Have you used pipes.yahoo.com to quickly and easily do... anything? I've recently created a quick mashup of StackOverflow tags (via rss) so that I can browse through new questions in fields I like to follow. This has been around for some time, but I've just recently revisited it and I'm completely impressed with it's ease of use. It's a...
I really like the interface for Yahoo Pipes (http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/) and would like to create a similar interface for a different problem. Are there any libraries that would allow me to create an interface with the same basic look and feel? I especially like how the pipes behave and how they are not just straight lines. Edit: T...
I am looking for advice on how to create a drag and drop interface similar to Yahoo Pipes: dragging and dropping elements and linking them together. I really don't care if it's Flash or JavaScript or SVG or Open Source or Commercial (although reasonably priced would be better). Ideally I would like to describe my elements as JSON or ...
I'm fooling around with Yahoo! pipes and I'm hitting a wall with some regular expression. Now I'm familiar with regular expressions from Perl but the rules just seem to be different in Yahoo! pipes.

I am working on this yahoo pipe Regex and I found a bug I'm unable to wrap my mind around it. I have a URL, from which I extract digits, cat them and make a img html tag and embed it. The issue is that, the URL is presented in a non padded way, but the image linked has the zeroes. Therefore, when there is a day or a month with single di...
I'm trying to read a feed from Yahoo Pipes into a Silverlight Application. I keep getting a SecurityException, which sounds like a cross domain policy problem, but Yahoo pipes, if you go through the pipes.yahooapis domain, has a cross domain policy, so should be ok. I tried the exact same code, but going to the Digg API, and it works fin...

I am creating a Yahoo! Pipe to a news site but the feedless source doesn't have a date/time for each item. My RSS doesn't works very well: each update makes the RSS Reader, Google Reader for instance, to mark all readed items as unreaded again.

Hi there, I'm having trouble to do something that I though it would be a 5 minutes thing. I want to create a Pipe that accepts at runtime as many URLs as needed.

Obviously the filter module will remove posts with that item so I've been trying to use Regex. I think clearing the item.description field would work well enough. Is there a Regex expression that would repla...

For example, I could pass in first=500 and last=600, and the Pipe will return an RSS feed with only the 500th through 600th itemd in the source feed. Is th...

For each entry I've parsed these elements: link (permalink) title (HTML title) description (HTML entry) guid (segment of the permalink) Various tutorials led me to add these: dc:creator ("Doug") y:id.value (permalink) y:...
