# devRanta
devRanta is the best async devRant client written in Python. Authentication is only needed for half of the functionality; thus, the username and password are optional parameters when constructing the main class of this package (Api). You can find the latest packages in tar and wheel format [here](https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/devranta/packages).
## Running
```
make run
```
## Testing
Tests are only made for methods not requireing authentication.
I do not see value in mocking requests.
```
make test
```
## How to use
Implementation:
```
from devranta.api import Api
api = Api(username="optional!", password="optional!")
async def list_rants():
    async for rant in api.get_rants():
        print(rant["user_username"], ":", rant["text"])
```
See [tests](src/devranta/tests.py) for [examples](src/devranta/tests.py) on how to use.

## Notes
- All endpoints expect `app=3` for identification.
- Authenticated endpoints require `dr_token` cookie with `token_id`, `token_key`, `user_id`.
- `guid`, `plat`, `sid`, `seid` are used for session tracking.
- Image uploads use FormData for rants and comments.
- Downvotes require a reason ID, prompting a modal if not provided.
- Responses typically include `success` boolean; errors include `error` or `fail_reason`.
- Cookies (`dr_token`, `dr_guid`, `dr_session_start`, `dr_event_id`, `dr_feed_sort`, `dr_theme`, `dr_rants_viewed`, `dr_stickers_seen`, `rant_type_filters`, `news_seen`) manage state and preferences.
