Write-enabled API (Brainstorming)

[yamill]

this would be awesome. a write api would allow us to create some nice apps that are integrated with nodebb

[julian]

Thanks @yamill -- this is definitely something that's been on our minds for the next version (not that we're thinking that far ahead yet... still 0.5.0 to be released)

[yamill]

@julian that's great news! i really love what you guys are doing with nodebb.

Will the planned writeable API include a login / logout (optional Register account) function?

I need something like that to call via PHP or PHP rendered code (JS if client side), because oauth isn't a useable Option.

[agarcia17]

yes..! this would be amazing!! how's it coming along @julian ?

[julian]

@agarcia17 in have a proof of concept working, though it needs to be fleshed out a bit.

I'm currently out of town (speaking at a js event in Calgary!), so I'll make it a focus of mine when I get home assuming nothing else comes up!

Would be nice to encode the api at user experience. like restfull.

have a 'createNewCategory' topic inside 'admTool' category, if a mod write a respod with "footbal & rugby" the api create a new category named 'footbal & rugby'.
Each category has a '/proc' topic to acces api funcion over .this category.
to chance my photo i could go to admTool/chPic topic and upload a image.

if the api is themeble can pack the adm routine like moderated or not. Can be 'monarchyed', the api just accept the call of the King login.

Is there an update on the write API? Would be interesting to see how it's coming along.

Just checking to see if there was an update to this. Seems this thread has been dead-ish

[Christopher Fowers]

Sort of got my own answer. though not too clear on it. Repo found here: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-write-api
