Twitter and Jaiku from the command line

jrobertson (James Robertson) — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 18:28:00 GMT

The following instructions make it easy to post to Twitter and Jaiku from the command line. The instructions were copied from the article "Ubuntu Unleashed: Howto Twitter From the Command Line in Ubuntu!" [ubuntu-unleashed.com] and modified to post via Rorbuilder's ProjectX API.

sudo apt-get install curl
sudo gedit /usr/bin/jaitwit
Now Paste this in gEdit and simply replace "YourUsername" with your username and "YourPassword" with your twitter passwd, then replace the Jaiku variables (YourUsername, YourPassword, YourCity, YourAccessKey) and ctrl-s to save, then alt-F4 to exit!



curl http://rorbuilder.info/api/projectx.cgi?xml_project=%3Cproject%20name=%22micro_blog%22%3E%3Cmethods%3E%3Cmethod%20name=%22post2jaiku%22%3E%3Cparams%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22user%22%20val=%22YourUsername%22/%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22msg%22%20val=%22`echo $@|tr ' ' '+'`%22/%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22location%22%20val=%22YourCity%22/%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22apikey%22%20val=%22YourAccessKey%22/%3E%3C/params%3E%3C/method%3E%3Cmethod%20name=%22post2twitter%22%3E%3Cparams%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22user%22%20val=%22YourUsername%22/%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22msg%22%20val=%22`echo $@|tr ' ' '+'`%22/%3E%3Cparam%20var=%22password%22%20val=%22YourPassword%22/%3E%3C/params%3E%3C/method%3E%3C/methods%3E%3C/project%3E -o /dev/null

echo Message Sent!

Then chmod for exec privileges:
chmod +x /usr/bin/jaitwit
Then from the CLI type jaitwit followed by your message.
jaitwit "message here without the quotes"

Post to Jaiku using PHP

jrobertson (James Robertson) — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 18:50:56 GMT

This example uses the ProjectX API to post to Jaiku.com



  $msg = 'this is just a test message using the ProjectX API for posting to Jaiku';



  $xml_result =  simplexml_load_file('http://rorbuilder.info/api/projectx.cgi?xml_project=');

  $method_result = $xml_result->post2jaiku;

  echo 'result' . $method_result;

?>

Post to both Jaiku and Twitter

jrobertson (James Robertson) — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 15:36:06 GMT

This XML code is the ProjectX API to post to both Twitter and Jaiku. This is a follow-up example from Post to Jaiku using ProjectX API [dzone.com]



xml_project = <

Post to Jaiku using ProjectX API

jrobertson (James Robertson) — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 21:33:51 GMT

This Ruby code uses the ProjectX API on rorbuilder.info to send a post to Jaiku.

Prerequisites:
1) You have a Jaiku account. see http://jaiku.com/
2) You know your Jaiku API key. see http://api.jaiku.com/



#!/usr/bin/ruby

# file: projectx_client.rb



require 'net/http'

require 'rexml/document'

include REXML



class ProjectXClient

  attr :doc

  def initialize(raw_url)

    url = URI.escape(raw_url)

    xml_data = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse(url)).body

    @doc = Document.new(xml_data)

  end

  

end



if __FILE__ == $0



xml_project = <

  

    

      

        

        

        

        

      

    

  

"

PROJECT

  

  pxc = ProjectXClient.new("http://rorbuilder.info/api/projectx.cgi?xml_project=" + xml_project)

  doc = pxc.doc

  puts doc

    

end

You can also pass the url including xml into the address bar and it will post to Jaiku successfully.
eg.
http://rorbuilder.info/api/projectx.cgi?xml_project=""

Note:
Your api key is not in any way stored by the website rorbuilder.info.
Rorbuilder.info is a 3rd party developer website which is not part of Jaiku.com.
