Description: ## Medium Muncher
        
        Medium makes content readily available for machine consumption through the `format=json` param, and content feeds via the `feeds` path, however the XML and JSON responses are not exactly plug-and-play for redisplaying content. Enter this package. 
        
        ### Installation
        via pip with 
        
        ```
        pip3 install mediummuncher
        
        ```
        
        ### Usage
        
        Getting a story as stand-alone HTML (with head and body tags)
        
        ```
        from medium_muncher import MediumMuncher
        
        muncher = MediumMuncher()
        full_html=muncher.munch_story('https://medium.com/some-author/some-amazing-article-039525')
        #returns "<!doctype html><head>... "
        ```
        Getting a story as an html snippet (no head or body)
        
        ```
        html_snippet=muncher.munch_story('https://medium.com/some-author/some-amazing-article-039525',snippet=True)
        #returns "<p>article text!..."
        ```
        
        Using the `verbose` flag returns a tuple with the html and a dictionary of interesting article attributes such as title, published date etc. 
        
        ```
        html_snippet=muncher.munch_story('https://medium.com/some-author/some-amazing-article-039525',snippet=True, verbose=True)
        #returns tuple ("<p>article text!...", {"title":"this amazing article"...,)
        ```
        
        Getting all the story urls for a given author
        
        ```
        stories=muncher.munch_author_feed('some-author')
        #returns tuple ("https://medium.com/some-author/amazing-article-one-12902990",..,) 
        ```
        
        Putting it all together to extract all stories for a given author
        
        ```
        stories=list()
        for url in muncher.munch_author_feed('ethan.m.knox'):
            stories.append(muncher.munch_story( url,
                                                snippet=True,
                                                verbose=True))
        print(list)
        
        ```
