Uses the Java client library

// The BlogId for the http://buzz.blogger.com/ blog.
String BUZZ_BLOG_ID = "2399953";

// The PostId for a buzz post with comments.
String BUZZ_POST_ID = "5310628572012276714";

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

// The request action.
Get postsGetAction = blogger.posts().get(BUZZ_BLOG_ID, BUZZ_POST_ID);

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

// This step sends the request to the server.
Post post = postsGetAction.execute();
