RE: INCREASE the value of STEEM EXPONENTIALLY? An App to Add STEEMIT features to Wordpress and other social platforms

in #steemit7 years ago

Great idea and similar to things we are developing at the moment. Let me know if I can help in any way.

great, thanks! as far as i recall from our brief conversation on this subject in discord - the most optimal way to approach this might be to rethink what you are already doing to make sure it's fundamental mechanisms can be used in a generic way - but i really feel this would be best approached by or with the steemit core developers. at this point though i don't even know who they are!

The steem api is pretty straightforward to use, at least the Python library which is all I've used so far. Steemconnect has a service that allows you to add steem login to your site so it's a pretty simple matter to have it post to steem when they click the button to post on the other site.

ok, that's good to know. usually in this type of situation, where different systems are being interfaced, it is necessary to define the underlying structure of the generic interface and to then create plugins or extensions of some kind that work for each framework or platform that is going to be supported.
it is because of the need to create a generic layer that plays nicely with steem that it would be nice to have input or help from the core devs.. there is no way to know if the layer will be optimally designed without knowing their intentions. maybe opening a github ticket would be best.
i just looked through the steem api docs I found through a search, but don't see any mention of a command to perform a post: https://steemit.github.io/steemit-docs/#introduction
