Getting Started

To begin with, you'll need to head over to Akismet and join the developer program to obtain an API key.

Note: In order to run the included tests, this key should be set as AKISMET_KEY in your environment.

Usage

```rust // Initialize client let akismetclient = AkismetClient::new( String::from("https://exampleblog.com"), // The URL for your blog akismetkey, // Your Akismet API key reqwest::Client::new(), // Reqwest client to use for requests AkismetOptions::default(), // AkismetOptions config );

// Verify key akismetclient.verifykey().await?;

// Create a comment let comment = Comment::new(akismetclient.blog.asref(), "8.8.8.8") .commentauthor("exampleUser1") .commentauthoremail("example-user@example.com") .commentcontent("example comment content");

// Check comment for spam let isspam = akismetclient.check_comment(comment).await?; ```

Testing
