    Hi everyone,

    a REST API for OpenSong is on the way. This is great and already available in
    a beta version.

    I thought of developing a remote control app with PhoneGap (Apache Cordova).
    This app could then run on iOS, Android and other mobile platforms with using
    web technology.

    If you are interested in helping out please reply to this thread or drop me a
    mail at

    iOpenSongs@boehrnsen.de

    or tweet me at @deepflame

    Looking forward
    Andreas

    Great idea! :)

    I have this idea since start of API development, but I never got to actually
    kickstart it. So count me in. At least for solving API issues on the OpenSong
    host side.

    The API information can be found here:
    http://opensong.org/d/api

    Thanks vwout!

    I was playing with the REST API on the weekend a bit. It is a great start but
    showing the raw text of a song was not working e.g.
    No problem, this is a beta :)

    I downloaded RealStudio again and can help fixing it first.

    Regards
    Andreas

    What URL did you use? HTTP or WebSocket?

    I checked the API, implementation and results.
    The documented call to get the full song data is: /song//identifier
    Where <identifier> is the song name (get it using /song/list) and <name> the
    optional folder name.

    While checking, this returns the song xml, both in HTTP and Websocket.
    Note that if you leave out 'detail', you must keep the slashes, thus use
    /song//identifier, note the two slashes after song. I admit that is confusing.
    I'll check the impact of not having to use these two slashes - or is there a
    different issue that I missed?
