A simple, yet powerful, commandline client for your Pocket collection.

• PyPi package
• GitHub repository

Pocket is an application for managing a reading list of articles from the Internet.

pockyt is a commandline client that interfaces the pocket API and provides a way to interact with your Pocket collection. Using simple command sequences, routine tasks can be automated and reusable scripts can be created.

pockyt does NOT track, store, or monitor your usage and/or data. Moreover, pockyt interacts with the pocket API using local credentials and does not attempt to communicate with any other services.

pockyt supports Python 2.7+ & 3.4+ on Windows, macOS, & GNU/Linux platforms.

1. Install pockyt: pip install -U pockyt
2. Connect Pocket account: pockyt reg
3. Refer the Examples & Documentation below.

• Get the latest 5 items' links & excerpts and save them to a file.

  pockyt get -n 5 -f '{link} - {excerpt}' -o readlater.txt
  

• Get the oldest 10 items and delete them from Pocket.

  pockyt get -n 10 -r oldest -f '{id}' | pockyt mod -d -i redirect
  

• Get all the items about 'python' and open them in a browser.

  pockyt get -q 'python' -o browser
