Java

Uses the Java client library

// The BlogId for the Blogger Buzz blog
String BUZZ_BLOG_ID = "2399953";

// 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-PostsList-Snippet/1.0")
	.setHttpRequestInitializer(credential).build();

// The request action.
List postsListAction = blogger.posts().list(BUZZ_BLOG_ID);

// Restrict the result content to just the data we need.
postsListAction.setFields("items(author/displayName,content,published,title,url),nextPageToken");

// This step sends the request to the server.
PostList posts = postsListAction.execute();

// Now we can navigate the response.
int postCount = 0;
int pageCount = 0;
while (posts.getItems() != null && !posts.getItems().isEmpty()) {
	for (Post post : posts.getItems()) {
		System.out.println("Post #"+ ++postCount);
		System.out.println("\tTitle: "+post.getTitle());
		System.out.println("\tAuthor: "+post.getAuthor().getDisplayName());
		System.out.println("\tPublished: "+post.getPublished());
		System.out.println("\tURL: "+post.getUrl());
		System.out.println("\tContent: "+post.getContent());
	}

	// Pagination logic
	String pageToken = posts.getNextPageToken();
	if (pageToken == null || ++pageCount >= 5) {
		break;
	}
	System.out.println("-- Next page of posts");
	postsListAction.setPageToken(pageToken);
	posts = postsListAction.execute();
}
