        # Weibo Write API

A Python wrapper for Weibo write API.

![Python 3.7](https://img.shields.io/badge/Python-3.7-3776ab.svg?maxAge=2592000)

## Note (2020.12)

Weibo(.com/.cn) recently had an update that added more restrictions to the login logic. Basically if a device is not trusted (like a new device), multi-factor authentication is always required during login. The library now supports secondary verification via sms or private message. 

Although secondary verification is supported, there are some non-negligible limitations. For example, the process cannot be fully automated (need human intervention), and certain authentication method (especially sms) can only be used a few times per day. 

As a result, it is highly recommended to save the requests session to avoid re-login every time when using the api. Check [``examples/``](examples/) on how to save/load the session to a file.
