Import data from Google+ to Wordpress

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Will eventually sync both posts and comments on the posts.

Uses the Google+ Public API, so can only sync public posts. Uses it via the

google-api-python-client python module.

Uses the Wordpress XMLRPC API, so that needs to be enabled. Uses it via the

python-wordpress-xmlrpc python module.

html2text and nltk are used for generating a much nicer title then G+ produces.

(By getting the first sentance.)

oEmbed is used to get some nice extra information about the stuff we are trying

to embed, because G+ is really crappy at passing useful info. (We also use my

custom Picasa Web oEmbed endpoint to do video embedding).

We produce a bunch of different post types to allow styling different;

 * Standard Text Post

 * Single Photo/Video post

 * Gallery Post (collection of Photo/Videoes)

    * http://highslide.com

 * Website share

There is also a "reshare" post which is basically one of the above post types

wrapped in a reshare block tell who it came from.

# Set Up

Install requirements in requirements.txt

	$ sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

Create a config.py with your Embedly key;

	$ cp config.py.dist config.py

Create a client_secrets.json with your G+ API key details;

	$ cp client_secrets.json.dist client_secrets.json

Run the command

	$ python plus.py

Wordpress Side

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*** Warning PHP code! ***

Stores the G+ ids in the Wordpress Meta information -

	'meta_query' => array(

		array(

			'key' => 'google_plus_(activity|comment)_id',

			'value' => XXXX,

		),

We use the following Wordpress filter, to support showing Google+ photos in the

comments; this basically stores the URL in the meta data under 'google_plus_comment_avatar'.

	function get_avatar_google($avatar, $id_or_email, $size, $default, $alt) {

	    if (isset($id_or_email->comment_ID)) {

		$plus_avatar = get_comment_meta($id_or_email->comment_ID, 'google_plus_comment_avatar', true);

		$matches = array();

		if (preg_match('/(https:\/\/.*\.googleusercontent\.com.*)\?sz=\d+/', $plus_avatar, $matches)) {

		    return "";

		}

	    }

	    return $avatar;

	}

	add_filter( 'get_avatar', 'get_avatar_google', 1, 5);
