Vimeo.py - Video Rename example

example.py

# Set up a VimeoClient instance:
import vimeo
client = vimeo.VimeoClient(ACCESS_TOKEN, CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)

# Lets get the last (oldest by default) video that the authenticated user uploaded.
users_videos = client.me.videos()

# For now, we need to extract the ID.
# We can do this by taking the uri from the last item in the list,
# Splitting it on the slashes, then taking it's last element.
video_id = users_videos['body']['data'][-1:][0]['uri'].split('/')[-1:][0]

# From this, we can build the function chain.  If we knew the ID to be 1, this would be:
# client.videos.1.patch(changes)
# So we do this with Python's getattr() built-in, and get:
getattr(client.videos, video_id).patch({'name': 'pyTest'})

This just sets the Video Title to 'Untitled' when I try this.

I found that this didn't rename the video. I just got the following output

Did you get anything similar systmkor?

@systmkor @nasfarley88 Sorry about that. It seems that the library was attempting to put the information into the query string and that was not working. I'm not sure when that bug was introduced, but it should be resolved with issue 9.

@systmkor Sorry I didn't see your issue earlier, if you ping twitter.com/vimeoapi then it should filter to an engineer that can handle it faster (sometimes that might be me).
