I am new to the Google Base Data API. I have been developing Software since 1967 and am interested in using my Macbook Pro to develop/test the API. I set up a local host on my machine but cannot register it as a certified domain in Manage Accounts/Manage Domains.
My question: Is Goggle going to provide a straight-forward simple testing environment. It seems that you must have a registered domain, then you must set up live data, etcetera. I tried implementing the simple recipe demo.php and after setting up the localhost, obtaining a key, obtaining tokens I was unable to add any recipes. The whole process seems to very complicated when all one wants to do is test various functions of the API. Things would be much simpler if localhost's could be registered and dummy sample data was available. I was able to set up the YouTubeVideoBrowser without any problems, but found that I must have videos to upload to test the YouTubeVideoAPI, so again a simpler testing environment would be useful. Also, I found it counter-intuitive to have to register an application when I am interested in developing an application. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Base Data API" group.
