Thumper: a photo and YouTube aggregator for Rails
Posted by hardwarehank, Sat Feb 17 12:55:35 UTC 2007
I made a project today. It’s called Thumper. All you have to do is post a special string to a url, and it does all the work. Catalog those cool images and videos.
It’s available in https://modzer0.cs.uaf.edu/repos/hank/code/ruby/thumper
It’s very simple to use. You run it anywhere, and make requests like this:
# Makes a new YouTube video
curl -i -X POST -d "video[code]=IsyWlcQAy-Q" http://server/youtube/new
curl -i -X POST -d "photo[url]=http://www.ipnlighting.com/images/wasted.jpg" http://server/pics/new
Voila! Thumper lives!
