Readernaut API

I'm going to be deprecating the current Readernaut API in favor of a newer more built-out version. People using the current version have two weeks to switch over to the new API. Currently you can find your API_KEY by viewing source on any page and searching for "api_key" in the output (this will get better later). Here are some example endpoints:

Notes

• Old: /services/api/USERNAME/notes/
• New: /api/v1/notes/note/?username=YOUR_USERNAME&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user__username=USERNAME

Books

• Old: /services/api/nathan/readerbooks/
• New: /api/v1/readerbooks/readerbook/?username=YOUR_USERNAME&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user__username=USERNAME

Goals

• Old: /services/api/nathan/goals/
• New: /api/v1/goals/goal/?username=YOUR_USERNAME&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user__username=USERNAME

Progress

• Old: /services/api/nathan/progress/
• New: /api/v1/goals/progress/?username=YOUR_USERNAME&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user__username=USERNAME

This new API is built with Tastypie, if you're interested in what you can do with it you can read over Daniel's documentation.

Why tastiepy > piston? https://bitbucket.org/jespern/django-piston/wiki/Home

Just curious.

I prefer Tastypie's declarative syntax but I have used Piston in a while. I also know Daniel and can bug him when I have questions :)

Would like to be able to update my progress, from within a mobile application for example.

Is this API currently supposed to be working? Using my api_key and username I just get 404s from the Readernaut site. :(

Hi.how can I get an api key?
