Hi, i was wondering if there is a .NET client libary available for the rest api's?

Let's write one!

Nice.  Have you seen this? http://www.codeplex.com/OpenSocial 

Thank You for noting that!

 I will check it out.

Here's a simple tutorial on how to make rest calls from .NET

http://developer.yahoo.com/dotnet/howto-rest_cs.html

We'll be posting documentation on this soon...

Have you guys seen Google's .NET library? http://code.google.com/p/google-gdata/  It is really tight.  In fact, the project I mentioned earlier swiped some of its ATOM code from that library.  It would make sense to extend the work they've already done for this project.  I really like the way that code handles namespace extensions and new providers, very well factored.  As such, once the MySpace Rest APIs are little better documented, shouldn't be too hard...

ya, gdata doesn't support the myspace rest api right now ... but viphak said it was in development so I guess myspace will probably come out with their own .NET client libraries

I have a project that will be starting on www.codeplex.com shortly. I've just finished completing the intial authentication process with the REST API , and now I'll be writing up the class library over the next couple of days.

I don't think it will take much longer than a week to get the initial version with most of the calls in place. As soon as I have something usable I'll post the link up so everyone can access it.

Thanks,

Joseph

viphak, do you have any idea how long it might take for myspace to release a .NET client library?  a few weeks? a few months?  ...  because I'm thinking of writing my own but I don't want to reinvent the wheel if it's around the corner

Hi Everyone,

     I've posted up the class library that I have written against the Myspace REST API's. You access and read more information about it on http://www.codeplex.com/myspacetoolkit.

Download it, check it out and discuss it and let me know what you think. Additionally, feel free to send me a message if you would like to join on as a developer for the project.

I see this project continue to evolve along with the MDP. Currently, I haven't implemented any parsing routines for the responses, but I will be doing this shortly. I just wanted to get this out there as quickly as possible to allow for other .NET developers to access the functionality.

Please remember that this is pretty beta and I am sure that there will be exceptions that occur.

Thanks!

bump...

Any feedback everyone?

Thanks!

looks good, i'm already using it in an application and seems to be pretty stable .. thanks

I can't get the any of the examples you give to work. Do you have any more detailed instructions on getting it up and running?
