Basecamp: New Info From 37 Signals

Josh Pratt — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 21:28:09 +0000

I was able to get in contact with a developer from 37 Signals over the weekend. I ran into some troubles finding a solid way to process the responses when you post, get, or put data to/from the Basecamp API. Turns out, the documentation is out-dated, and there are some known inconsistencies.

So – now knowing some crucial information “from the horse’s mouth”, I know now how to properly process the responses. This will be implemented in version 1.2. I’ll keep you posted!

Basecamp API: PHP Class – Version 1.1 Released

Josh Pratt — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 04:45:00 +0000

Version 1.1 is now released. Please check out the Basecamp PHP Class page for new documentation and download information.

There were a lot of changes, new methods (including file attachments), and bug fixes in 1.1. There’s still a lot of work to do, but I like to get it out into the user’s hands for feedback and bug-tracking. If you are noticing something that isn’t working, or is glitchy, first check the method documentation within the class itself to make sure you are using it correction, then if it still isn’t working right – please let me know! (Post a comment here).

I may have easily incorrectly documented something, or forgot to make changes. I ran out of time this evening and had to rush through it. So, please keep that in mind!

I am very open to making quick changes/fixes and releases. One of the best ways to contact me is through AIM (“creativearcjosh”). Feel free to hop on and ask questions or make suggestions if I’m online.

I want to make this PHP class good, and solid. So – I love the feedback and suggestions. Keep them coming!

Basecamp API: PHP Class – Version 1.0 Launched

The time has come to launch version 1.0 of my Basecamp PHP Class. It’s by no means complete, but it does a majority of the main core features. So, instead of sitting on it for a while, I figured that it was best to launch it early and keep building upon it (hoping too that I will receive more feedback on it).

So, please check it out on the Basecamp API PHP Class page. I whipped together a quick documentation page as well listing how to use the core methods, as well as a bunch of the simple set and get public methods.
