At the bottom of every page is a link to . Although this page only has API information about getting a post listing from a specific sub via the API, I suspect that we have more robust API functionality under the hood. I can't believe anyone implemented an API and only added a single get method with limited use... Is there any information or documentation available? I would like to start exploring the possibility of creating a bot that will automatically generate hooktube link comments for youtube posts but I don't want to just start fucking with the api to see what I can get to work.

Hi. The api is mostly¹ what you can see on that page. We used to have an older (v1) api that was totally broken and with really bad code so that was scraped and I started writing the new API. While I was rewriting it some higher priority tasks and the API was kinda abandoned. It is a low priority task right now (), but once the mobile site is finished, 80% of the code required to have a fully functional API will be already there and it'll be trivial to make it functional.

¹ The only undocumented part of the API is an OAuth provider.

I’ll look into it. I’m not sure what the api functions are. would know more than I currently on the subject.
