Enunciate powers Hi5 API Server

| | TrackBacks (0)
As you know by now, Hi5 supports widgets from Slide and Rock You.  To accomplish this integration we wrote a completely new software platform.  The end result is http://api.hi5.com/.  The software that makes it possible is called Enunciate.

Enunciate Site Enunciate is an open-source toolkit that generates a complete interoperable system for providing Web Services.  It does this by allowing you to place metadata and documentation about your desired services directly in your code. Invoking the enunciate compiler generates a complete web site with documentation, server endpoints, and client libraries.

We're using the following features now:

  • REST endpoints for Widgets, Feeds, and Authentication.
  • SOAP support, including generated SOAP client libraries.
  • JSON output support.
  • Full documentation coming direct from the code.
Hi5 sponsored much of the work for Enunciate 1.3 and will continue to work with the primary author and community to improve and extend the Enunciate code.  The roadmap has a number of exciting features that you will soon see on the Hi5 API server.

We welcome you to participate in the future of Hi5 API development.  You can join our new Hi5 API group where you can ask questions and keep abreast of the latest news.
