I haven't written up a wiki page for this yet, but I'd like to get
some feedback if possible:
Tag Data API
Make tag statistics data available via a simple XML format so that
other applications can access our tag data.
New URIs proposed:
/roller-services/tagdata - get tag data for entire site
/roller-services/tagdata/weblogs/[handle] - get tag data for specific weblog
Request parameters supported by URIs:
sort - either "alphabetical" or "popularity"
Tag data format (application/xml+tagdata) could be something like this:
<tags>
<tag name="bluenote" count="24" />
<tag name="rocksteady" count="349" />
<tag name="ska" count="349" />
. . .
<link rel="next"
href="http://localhost:8080/roller/roller-services/tagdata?page=2"; />
</tags>
As in Atom protocol, the <link> element is used to support next/previous paging.
