GNOME Do del.icio.us Plugin
February 3, 2008Another GNOME Do plugin, this time for searching del.icio.us bookmarks. I continue to find excuses to play around with C# rather than doing my civics homework , but hey – what good is being a second semester senior if not for indulging indulging in little programming projects?
Source, compilation instructions and a precompiled library are in the tarball. As this uses the same sketchy gconf authorization system as the Twitter plugin, I would again recommend checking the readme so that you know how to pass it your login.

You need to find something better to do in your time or write it faster like
using python to print them to the good ol’ sexy terminal.
re.findall(Bookmarks) is amazing

I’m mostly doing this to fiddle around with C#, but I’ve actually found GNOME Do incredibly useful – I have a terminal open all the time as it is, but the Do system is actually faster and more flexible for little jobs like this.

Nice! And what a great screenshot!

Cool, that’s a great feature.
One other thing, I love your wordpress theme – have you considered releasing it to the public?

The code is now in launchpad, correct?
I think I’ll write a patch to call posts/all less often. The current delay is ok with gnome-do alone, but I end up banned from API access when I have other apps that use the API running. del.icio.us is definitely vague on what they accept, but OTOH they ban hard.

Code is indeed in LP (at least it was the last time I checked which was some time ago). Patches greatly appreciated as I’ve started college now and this plugin could use a little love.

Nice plugin, but it doesn’t seem to work behind an (authenticating) web proxy. The configuration stuff validates my delicious login ok, but when I try to search I get:
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.CheckFinalStatus (System.Net.WebAsyncResult result) [0x00000]
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.SetResponseData (System.Net.WebConnectionData data) [0x00000]
- but the “see everyone’s” option that is then displayed, works just fine.

I’m not developing this plugin myself anymore–it’s been moved into the main gnome-do plugin repository at Launchpad. I’m pretty sure the SSL error is fixed there.
If you want the latest version of the code, check out https://launchpad.net/do-plugins
