So, finally I found some time to work on the site again! Here are the changes since the last update:


API (application programming interface)

I set up a little API so everyone can access the www.opkg.org database. The reason I did this was mainly because I am planning to create a repository soon. The API may help me there.
Furthermore I can imagine, that sooner or later someone wants to access the database and fetch out the data for her/his own project. (I would really appreciate that...)

You can find the API at this location: http://www.opkg.org/api.php

I think the syntax is described very well. If you have problems using it, feel free to drop me a line!


Repository

How I wrote in the upper paragraph, I will create a repository for www.opkg.org. I can't tell when it is released by now. But I hope that it will happen this year.


Minor Updates

Over the past few weeks I made some minor updates to the site (they were minor, because I don't remember all of them...). However, the most of the updates were introduced by some very nice people who wrote me their suggestions through the contact-form. I'd like to say thank you to all of them again.

A feature that soon will come is the ability to add a link to the source-code download-location for every package. And I am pretty sure, that I will have some more good ideas to work into the site.


Well, that's it for now. Feel free to send me all your ideas and suggestions through the contact-form. Thank you.

Regards,
Tobias
