A pytumblr.TumblrRestClient
is the object you'll make all of your calls to the Tumblr API through. Creating one is this easy:
client = pytumblr.TumblrRestClient(
'<consumer_key>',
'<consumer_secret>',
'<oauth_token>',
'<oauth_secret>',
)
client.info() # Grabs the current user information
Two easy ways to get your credentials to are:
interactive_console.py
tool (if you already have a consumer key & secret)client.info() # get information about the authenticating user
client.dashboard() # get the dashboard for the authenticating user
client.likes() # get the likes for the authenticating user
client.following() # get the blogs followed by the authenticating user
client.follow('codingjester.tumblr.com') # follow a blog
client.unfollow('codingjester.tumblr.com') # unfollow a blog
client.like(id, reblogkey) # like a post
client.unlike(id, reblogkey) # unlike a post
client.blog_info(blogName) # get information about a blog
client.posts(blogName, **params) # get posts for a blog
client.avatar(blogName) # get the avatar for a blog
client.blog_likes(blogName) # get the likes on a blog
client.followers(blogName) # get the followers of a blog
client.blog_following(blogName) # get the publicly exposed blogs that [blogName] follows
client.queue(blogName) # get the queue for a given blog
client.submission(blogName) # get the submissions for a given blog
Creating posts
PyTumblr lets you create all of the various types that Tumblr supports. When using these types there are a few defaults that are able to be used with any post type.
The default supported types are described below.
We'll show examples throughout of these default examples while showcasing all the specific post types.
Creating a photo post
Creating a photo post supports a bunch of different options plus the described default options * caption - a string, the user supplied caption * link - a string, the "click-through" url for the photo * source - a string, the url for the photo you want to use (use this or the data parameter) * data - a list or string, a list of filepaths or a single file path for multipart file upload
#Creates a photo post using a source URL
client.create_photo(blogName, state="published", tags=["testing", "ok"],
source="https://68.media.tumblr.com/b965fbb2e501610a29d80ffb6fb3e1ad/tumblr_n55vdeTse11rn1906o1_500.jpg")
#Creates a photo post using a local filepath
client.create_photo(blogName, state="queue", tags=["testing", "ok"],
tweet="Woah this is an incredible sweet post [URL]",
data="/Users/johnb/path/to/my/image.jpg")
#Creates a photoset post using several local filepaths
client.create_photo(blogName, state="draft", tags=["jb is cool"], format="markdown",
data=["/Users/johnb/path/to/my/image.jpg", "/Users/johnb/Pictures/kittens.jpg"],
caption="## Mega sweet kittens")
Creating a text post
Creating a text post supports the same options as default and just a two other parameters * title - a string, the optional title for the post. Supports markdown or html * body - a string, the body of the of the post. Supports markdown or html
#Creating a text post
client.create_text(blogName, state="published", slug="testing-text-posts", title="Testing", body="testing1 2 3 4")
Creating a quote post
Creating a quote post supports the same options as default and two other parameter * quote - a string, the full text of the qote. Supports markdown or html * source - a string, the cited source. HTML supported
#Creating a quote post
client.create_quote(blogName, state="queue", quote="I am the Walrus", source="Ringo")
Creating a link post
#Create a link post
client.create_link(blogName, title="I like to search things, you should too.", url="https://duckduckgo.com",
description="Search is pretty cool when a duck does it.")
Creating a chat post
Creating a chat post supports the same options as default and two other parameters * title - a string, the title of the chat post * conversation - a string, the text of the conversation/chat, with diablog labels (no html)
#Create a chat post
chat = """John: Testing can be fun!
Renee: Testing is tedious and so are you.
John: Aw.
"""
client.create_chat(blogName, title="Renee just doesn't understand.", conversation=chat, tags=["renee", "testing"])
Creating an audio post
Creating an audio post allows for all default options and a has 3 other parameters. The only thing to keep in mind while dealing with audio posts is to make sure that you use the external_url parameter or data. You cannot use both at the same time. * caption - a string, the caption for your post * external_url - a string, the url of the site that hosts the audio file * data - a string, the filepath of the audio file you want to upload to Tumblr
#Creating an audio file
client.create_audio(blogName, caption="Rock out.", data="/Users/johnb/Music/my/new/sweet/album.mp3")
#lets use soundcloud!
client.create_audio(blogName, caption="Mega rock out.", external_url="https://soundcloud.com/skrillex/sets/recess")
Creating a video post
Creating a video post allows for all default options and has three other options. Like the other post types, it has some restrictions. You cannot use the embed and data parameters at the same time. * caption - a string, the caption for your post * embed - a string, the HTML embed code for the video * data - a string, the path of the file you want to upload
#Creating an upload from YouTube
client.create_video(blogName, caption="Jon Snow. Mega ridiculous sword.",
embed="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40pUYLacrj4")
#Creating a video post from local file
client.create_video(blogName, caption="testing", data="/Users/johnb/testing/ok/blah.mov")
Editing a post
Updating a post requires you knowing what type a post you're updating. You'll be able to supply to the post any of the options given above for updates.
client.edit_post(blogName, id=post_id, type="text", title="Updated")
client.edit_post(blogName, id=post_id, type="photo", data="/Users/johnb/mega/awesome.jpg")
Reblogging a Post
Reblogging a post just requires knowing the post id and the reblog key, which is supplied in the JSON of any post object.
client.reblog(blogName, id=125356, reblog_key="reblog_key")
Deleting a post
Deleting just requires that you own the post and have the post id
client.delete_post(blogName, 123456) # Deletes your post :(
A note on tags: When passing tags, as params, please pass them as a list (not a comma-separated string):
client.create_text(blogName, tags=['hello', 'world'], ...)
Getting notes for a post
In order to get the notes for a post, you need to have the post id and the blog that it is on.
data = client.notes(blogName, id='123456')
The results include a timestamp you can use to make future calls.
data = client.notes(blogName, id='123456', before_timestamp=data["_links"]["next"]["query_params"]["before_timestamp"])
# get posts with a given tag
client.tagged(tag, **params)
This client comes with a nice interactive console to run you through the OAuth process, grab your tokens (and store them for future use).
You'll need pyyaml
installed to run it, but then it's just:
$ python interactive-console.py
and away you go! Tokens are stored in ~/.tumblr
and are also shared by other Tumblr API clients like the Ruby client.
The tests (and coverage reports) are run with nose, like this:
python setup.py test

This is a collection of free CSS Masonry grids. I have found around the Codepen! This Masonry grid allows you to easily create grid layouts in HTML and CSS without having to program the whole thing in JavaScript. CSS Masonry grids are a great way to help layout elements in a grid-like format. If you need some inspiration for your next design layout, see the free CSS Masonry grids below.

One of the most challenging aspects of building webpages is managing layout. HTML and CSS offer several different methods to control layout. The layout options include using normal flow, floats, multi-column layout, flexbox, and CSS Grid. To allow for more complex layouts, CSS Grid aims to be a major step forward by giving developers more control over layout and arrangement of elements on a web page.
There are several really good and helpful resources available to learn CSS Grid. Here’s a quick rundown of resources that helped me learning CSS Grid.

Fun and Games — to learn CSS Grid
CSS Grid works by creating a grid container using the display: grid
property. The immediate children of the grid container are called grid items.
An essential feature of using CSS Grid is setting up the columns and rows to be used in the grid. This is done with the grid-template-columns
and grid-template-rows
properties. There are many different ways to set up a grid.
Let’s say we want a grid with five columns. There’s a few ways to set this up. To build columns, we’ll use the grid-template-columns
property. To create five columns it’s necessary to add five values, on for each column.
.container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 20rem 100px auto 30% 25em;
}
As shown in the code sample, it’s possible to add sizes using different units of measurement, including px
, em
, rem
, %
, and auto
. CSS Grid also introduces a new unit, fr
, which means fractional unit. This is used by assigning size to the grid based on values entered and dividing up the remaining space based on a division of fractional units.
.container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 15rem 1fr 2fr;
}
In the example above, 15rem
is assigned and the remaining space is divided between the two columns, the 2nd column getting 1fr
out of 3 units and the last column getting 2fr
out of 3 units.
The same concepts for columns work for rows. Adding the grid-template-rows
property allows for the explicit creation of grid rows.
.container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 15rem 1fr 2fr;
grid-template-rows: 20rem 400px;
}
This addition establishes two explicit rows in the grid. The row sizes are defined by units. This code creates a grid that is 3 columns by 2 rows and creates 6 total grid cells. Now it’s time for content to flow into the grid.
<div class="container">
<h1>Title</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Dolor, totam.</p>
<img src="sun.jpg" alt="Sun" />
<h4>Image subtitle</h4>
<p>Velit dolor unde explicabo illum ipsa temporibus, hic sed error.</p>
<div>Additional content</div>
</div>
The HTML above includes a <div class="container">
that is used as a grid container. The 6 elements that are the immediate children of the div are the grid items. Since there are only 6 items, each one will fit into the 6 grid cells defined in the CSS code above. If another grid item is added, however, this will now be a total of 7 children element. In this case, CSS Grid will automatically create a new row to include this element. The new row constitutes what is known as the implicit grid - automatically added to the grid, although not explicitly defined.
There are certain situations where a developer does not know exactly how many rows may be needed for a grid — in the case of repeating or auto-generated content, for example. In these situations, it’s possible to make use of the grid-auto-columns
and the grid-auto-rows
properties. These properties set a pre-determined size for implicitly created columns and rows.

The other day one of our students asked about possibility of having a CSS cheatsheet to help to decide on the best suited approach when doing this or that layout.
This evolved into the idea of making a visual CSS cheatsheet with all (most) of the common patterns we see everyday and one of the best possible conceptual implementation for them.
In the end any layout could and should be split into parts/blocks and we see every block separately.
Here is our first take on that and we would be happy to keep extending it to help us all.
Please, send you suggestions in the comments in community or via gitlab for the repeated CSS patterns with your favourite implementation for that so that we will all together make this as useful as it can be.
