Initial API availability

[maciej]

I've enabled an experimental API endpoint at https//api.pinboard.in/
v1/. This version of the API is targeted at developers and people
who want to horse around and are not afraid of a few bugs, hiccups,
complete data loss etc. You're welcome to use it (and I would love
bug reports), but please do not release public code using the API
until I have a chance to finish debugging and testing. I'll make an
announcement on the site blog and this list once things are ready.

This version of the API is meant to exactly emulate the del.icio.us
API, documented at http://delicious.com/help/api. The operations
and syntax listed there should all work, except for the following
unsupported API calls:

posts/all?hashes
posts/suggest
any tag bundle operations
/posts/get - the "hashes" and "meta" argument
/posts/all - "meta" argument

Please let me know by email if you come across any bugs, or if there
are additional API methods you need exposed in order to do something
neat. Also, please rate limit to one request/second and back up your
data before you start mucking around ( https://username:pass...@api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/all).

Thanks!

Maciej

Awesome, thanks for doing this. Something I see off the top of my head
would be the
https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/update to tell when the bookmarks
were last updated. Also, did you see their list of public feeds? Do
you have any plans on implementing something like this?

This is already implemented. Are you having trouble getting it to
work?

A lot of this stuff overlaps with feeds that we already offer. Do you
or others have any particular pages you want to see a feed for, or
feed features (like JSON callbacks) that aren't implemented yet? I
have plans to add a number of feeds (for URL pages, global tag pages,
etc.) but I'm always happy to bump stuff up the priority list if
people are actually asking for it.

https://api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/update does not seem to be returning
anything. The below would be great to get.

Private
Read later
To read (XML of all without secret key, user/pass instead)
Mark as read

Public
Users recent network
Users network members

All recent by specific tag

Popular tags
Popular bookmarks by specific tag

I get the expected response with this syntax:

# curl https://maciej:x...@api.pinboard.in/v1/posts/update
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><update
time="2009-10-17T06:57:43Z" />

Are you getting back an empty response, or any kind of interesting
error? Anyone else able to get this call to work?

I'll add them in.

Thanks!

Thanks for doing that. The update does work with curl, I was trying to
use it in my browser and I the window looked blank but source ended up
having the proper response.

Well, the post/add seems to be working just fine-- thanks! Now I can
stop flooding the server with my email postings. :)

By the way... is the post/add api supposed to work with HTTP POST
requests? It does not seem to, only GETs. (for me, this is not a
problem-- just checking).

[maciej]

The API endpoint only understands GET requests right now.
