There are a multitude of key-value stores available. Currently you need to choose one and stick with it. I believe an independent open API, not made by a key-value store vendor would make switching between stores much easier. Therefore I'm building a datastore abstraction layer (like ODBC but focused on simpler key value stores) so that...
I need a way to get the current weather back for a certain city with javascript? Which API would I be better to use? Or are there any other apps that you can use an ajax request to get the current weather? GeoPlanit required an appid so I haven't tried this yet and yahoo weather is an RSS feed. I have also read that Google's weather API...
Does anyone know if you might be able to grab google tasks using the calander API? I took a quick look at the API and I did not see any obvious way to grab the tasks information but it might be doable depending on how the tasks data is used in calander. I was hoping someone more familiar with the calander API might be able to shed some...
Hi all, I can uncompress zip, gzip, and rar files, but I also need to uncompress bzip2 files as well as unarchive them (.tar). I haven't come across a good library to use. I am using Java along with Maven so ideally, I'd like to include it as a dependency in the POM. What libraries do you recommend? Thanks, Walter ...
I am writing a key value store API (like ODBC, just the interface, not the underlying store) in many different languages and while I do not want to transliterate the API between languages, I do not want for example to store a value from Java as a "null" and then read it in another language which does not support a concept of null. I'm no...
I think I'm going mad, someone please reassure me. public class MyFile { public static byte[] ReadBinaryFile(string fileName) { return File.ReadAllBytes(fileName); } public static void WriteBinaryFile(string fileName, byte[] fileContents) { File.WriteAllBytes(fileName, fileContents); } } Peo...
As far as I know, Google Code Search and Google Analytics can support searching by regular expression, and both of them offer API that allows developer to call the service by HTTP. Besides these two, any more API can do so? ...
What are common ways of implementing web API request throttling? Are there any libraries for common web frameworks (Rails, Django, Java, etc.) that give you this along with temporary banning? A related question suggests that the rate limiting is done at the web server by limiting requests by IP, but that would mean that all requests are...

I'm working on an API that sends HTML forms to external AJAX apps. Would it be abusing the HTTP headers if I include information such as stylesheets and scripts to use in the headers? I'd like to keep the HTML as clean as possible. ...

We're looking to create an API for our website. One of the major usages for the API (I suspect) will be to allow people to create mobile apps (for the iPhone and hopefully other devices). What's the best way to handle API authentication for users. As a general rule, I don't like encouraging our users to hand their username/email/passwor...

I'm thinking of adding eBay Shopping search to my iPhone app. In other words, a list will appear on the screen in a UITableView with different items that match certain search terms. Is there any guide on how to use the eBay APIs in an iPhone app or at the least a guide on how to use an API that is similar to eBay's API that I can just ...
Reading through documentation, I found following: 1.9.1 1.8.4 1.8.2 A version of "1.8.2" select the obvious, fully-specified version. Specifying a version of "1.8" would select 1.8.4 since this is the highest version released in the 1.8 branch. For much the same reason, a request for "1" loads version 1.9.1, since t...
I'm trying to get Facebook Connect functionality working in my iPhone app. I'm wondering how to get the button lined up correctly in my UITableView: - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell"; UITableViewCell *cell = [tableV...
I am in the planning and early coding stages of writing my first full-fledged API for a large scale we application. I have used several APIs over the years but this is the first time I have been asked to construct something that will allow programmatic interaction on this level. I have done quite a bit of research looking for best prac...
Does anyone know of a "standardized" Java API for working with sensors, and which is closely tied to J2ME as is the case with JSR 256? I'm writing a Java library for interfacing with a sensor network consisting of several different types of sensors (mostly simple stuff such as temperature, humidity, GPS, etc.). So far I've rolled my ow...
Hiya, I need to integrate a google calendar to my ASP website booking system. I've tried to write events to the calendar from my application using the javascript API, but it's failing when the client is not logged in to Gmail - obviously a problem if my customers aren't logged in my Gmail account. Therefore I assume it's not possible ...
There are a few other threads that are similar, but I can't seem to find a difinitive answer, so I apologize if this seems a little repetetive. Here's my situation. My Android app compiles and runs under 1.5 I want to use supports-screen in my Manifest. This means I have to compile with 1.6 in Eclipse or I get errors I set the minSDK t...
