Hi Triode, thanks for following-up with me. I did look into this a bit and it appears that the Spotify desktop application uses Facebook's Open Graph API to make the updates. Updates made through Open Graph appear to be just HTTP POST - I can post something to my wall using curl on the command line. . . Spotify uses HTTPS for the entire transaction so capturing the traffic wasn't particularly useful. However, to have something like your plugin make an update to a specific application on Facebook, like Spotify, one would most likely need Spotify's Facebook access token in addition to the user's Facebook credentials. The latter is already available via SBS and it's own manual Facebook updates. The former is the real showstopper. I'm going to send a note to Spotify to see if there's any chance of them adding Facebook integration into the library they distribute to developers. In the meantime, I may put together a little proof of concept app to run on my SBS that takes whatever I'm listening to and posts it to my wall automatically, like Spotify does when not in Private Session mode. -- ajs - 2xSqueezebox3 + 1xSqueezebox Touch - Mac Pro 2x2.8GHz Quad-Core w/12GB RAM and OS X 10.6.8 - Synology DS1010+ running SSODS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ajs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22791 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
