API for pulling stories from blog to website

Open amakarudze opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Currently, our blog posts are published on Tumblr and have to be manually added to the Story model for them to appear on the website. It would be great to have an API do that for us so that we don't have outdated posts listed on the website because someone forgot to update the model after publishing a new post.

Tumblr has an API Documentation that could be explored and an API developed to make this work.

I can probably take this one - would you mind registering an application under the django girls Tumblr account (https://www.tumblr.com/oauth/apps) and sharing keys (or sandbox keys if they exist) with me through Slack?

Thanks @ramonsaraiva for picking this up.

Created a draft pull request with one approach I had in mind for triggering this update - let me know what you guys think about it and I'll finalize the test cases and missing pieces of it.
