This addon is currently in under development. If you have any problem !! -!! with it, please contact the Author. !! -!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - -With this addon to Friendika you can give your user the possibility to post -their public messages to any StatusNet instance like identi.ca for example. The -messages will be strapped their rich context and shortened to to the character -limit of the StatusNet instance in question if necessary. If shortening of the -message was performed a link will be added to the notice pointing to the -original message on your server. - -There is a similar plugin to forward public messages to Twitter Twitter Plugin. - -Online version of this document: http://ur1.ca/35mpb - -___ Requirements ___ - -Due to the distributed nature of the StatusNet network, each user who wishes to -forward public messages to a StatusNet account has get the OAuth credentials -for themselves, which makes this addon a little bit more user unfriendly then -the Twitter Plugin is. Nothing to geeky though! - -The inclusion of a shorturl for the original posting in cases when the message -was longer then the maximal allowed notice length requires it, that you have -PHP5+ and curl on your server. -Where to find - -In the Friendika git repository /addon/statusnet/, this directory contains all -required PHP files (including the Twitter OAuth library [1] by Abraham Williams, -MIT licensed and the Slinky library [2] by Beau Lebens, BSD license), a CSS file -for styling of the user configuration and an image to Sign in with StatusNet. - -[1] https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth -[2] http://dentedreality.com.au/projects/slinky - -___ Configuration ___ - -__ Global Configuration __ - -To activate this addon add statusnet to the list of active addons in your -.htconfig.php file - $a->config['system']['addon'] = "statusnet, ...". - -__ User Configuration __ - -When the addon is activated the user has to aquire three things in order to -connect to the StatusNet account of choice. - * the base URL for the StatusNet API, for identi.ca this is - https://identi.ca/api/ - * OAuth Consumer key & secret - -To get the OAuth Consumer key pair the user has to (a) ask her Friendika admin -if a pair already exists or (b) has to register the Friendika server as a -client application on the StatusNet server. This can be done from the account -settings under "Connect -> Connections -> Register an OAuth client application --> Register new application". - -During the registration of the OAuth client remember the following: - * there is no callback url - * register a desktop client - * with read & write access - * the Source URL should be the URL of your Friendika server - -After the required credentials for the application are stored in the -configuration you have to actually connect your Friendika account with -StatusNet. To do so follow the Sign in with StatusNet button, allow the access -and copy the security code into the addon configuration. Friendika will then -try to acquire the final OAuth credentials from the API, if successful the -addon settings will allow you to select to post your public messages to your -StatusNet account. |
