AggregateException.

DontPanic.TumblrSharp.OAuth.OAuthException: 'GetRequestTokenAsync failed. Status Code: Unauthorized, Message: Unauthorized'

I am not quite understanding the Authenticating guide

I have not done OAuth before and am a little confused with the bottom of /wiki/Authenticating

// this will look different depending on what your platform uses to open URI schemes
[SomeFlagThatTellsThisMethodWhatToOpen]

I am just trying to make a private bot which will run on a server - so first I don't want a browser window to open and second I don't need a flexible solution, I just want it to verify and skip the security.

Sync methods?

When doing non-interactive apps things are much simplified without having to think about the world of async and the task pattern.

.Result can always be used, which is what I've done before, but is there any plan to just include sync versions for consumption?

Switch to flurl

Microsoft's http library is not compatible with our PCL. Switch to Flurl.

Exception on Reblogging

Here is the exception message.
System.IO.FileLoadException: 'Could not load file or assembly 'SshNet.Security.Cryptography, Version=1.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=2fa9220ff3eadda4' or one of its dependencies.

Example is wrong, from where can we get requestToken?

Example is wrong, request token initialized in one method, and used in other one without any initialization, please fix this.

CreateLink

Hello.
When I use this method - thumbnail does not appear.
But when I put it manually via dashboard - it appeared.
Could you help me to make something so thumbnail appears?

Looking for contributors!

I began this project to fix a few problems I saw with the original library. While I'm very knowledgeable about the Tumblr API, I struggle with language tooling and need some help to keep this project afloat.

If you are interested in becoming a contributor, either send me mail or create a comment below with other repositories that you have created or currently maintain. Thanks!

nuget package version

The latest version of package is 1.1.27. That can't be right?

windows 10UAP compatiblity

I've used Tumblr# the original with windows 8, as a windows store app.
Now I'm trying to fix/rebuild it for UAP10 (windows 10 store) and basically can't get it to even let me add it into my project. I get a combination of newtumblrsharp isn't compatible as well as PCL and a bunch of other ones.
Is there a workaround, am I being an idiot? Is there a new guide? with a little more direction that may enlighten me? Or is it just not compatible and it was a miracle I got it to work in 8? LOL

Tumblr.Client.FollowAsync Bad Request

After trying a while, I found out that I can get almost everything to work, except for Tumblr.Client.FollowAsync() and Tumblr.Client.ReblogAsync().
LikeAsync works, getting posts works, and posting works too, but the line await Tumblr.Client.FollowAsync("tumblrblog"); gives me the error shown below.

I have tried in an async void and a non async one, and only async voids give an exception, otherwise it just passes and does nothing at all.

FollowAsync and UnfollowAsync returns bad request/not found

I'm running my code as
await Tumblr.Client.UnfollowAsync("stupid.tumblr.com");

I've also tried with "https://stupid.tumblr.com/", and just "stupid". All return not found, if I do it with the follow method, everything returns "bad request". Any help? Thanks.

source_url and source_title for posts?

In the API documentation, it shows one of the options is adding a source_url and a source_title to posts, which shows up like this:

Would it be possible to add the option to include those?

Thanks!

Accessing raw response data

Thanks for the great library!

When I download posts from Tumblr, I extract what I need and store it in my database. However, I'd also like to store the response data as-is, in case I need something else from them later.

I haven't found any way to access the raw response data, so I thought I could work around it by serializing it with Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.SerializeObject().
This works well when the post type is Quote, but for a Text post, I get an exception:

The method or operation is not implemented.

   at DontPanic.TumblrSharp.Client.TrailThemeConverter.WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, Object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
   at Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.JsonSerializerInternalWriter.SerializeConvertable(JsonWriter writer, JsonConverter converter, Object value, JsonContract contract, JsonContainerContract collectionContract, JsonProperty containerProperty)

   at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.SerializeObjectInternal(Object value, Type type, JsonSerializer jsonSerializer)
   at assembly.method() in D:\path\to\filecs:line 62

Either of those (serialization or access to response data) would be great for me. Maybe I'm just missing something?

TumblrException: Unauthorized

Upon calling Tumblr.Client.GetFollowersAsync(Tumblr.BlogName, followerNumber, 20).Result.Result; i get the error System.AggregateException: 'One or more errors occurred. Inner Exception, TumblrException: Unauthorized.
I have checked, my Keys and Tokens are up to date and correct, but the script i wrote does not post (anymore!) or interact at all with Tumblr. This is however the only error I get, and posting seems to work flawlessly - even tho no actual post gets created.

Conflict with MSCORLIB

The type 'HMACSHA1' exists in both 'bouncy_castle_hmac_sha_pcl, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' and 'mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' SocialMediaPoster

I cannot reference MSCORLIB in the other section of my application that relies on this. Is there a specific reason why you (or the developer) implemented bouncy_castle's System.Security.Cryptography.HMACSHA1 that causes conflicts with baked-in references?

No error message but no post

The application gives me no error message that the authentication failed or any other error message, and it worked a day ago with the exact same code, but now it doesn't post, like, or reblog anything anymore.

I didn't change any code, nor are there any errors, and I tried with several different (known to be working) keys and tokens.

What could this be? Where could i start debugging?

Newbie - how to show Posts via GetPostsAsync?

I have the following code, but I have no idea how to actually display what is returned?
How do I get to the items returned?

Many thanks Simon

public class NewsController : Controller
    {
        public static TumblrClient oClient;

        private async Task<Posts> GetPosts()
        {
            oClient = new TumblrClientFactory().Create<TumblrClient>(Settings.GetString("Tumblr_ConsumerKey"), Settings.GetString("Tumblr_ConsumerSecret"), new DontPanic.TumblrSharp.OAuth.Token(Settings.GetString("Tumblr_Token"), Settings.GetString("Tumblr_TokenSecret")));

            var oPosts = await oClient.GetPostsAsync("http://bloodballreptiles.tumblr.com/", 0, 20);

No exception / error message when creating post

Hi,

I'm trying to create a post using below code:

_client.CreatePostAsync("myblog.tumblr.com", PostData.CreateText("adwqeqweasd"));

Here's the client set up:

CONSUMER_KEY = "xxx"; CONSUMER_SECRET = "xxx"; OAUTH_TOKEN = "xxx"; OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET = "xxx";
_client = new TumblrClientFactory().Create<TumblrClient>(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, new DontPanic.TumblrSharp.OAuth.Token(OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET));

I'm not sure if the format of the blog string is correct. I tried using "myblog". "myblog.tumblr.com" and "https://myblog.tumblr.com/". There are no error messages at all and OAuthToken.IsValid inside _client is 'true'. The blog I'm targetting is the only primary blog in my account. Leaving a blank string does trigger error message "Blog name cannot be empty" but other than that, there are no error messages which might explain what could be going wrong here. I would say auth seems OK.

Should I use the email and password somewhere or is it not needed after specifying the four secret keys?
