# A script to automatically fetch fixtures from
# the NPR API. Also removes API Key in responses.
#
# ARGS:
# 1. -k / --key API Key
# 2. -i / --id Story ID
# 3. -f / --filename Filename (no dir or ext, eg. 03_story_multiple)
#
# Run from command line from the +fixtures+ folder. Example:
#
#   export KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
#   ruby fetch_formats.rb --key `echo $KEY` --id 166946294 --filename 04_story_multiple_bylines
#
require "optparse"
require "net/http"
require "uri"

# Parse command line arguments
