Java

Uses the Java client library

// Configure the Java API Client for Installed Native App
HttpTransport HTTP_TRANSPORT = new NetHttpTransport();
JsonFactory JSON_FACTORY = new JacksonFactory();

// Configure the Installed App OAuth2 flow.
Credential credential = OAuth2Native.authorize(HTTP_TRANSPORT,
	JSON_FACTORY, new LocalServerReceiver(),
	Arrays.asList(BloggerScopes.BLOGGER));

// Construct the Blogger API access facade object.
Blogger blogger = Blogger.builder(HTTP_TRANSPORT, JSON_FACTORY)
	.setApplicationName("Blogger-BlogListByUser-Snippet/1.0")
	.setHttpRequestInitializer(credential).build();

// The request action object.
ListByUser blogListByUserAction = blogger.blogs().listByUser("self");

// Restrict the result content to just the data we need.
blogListByUserAction.setFields("items(description,name,posts/totalItems,updated)");

// This step sends the request to the server.
BlogList blogList = blogListByUserAction.execute();

// Now we can navigate the response.
if (blogList.getItems() != null && !blogList.getItems().isEmpty()) {
	int blogCount = 0;
	for (Blog blog : blogList.getItems()) {
		System.out.println("Blog #" + ++blogCount);
		System.out.println("\tName: " + blog.getName());
		System.out.println("\tDescription: " + blog.getDescription());
		System.out.println("\tPost Count: " + blog.getPosts().getTotalItems());
