CafeSync: Integrations

in #utopian-io8 years ago (edited)

Introduction

In CafeSync an Integration is a qml/javascript plugin that connects CafeSync to other services to display the content in a CafeSync specific style and format. Each CafeSync user can choose up to five external sources giving them the best chance to be noticed by those on the network. Below is a list of both the working and soon to be working integrations.

Social Networks

Twitter

The very first integration added to CafeSync it has gone through more changes than any of the others.

Tumblr

Tumblr is one of the most diverse post driven network yet on CafeSync, where many have one or two types of post it seems every user has a new post format. Currently it supports Images, Blog Posts, and Links. It does not support Image slideshows or animations.

RSS feeds

Medium (RSS)

Medium as a service is interesting in that most of their RSS feeds are the complete document so you get a full reader experience on many of the medium post connected to CafeSync, Given that it is a rather new addition not all medium blogs will be supported, but a great number of them should work.

WordPress

WordPress supports a very limited RSS feed creator "out of the box" however there are several third party plugins that can be added to create a stunning addition to your Card. Note the images below does not show these plugins.

Deviant Art

Slightly bugged but working you can show off your latest works with this plugin.

General RSS

If your blog or site contains an RSS feed but isn't one of the above services CafeSync can find and display any RSS feed that follows a similar standard to the ones above.

Online Stores

Etsy

Etsy's integration by far shows the true power of the plugin system. Not only can your card mention your craft but anyone that taps on your card will see your store as well as your prices. Tapping on the item will send them directly to your store.
