skapi: add a way to retrieve articles behind a paywall

right now, the only way to store an article behind a paywall, is to use Wallabagger's option to provide the content of the page being displayed together with the request of storing it.

that's workable.

but it'd be nice to also punch through paywalls on a /reload/{article} endpoint.

#Issues

  • each paywall has its own "authentication" dance to hoop through
  • renewing credentials can be tedious
  • keeping up with the "authentication" dance modifications (for each paywall we may want to support)
  • storing credentials ?

#Ideas

  • devise a plugin mechanism to fetch content for each paywall ?
  • devise a "call to 3rd party" service that does the retrieval and provides the content ?
