Unread count with titles?

[itgiawa]

Its annoying to have to get the subscription list here:
http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/subscription/list
then have to get the unread count here: http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/unread-count?all=true
then have to piece the two together....

Is there a url I can call that gives me titles and unread count all in
the same xml?

Thanks!

I agree,

I'm new to the "API" and there are alot of things that can be done
with a real API that would save a lot of work and calls to google. All
I want is a total count returned for unread. Send me back json with
that value and nothing else. I also want the count of starred items,
currently there is no way to get that without grabbing the feed
completely and then counting the items. At least I never came across
another way.

Google, PLEASE make an official API.

You can get counts with:
http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/stream/items/count?s=user/-/state/com.google/starred

If you want a bit more data, you can get starred item IDs and
timestamps with
http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/stream/items/ids?s=user/-/state/com.google/starred&n=10000.
That should return much faster than actually getting feed contents.

interesting... Thanks

I guess a really nice set of documentation is high on my wish list.

I do wish there was a call that just returned all counts in a single
json object to eliminate requests.

Does `all=true` have any effect? I tried including and omitting but couldn't see a difference.

No, it does not have any effect.

Hi 

Can I know please where did you find the api info like "http://www.google.com/reader/api/0/unread-count?all=true"?

I never knew it.

I thought all available APIs are listed here

http://code.google.com/p/google-reader-api/wiki/ApiStreamItemsIds

But apparently, it is not the case.

Thanks
