vkashka

A small wrapper-library for the VK API (version 5.199). It's not complete, but you can extend it yourself. Builds on the Cohttp and Lwt abstractions in an implementation-independent way.

Quick start

Installation of development version.

$ opam pin vkashka.dev https://github.com/dx3mod/vkashka.git

Example of use with the cohttp-lwt-unix backend:

open Lwt.Syntax

let () =
  Lwt_main.run @@

  let token = Vkashka.access_token "YOUR_TOKEN" in
  let module Vk_api = Vkashka.Make (Cohttp_lwt_unix.Client) ((val token)) in

  let* user = Vk_api.Users.(get ~user_ids:[ "username" ] () |> first_exn) in

  Lwt_fmt.printf "User : %a" Vkashka.User.pp user
