Weekly news
Only two days have gone by since the developer preview was launched and there’s already so much to tell. We’ve been receiving lots of invitation requests and we’re trying our best to answer to everybody on time.
While we were fixing bugs and writing code, you were busy creating workflows and using the API with your favorite programming language. Here’s what happened on these two days:
- Andy Armstrong launched the WWW::TarPipe Perl module, available through CPAN;
- Alcides Fonseca launched the TarPipe Python API, available at Google Code;
- Alexandre Loureiro Solleiro wrote a very comprehensive quick how-to, to help first time users start their own workflows;
- Lots of bugs were fixed thanks to numerous reports sent by you.
You guys rock! Thank you for all the support and involvement.
One last thing: we’re almost finishing the flickr connector and will be adding others right after that. Which new services would you like to see featured inside tarpipe?
First of all, let me congratulate you for Tarpipe.
The services I would like to see are: del.icio.us; digg; blogs.sapo.pt; youtube.

I’d love to see Ma.gnolia support.
Is the eventual plan to let users take a tarpipe you build and connect it to their account?

Flickr is high on my list; what about something like, say, Wordpress?

Stephen: thanks for the suggestion. The possibility of using workflows created by other users is definitely on our plans.

i’d like an option to copy a workflow, e.g., i have this email workflow, but now downloaded dropipe and don’t want to have to recreate my workflows again when all it changes is just the receiver, not the workflow.
other than that, congratulations

oh, the naming of the image field in the api call is a bit restrictive, shall we say. but then again, the api is still walking its baby steps, i suppose.
