Integrating laconi.ca to SMOB
Gautier (aka lespetitescases) just hacked his SMOB client to make it post on identi.ca as well as on twitter. He’s using the new laconica API combined with the same method that SMOB uses at the moment to post on twitter (CURL + HTTP-Auth). As this feature was on the TODO list and some people were asking for it (a thread was also started by John recently on both SIOC and identi.ca mailing-lists) that was a really great news !
I just added those changes to the SMOB client (get it or update from svn) , so that it can now be used to post on identi.ca ! Moreover, I added the ability to post not only on identi.ca but on any laconi.ca based microblogging platform. You’ll see news parameter in the config_dist.php file, that let you set-up a list of servers with dedicated user / pass, as follows. Then, when publishing an update, you’ll be able to choose those servers as well as the previous ones (including twitter), and enjoy multiple-posting:
Then it’s browsable everywhere, but you still own it locally as RDF data so that you can re-use it later, etc.
Once again, merci Gautier !
