Re: twitter authorizing in BGT?
What is the problem of using a web language like php to communicate with apis besides the need to have a hosting server?
there are many many problems. one of them is maintaining that php or that kind of script.
another is bandwidth limit.
the third problem is that if the api that you are calling has limits for example 10 in a minute and 30 clients request your script which requests that api, that api will ban the ip address of your host.
should i tell you more problems beside all of these?
additionally, keep denial of service (dDos) in mind.
Particularly I think the best option when the idea is to use languages limited in functions and resources, as is the case with bgt. There are many other scripting languages that are even more limited.
you are true, but these languages are not made for these features in mind and they are not good at performing these tasks.
you require lots of twicking and lots of boilerplate code in other languages to achieve that goal.
If the problem is the apis, any of them can break (stop working), regardless of any more modern language or some other method.
thats a different matter. if that happens, your php script will break as well, so your bgt client (as what happened to the translation service that i've made for bgt).
Finally, PHP has functions for parsing json, such as turning it into an object and vice versa.
so, what does it provide for bgt?
weather you want or not, you have to write code in these languages in a way that you can parse from bgt.
