I have a C++ application that uses curl to go to log in to a website, get information, and then parse the information. Now I want to send myself an alert to my phone via sms or e-mail or I can I also send the alert to twitter and then get a notification that way.
My environment is windows vista and I use MSVS 8.
I just need something easy that i can throw together quick to notify myself when something on the webpage changes.
If there's anything that will work with curl (POST/GET), even better because I am already familiar with that.
thanks!
Twitcurl provides a Twitter API on top of cURL.

Is there an open source project that deals with basic reporting functionality for Mailgun. All I want to do is download my permanent failures and export to a human readable file. Mailgun has an API that I can write code for that but I would like to avoid reinventing the wheel.
See github.com/kehers/suet (disclaimer: I built this). It gives you a detailed analytics dashboard and breakdown of email performance, users, mails and feeds. You can also connect Slack and get complaints, bounces and failures send to a channel.
A managed version is available at suet.co
i have made a python desktop app which takes voice commands now i want to present it via Skype to someone and so i want the people to hear the response , is there a way to do it, so that everyone on the call can hear the response and give voice command to it..
Currently there is no way to present content through the Skype Web SDK. This might be something we add in a future release.
I want to make an extension for Chrome that customers have to enter their username and password. Then after that they can view their account information by the extension instead of log in to website.
But firstly I'm beginner in developing Chrome extension then after I read some articles about it, now I don't know Where I can start?
Secondly my big problem is using web service in my extension because I have to get customer user/pass and send them to my web service (.net) to get information.
I appreciate you if you give me your ideas/sample code/tutorial/...
But firstly I'm beginner in developing Chrome extension then after I read some articles about it, now I don't know Where I can start?
Start from hello worlds, of course. I would recommend refreshing your knowledge of HTML/CSS and Javascript, as Chrome extensions are essentially local web pages.
But before you dive into new technology, think if you really need to do this as a Chrome extension. Maybe a simple set of webpages will be a better (and cross-browser) choice? Do you really need chrome.* API? Maybe you can share some additional details, like why did you decide to go with Chrome extension in the first place.
I have recently found those two look-alike solutions/IDE for cross-mobile development: Appcelerator and Rhomobile (I know there are more) and I have questions regarding those two platform:
1) I believe the only way to build the view is using HTML, which I like alot the ideas. But, does that mean the application itself isn't available if the mobile is offline?
2) Do you guys know if it's possible to publish the application to the App Store and Google Store?
3) Are there any simulator for different mobile and do they support all those slide/tab events?
4) And finally, are there a way to transfert the App on your mobile phone without having to publish it anywhere.
Please note that I have no knowledge at all about mobile app dev and those two solutions (Appcelerator, Rhomobile) would be perfect for me as I am familiar with Javascript and HTML.
Thank you!
Ok I have only used appcelerator but:
1) a webview is like a browser without the address bar, it simply parses HTML, where it gets it from is up to you. If you write the HTML and pass in a file well then yes it can be offline, if it is used to parse a response from a webpage well then no as it needs to send a http request to the webpage.
As many people seem to mistake (for a reason unknown to me as all the documentation states other wise), appcelerator is not the same as phonegap, appcelerator uses its own javascript based API to allow developers to make native apps, it is NOT a webview wrapper. It is offline by default and allows you to send http requests if you need something online.
2) yes you can publish to the app store and the google store from appcelerator, the documentation walks you through the process.
3) Appcelerator requires you to download either the IOS sdk or Android SDK which come with simulators, appcelerator / the emulators support the standard events found on these devices.
4) With Android to can build a .apk file and distribute however you wish, with IOS the only way is to publish to the app store. the only other way is to make a mobile website instead of an application
Has anyone had any luck using ColdFusion as a way to collect data via streaming APIs?
i.e. - https://dev.twitter.com/docs/streaming-api
I know the best option is to use an app that literally sits on the server monitoring these portals. Just curious if anyone has done anything using CF yet.
Aaron Longnion built refynr.com using CF9. It's a service that collects users' Twitter streams based on supplied criteria. I imagine he's down something like you describe.
However, I'd look into the new web socket functionality built into ColdFusion 10 and see if that makes consuming streaming APIs any easier.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/coldfusion10/
If you know a bit of Java, it may not be too difficult to use Twitter4J, and build an event gateway for your CF app to consume the stream.
If you want to go the web socket route, see: Twitter + HTML5 webSocket API
