API Questions

| |
Hello,
I noticed in the API documentation that the default RSS search should
return 20 results, however in practice it seems to give 15. For
example:
[link][apikey]
Is it possible to change the number to say 50 for a given api key, or
do I need to generate a search id each time and run multiple get... more »

Packaged bulk mysql downloads!

See:
[link]
We have always been more that happy to produce and give out bulk dumps
on demand to anyone who asks, but the above site is the start of
producing pre-packaged dumps, ready to download at any time.
At the moment they are all `mysqldump` produced text files ready to... more »

|
| |
Geograph servers are moving to a new home next Wednesday, a brand new
data center with our hosting provider Fubra.
All API calls will return a small 503 responce.
Web pages will be a 307 redirect to a status page - itself a 503.
The full size images will not be available either - again 503s.... more »

Not using JSON?
|
| |
Hello Everyone.
New member reporting in for duty.
I am a complete noob to geograph.org.uk but I have been doing some cgi
scripting with gigapan.org. The api there uses the JSON format which
works well for me. If you don't know it, all it does is encode a hash
as a string. Simple and effective.... more »

Faster GeoFeeds! (and total count useful?)
|
| |
We have just changed the 'radius' used on the syndicator interface
from 30km to 10km.
In reality it's unlikely to make much difference to the results - or
at least the first page - which is what is mostly downloaded, as most
areas have well over 15 photos within 10km.
This is so that that these feeds are can be powered by a new search... more »

New getGeographUrl function - update for passing 1M photos
|
| |
Pretty soon we will be passing 1 million photos, (whoop!) and as such
the current folder structure for storing photos, which will while will
continue to work, is not ideal, so we are implementing a small change
to the folder structure.
This only affects people building their own url to the image file, the... more »

BitTorrent access to Geograph archive
|
| |
Bandwidth costs money, and we don't have much, so using BitTorrent to
distribute the entire archive has been appealing idea for some time,
and it's finally available!
Initial announcement:

Barry posted details on using rtorrent to seed these from a Linux... more »

Needs will and all that, anyway needed a way to externally access more
metadata than currently available (easily) though the current API, so
here's a brand spanking new RDF API:

Recent problem or enhancement
|
| |
Some time ago I incorporated a script that Barry kindly provided on to
my own website at: [link]. It
has recently stopped working and returns empty values. Today I went
back to Barry's original example at: [link]
and I notice it shows the same symptoms.... more »

EXPERIMENTAL, Full Text Search Interface
|
| |
Been a while since a post on here... so thought would post this in
case its of interest,
I've been experimenting with full text search engine [1], on the
Geograph archive, and realised could expose a feed exactly like the
real site, which others can play with.
Example:
