    <h1>We hear you like APIs...</h1>

      <li class="active">API</li>
    </ul>

    <p>We have a <a href="/api/endpoints">well-documented API</a> that allows you to build custom integrations, in addition to our <a href="/integrations">existing integrations</a>. For ease-of-use, we've created a Python module that you can drop in to a project to start interacting with our API.</p>

    <span class="pull-right muted">Version 0.1.8</span>

    <p>&nbsp;</p>

    <h3>Installation instructions</h3>
    <p>This package uses distutils, so you can just run <code>python setup.py install</code> after downloading.</p>

    <p>You can find your API key and allocate new API keys for
    bots/integrations that you run on your <a href="/#settings"
    target="_blank">settings page</a>.
    Create <code>~/.humbugrc</code> and add the following text to
    it:</p>

<div class="codehilite"><pre><span class="k">[api]</span>
<span class="na">key</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">API_KEY</span>
<span class="na">email</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">EMAIL_ADDRESS</span>
</pre></div>

    <p><strong>Don't want to make it yourself?</strong> Humbug <a href="/integrations">already integrates with lots of services</a>.</p>

    <p>&nbsp;</p>

These code snippets are generated using our very own Humbug tool, by
sending them to myself in a code block, and then using the inspector
to pull out the resulting HTML :)

        <p>You can use <code>humbug-send</code> (found in <code>bin/</code> in the tarball) to easily send Humbugs from the command-line, providing the message to be sent on STDIN.

<h4>Stream message</h4>
<div class="codehilite"><pre>humbug-send --stream Denmark --subject Castle</span></pre></div>

<h4>Private message</h4>
<div class="codehilite"><pre>humbug-send wdaher@humbughq.com</span>
</pre></div>

<h4>Passing in the message on the command-line</h4>
<p>If you'd like, you can also provide the message on the command-line with the <code>-m</code> flag, as follows:</p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre>humbug-send --stream Denmark --subject Castle -m <span class="s2">"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark."</span>
</pre></div>
