From Del.icio.us to Subtext

I was seeing at other RSS’ that I subscribed to. What ever you bookmark with Delicious is becoming a daily blog entry. Setup is quite easy. Login to your del.icio.us account and go to Settings/Blogging/Daily Blog Posting and set it up. Here is an excerpt from del.icio.us about the parameters:

  • job_name is the name for your posting “thingy”, which can be anything
  • out_name is the login name you use for your blog
  • out_pass is the password you use for your blog
  • out_url is the full URL of the XML-RPC interface for your blog, which probably ends in something like mt-xmlrpc.cgi
  • out_time is the hour (from 0-23 in GMT) to post your links at every day
  • out_blog_id is your blog ID number (which is probably 1 if you have only one blog)
  • out_cat_id is optional: the category ID number in your blog where you’d like to put these posts

The out_url for Subtext would be:

//services/metablogapi.aspx”>http://<your host>/<your blog>/services/metablogapi.aspx

But it doesn’t work with our implementation of MetaWeblog API. I am getting this error message:

results:Running at Tue Mar 11 03:37:17 2008 GMT<br>Fetched 1 items.<br>metaWeblog.newPost fault was: request contains int value where boolean expected [request : parameter 5]<br>

It is still an experimental feature. Even the out_pass field is not masked. The fifth parameter is the “publish” parameter where it accepts a boolean on the NewPost method of Meta Weblog API. I have checked the API implementation and it looks like we have implemented it correctly.

Any Subtexters managed to get this thingy working?
