DESCRIPTION

This module takes advantage of the extensive xmlrpc interface provided by public Bookmarks servers and allows registered users to interact with the site just as they would normally.

The Bookmarks XMLRPC API dicates that all user based functionality requires an authkey provided by the server during the login call. In the METHODS section each item will state if it requires an authkey.

NOTE

This is a beta version of the module with very few of the API functions implimented. Please make note of this for future releases.

METHODS

batchurl

This function allows users to do batch lookups of urls. By passing along an array of urls it will return a hash of urls, having keys as the place of the url in the passed array, with information on the url.
