With this addon to Friendika you can give your user the possibility to post
|
||
|
their public messages to any StatusNet instance like identi.ca for example. The
|
||
|
messages will be strapped their rich context and shortened to to the character
|
||
|
limit of the StatusNet instance in question if necessary. If shortening of the
|
||
|
message was performed a link will be added to the notice pointing to the
|
||
|
original message on your server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There is a similar plugin to forward public messages to Twitter Twitter Plugin.

|
___ Requirements ___
|
||
|
|
||
|
Due to the distributed nature of the StatusNet network, each user who wishes to
|
||
|
forward public messages to a StatusNet account has get the OAuth credentials
|
||
|
for themselves, which makes this addon a little bit more user unfriendly then
|
||
|
the Twitter Plugin is. Nothing to geeky though!
|
||
|
|
||
|
The inclusion of a shorturl for the original posting in cases when the message
|
||
|
was longer then the maximal allowed notice length requires it, that you have
|
||
|
PHP5+ and curl on your server.
|
||
|
Where to find
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the Friendika git repository /addon/statusnet/, this directory contains all
|
||
|
required PHP files (including the Twitter OAuth library [1] by Abraham Williams,
|
||
|
MIT licensed and the Slinky library [2] by Beau Lebens, BSD license), a CSS file
|
||
|
for styling of the user configuration and an image to Sign in with StatusNet.

|
||
|
___ Configuration ___
|
||
|
|
||
|
__ Global Configuration __
|
||
|
|
||
|
To activate this addon add statusnet to the list of active addons in your
|
||
|
.htconfig.php file
|
||
|
$a->config['system']['addon'] = "statusnet, ...".
|
||
|
|
||
|
__ User Configuration __
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the addon is activated the user has to aquire three things in order to
|
||
|
connect to the StatusNet account of choice.
|
||
|
* the base URL for the StatusNet API, for identi.ca this is
|
||
|
https://identi.ca/api/
|
||
|
* OAuth Consumer key & secret
|
||
|
|
||
|
To get the OAuth Consumer key pair the user has to (a) ask her Friendika admin
|
||
|
if a pair already exists or (b) has to register the Friendika server as a
|
||
|
client application on the StatusNet server. This can be done from the account
|
||
|
settings under "Connect -> Connections -> Register an OAuth client application
|
||
|
-> Register new application".
|
||
|
|
||
|
During the registration of the OAuth client remember the following:
|
||
|
* there is no callback url
|
||
|
* register a desktop client
|
||
|
* with read & write access
|
||
|
* the Source URL should be the URL of your Friendika server
|
||
|
|
||
|
After the required credentials for the application are stored in the
|
||
|
configuration you have to actually connect your Friendika account with
|
||
|
StatusNet. To do so follow the Sign in with StatusNet button, allow the access
|
||
|
and copy the security code into the addon configuration. Friendika will then
|
||
|
try to acquire the final OAuth credentials from the API, if successful the
|
||
|
addon settings will allow you to select to post your public messages to your
|
||
|
StatusNet account.
