action=flow&submodule=new-topic API result
Raw
flowapiresult
Method that uses mwclient's Site.api method to post a new topic to a Flow board:
def postflow(page, topic, message, site):
"""testing posting a new Flow topic through the API"""
token = site.get_token('csrf')
cooptitle = 'Wikipedia:Co-op/Mentorship match'
kwargs = {'action': 'flow',
'page': cooptitle,
'submodule': 'new-topic',
'token': token,
'nttopic': topic,
'ntcontent': message,
'workflow': 's7hjfbzj7bjwke99'}
query2 = site.api(**kwargs)
return query2
Calling this in the Python interpreter, as:
>>> flowpost2 = mbapi.postflow('page', 'test topic2', 'test message2', site)
>>> pprint.pprint(flowpost2)
yields:
