Posting from a desktop client

[Leonard]

Hello,

Is there a way to post blog entries from a desktop application (or any other external client)? 

The first thing that comes in mind is for example MarsEdit application that let you post to several blogging platforms.

In case it's not possible, what would require to implement it?

Thanks, cheers

Hi Leonard,

There was talk at one point of writing a REST API for Mezzanine. Credentialed users would send a PUT to https://example.com/api/v1/blogpost/ with a JSON object representing the post's content.

An alternative implementation would use xml-rpc, which is the traditional way tools like Mars Edit work, to expose urls that are connected to CRUD views. I think https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-xmlrpc/ might be a fairly straightforward way to get that started.

hth,

ken
