There's a lot that you can do with our API. Essentially it allows your application (web, desktop, mobile, etc) to tap into DaniWeb's backend. Your own application can …  |
 | Been running a couple of article queries this morning. When running `http://www.daniweb.com/api/articles?forum_id=61` I encountered what looks like a bug. The 11th thread reply coming back in the query is the following: { "title":"please help me .........", "related":[ { "id":"" } ], "posters":[ { "id":"1098860" }, { "id":"46588" }, { "id":"1091071" … |

 | I thought this was discussed somewhere, but I can't find the thread. I've updated my authorization to the one you gave me Dani. If I now start my DwArticleWatch after a while (about 2 hours, but unconfirmed) I get an error message that curl failed. I think the access token … |
| | A few new OAuth-related API features. Firstly, there is now the concept of scope. So if you want to do things like spy on a member's private messages or chat on their behalf, you now need to pass in the required scope (details in API documentation) to ask for more … |

| | As far as I can see, to develop applications using OAuth we need to own server space to host a site? An application, when registered to DaniWeb, requires a URL to be provided. A desktop application obviously doesn't have one of these. When sending OAuth requests we have to provide … |
| | This was posted in a behind-the-scenes forum yesterday, but here it is for everyone today: There have been a LOT of changes so far, and more to come. Most of what's happened so far has dealt with OAuth. A lot more security on the backend and more in line with … |
| | Hi Dani, AFAIK OAuth 2.0 supports 3 flavours: Server side apps, client side apps and installed apps. Does Daniweb Oauth allow OOB in the redirect_uri which is part of the support for installed/standalone apps? If no, are you expecting desktop app writers to spawn a local web server and use … |

| | Dani, if I get the following URL: http://www.daniweb.com/api/articles?page=1&orderby=firstpost&access_token=MY_TOKEN it returns the attached JSON result, which fails to `json_decode()`. Can you have a look please? |
| | There is full read and write chat functionality now added to the API :) Who wants to write two-way IRC<-->DaniWeb Chat integration? ;) Any takers ... ?? You need an access token in order to post, but it's feasable if you create a new DaniWeb account named "IRC Bot" and …  |

 | A short while ago I was intrigued by a reply made by nullptr in [this thread](http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/cpp/threads/458583/shellexecuteex-api). So I began to look for ways to access the rest of IE (IWebBrowser2) interface, and met limited and varied success. Accessing for instance a <div></div> element in a wep page html document was … |
| | Would it be useful to have an update thread for when you make changes to the API structure for example. Did forum_id get changed from forumid or then to just id for certain forums (can_read)? My app stopped working and I couldn't work out why - then iterating over the … |
| | Attached is the code for my RSS dashboard, using the DaniWeb API. It's an improved version of the mashup I posted earlier, using jQuery to get all feeds asynchronously. The part which initially loads the forums is shown below. It creates an API object, and a Parser object. The first … |

 | I don't know if there is a mobile app or mobile version for this site, but I have not seen one. I think it could work great if you could check to see if someone has answered your question from a mobile device or respond to someones answer. although you … |

| | The very early workings of an API ... http://www.daniweb.com/api/documentation Any ideas churning?? |
| | Just asking about the relevancy/meaning of 'page' in requests based on 'members'. e.g. http://www.daniweb.com/api/members?page= http://www.daniweb.com/api/members/{:IDS}?page= When used in this manner, I seem to get a random bunch of members (when not set to 1), regardless of IDS. How many members/page ? |
| | I know I promised not to make anymore drastic changes to the API, but ... well ... I lied. The two API write operations (voting on posts and watching/unwatching articles) used to always respond with a JSON object in the format success: true or success: false Now, they return the … |
| | Here's my base class and class for the unauthenticated DaniWeb API calls. Not every method has all features implemented yet, and it's not been fully tested either. Here's how to start using it: include 'DwApiBase.class.php'; include 'DwApiOpen.class.php'; $dwapi = new DwApiOpen(); $result = $dwapi->GetMemberActivityPoints(94719); $result = $dwapi->GetMemberEndorsements(94719); $result = $dwapi->GetMemberReputationComments(94719); … |
| | OK, as promised, here's an updated 'quick(!) and dirty' class for retrieving and setting data via the Daniweb API. It allows the extraction of data based around: # DATA RETRIEVAL & SETTING # ## non-OAuth ## * forums * articles * posts * members * activity points * endorsements * … |

This class could be extended for articles, posts, etc etc. The retrieval methods include … |
| | ## RSS Class ## The code snippet is a PHP class for retrieving RSS feeds from the DaniWeb website. There are two exposed methods, one for retrieving the list of predefined article types, and another to get a specific RSS feed. If you pass parameters to this method, there is … |
| | ## API Mashup ## This example is a mashup of [diafol's class](http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/php/code/451428/daniweb-api-class-for-getting-forums), [Dani's parsing code](http://www.daniweb.com/api/documentation) and [my class](http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/php/code/451390/daniweb-api-rss-class). It uses diafol's dwAPI class to retrieve a list of all forums, loops through them, and uses my Rss class to get the respective RSS feeds. It will show each forum in … |
| | Wondering if, and if so where, I can revoke an authorization for an API client. It would be quite useful for testing if I can revoke it, to test and debug the application flow. Now the only possibility (AFAIK) is to add a new application. |
| | The docs page for the DW API is off in IE10 (Win8), in Opera it works fine. Screenshot attached.  |
| | Wasn't sure yet whether to post this publicly. I've adjusted the PHP code snippet for the OAuth. Curl allows you to trap a redirect and this snippet just shows how to do that for the token. The regex searches for the redirect url in the returned header, it can be … |

| | Hi all, following a chat with Dani, I'm just posting an example of a jQuery OAuth implementation. Major updates to come over the next weeks and months, but it's a start. I'll be publishing the code once I've cleaned it up and de-noobified it somewhat. :) http://dw.diafol.org/ |
| | Been playing with the API a fair bit now in terms of writing a C# port of it. I tend to convert everything returned in JSON to an XmlDocument before manipulating it (Simply because I don't actually know how else to handle it within C#) However if I run any … |
The End.
