imgur-cli

A command line interface for Imgur

Note:

Need Python 3. I decided to stick with only Python 3 in order to encourage other developers to use Python 3. You can (and should) use a virtual environment to ensure there are no dependency issues with other tools and libraries.

Installation

pip install imgurpython

Imgur API Documentation

Documentation for the Imgur API can be found here.

< B6A8 div class="markdown-heading" dir="auto">

Authentication

You must register the CLI with the Imgur API, and provide the Client-ID to make any request to the API (see the Authentication note). If you want to perform actions as a user, the user will have to authorize your CLI through OAuth2.

To use the CLI from a strictly anonymous context (no actions on behalf of a user), you need only the client id and client secret. Once you have these, you need to set them up as environment variables.

export IMGUR_CLIENT_ID=<IMGUR_CLIENT_ID>
export IMGUR_CLIENT_SECRET=<IMGUR_CLIENT_SECRET>

To take actions as a logged in user, you will additionally need an access token and refresh token. You can use the Imgur CLI to do the following:

  1. Get authorization url:

    imgur auth url

  2. Go to authorization url to retrieve PIN and then run the following command:

    imgur auth set-user-auth <pin>

  3. Even though Imgur will set the access token and refresh token, you should also set them as environment variables. After running the command from (2), you will receive the access token and the refresh token. You can set them as follows:

    export IMGUR_ACCESS_TOKEN=<IMGUR_ACCESS_TOKEN> export IMGUR_REFRESH_TOKEN=<IMGUR_REFRESH_TOKEN>

Note:

To set environment variables on a Windows system, you can follow instructions here

Save output of gallery items to a file

Some commands allow to store output in a file (you run the -h option with each command to check).

imgur gallery items --output-file <path_to_file>
