Splitting up ActionStreams

Vote 0 Votes

Hi, Wonderful stuff. :) I was hoping to use ActionStreams as the aggregator for "planet me" (well not me, client Joi) and then split the streams out into separate widgets/modules. i.e.: I'd like to group the display of his del.icio.us tags, group his tweets, etc, into separate views. I can't seem to find an example or documentation to do this so I suspect it's not possible? Yet? :D

I also tried going directly into the DB to pull out the data myself with a PHP script but the meat is stored in a BLOB.. which I can't seem to do anything with.:'(

any tips/hope?

thnx!

  • It's all in there and perfectly possible (if you haven't worked it out already).

    You can modify the ActionStreams tag with the following:

    service="delicious" - would show just del.icio.us links service="twitter" - just tweets

    also you can filter by type, e.g.:

    stream="links" - would show all link actions, del.icio.us, google reader etc stream="photos" - just photo based links.

    So the "service" attribute filters it down to a specific web service, however the "stream" attribute filters all similar actions.

    You use the attributes in a similar way to the Entries tag. i.e.:

  • Thanks Richard for the heads up. Back in April when i posted this it was not possible. I haven't been watching closely and I was told directly by 6A that they were planning to make that work so .. yeah. Glad it's in there now! Yay! Thnx again :)
