skorokithakis / imgur-uploader Goto Github PK

I've gotten both id, secret and refresh token (via this method https://stackoverflow.com/a/61343188) but I still can't see the picture being uploaded in my account. Any ideas?

Some feedback based on my experience.

If you want your images to appear in your account, you additionally need to get a refresh token. See the Imgur API https://apidocs.imgur.com/#authorization-and-oauth for information on how to obtain this.

See the Imgur API https://apidocs.imgur.com/#authorization-and-oauth for information on how to obtain this. However if you already have the id and secret, just login with your browser on https://imgur.com/ and then on another tab enter this URL (replace CLIENT_ID)
https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&response_type=token
Accept, and from the resulting url you need to extract the refresh_token.

The tool will return a shortened link to your uploaded gif upon completion:

Suggestion:
If you want to extract the url you can do it this way

# # Upload and get response
res=$(python3 ~/bin/imgur-uploader/imgur_uploader.py  image-file.png )
# # Extract url from response
link=$(echo $res | egrep -o "http.*")

Hi there, installed this, but can't run imgur-uploader, says command not found...

Do I need to add a directory to the environment? Where is the imgur-uploader executable located?
