Adding data

You can add an Activity object to the feed using the add or add_many instructions.

feed = UserPinFeed(13)
feed.add(activity)

# add many example
feed.add_many([activity])

What’s an activity

The activity object is best described using an example. For Pinterest for instance a common activity would look like this:

Thierry added an item to his board Surf Girls.

In terms of the activity object this would translate to:

Activity(
        actor=13, # Thierry's user id
        verb=1, # The id associated with the Pin verb
        object=1, # The id of the newly created Pin object
        target=1, # The id of the Surf Girls board
        time=datetime.utcnow(), # The time the activity occured
)

The names for these fields are based on the activity stream spec.
