Hi everyone,
Podio has an amazing API and this seems like an obviously good thing to have and seems fairly easy to code. I've searched for it but found nothing. Has anyone developed a Google Chrome extension that simply displays notifications as a small popup on the browser ?
If not then I would code it myself (and will do if no one else is willing to and I find myself some 4 hours of free time), but if someone else would like to do it then I'll share the tiny bit of research about it I've done.
- For the oAuth2 authentication on Chrome Extensions, I'd use this: https://github.com/borismus/oauth2-extensions/ Seems fairly easy to use and up to date;
- A configuration option would be good so the user can choose to read a Global Stream, Organization Stream or Workspace Stream which I think are the important ones and urgent to implement. Those are only GET requests which I didn't get if were kept alive or it's supposed to be polling;
- An indicator just needs to be a Browser Action;
- Notifications also seem to be easy use.
I estimate the time needed to code this extension about 2-3 hours for an experienced Javascript developer.
