Usando la API: modulo moneytrackin para netvibes

May 25th, 2006 by admin

moneytrackin’ team is located in Girona, Spain. We’ll write in spanish from time to time. In case you don’t understand it, just ignore these posts ;)

Desfasado: Por favor usa el nuevo módulo mejorado Netvibes UWA UWA module

Edit: ***Resuelto*** Ver ésta otra entrada

Hay un problema con la autentificación del módulo. Tenemos una función javascript que encripta la password en el lado cliente antes de mandarla, y no está funcionando. Es posible que la gente de netvibes no permita ejecutar funciones propias de javascript para aumentar la seguridad. Les hemos escrito para ver si nos dan una solución, os lo haremos saber cuando obtengamos una respuesta.

Aquí tenemos un ejemplo del uso de la API pública de moneytrackin’, el módulo para netvibes. Podéis añadirlo a vuestra página especificando la url del módulo: http://www.moneytrackin.com/netvibes/

Nuestra API está basada en el estándar SOAP, de modo que acceder a sus métodos es tan sencillo como ésto:

// Inicializamos la conexión

$client = new SoapClient(“http://www.moneytrackin.com/api/wsdl/”);

// Y llamamos a cualquier método (definidos en la ayuda así como en el ‘endpoint’ wsdl)
try {
$result = $client->listProjects(
“usuario”,
“password”);
} catch (SoapFault $exception) {
echo “SOAP ERROR -> “.$exception->faultstring;
}

En éste ejemplo (y el módulo netvibes) hemos usado php5 y las extensiones que vienen con él (soap y simplexml), pero puede usarse php4 sin ningún problema con la librería gratuíta NuSOAP

Using the API: moneytrackin’ netvibes module example

May 24th, 2006 by admin

Deprecated: Please use the new improved Netvibes UWA module

Edit: *** Solved *** See this post

There is a problem with the user/password auth’ing. We have a javascript function that encrypts the password on the client side before send it, and it’s not working right now. Maybe netvibes wanted to increase the security by not allowing javascript execution at all. We have mailed them and let you know then it’s solved.

Here we’ll present a working example of the moneytrackin’ public API, the netvibes module. You can add it to your netvibes’ page from this URL: http://www.moneytrackin.com/netvibes/

Our API is bases on the SOAP standard, so accessing their methods is just as easy as this:

// Initialize the connection

$client = new SoapClient(“http://www.moneytrackin.com/api/wsdl/”);

// And call a method (defined on the help sectio as well as on the wsdl endpoint)
try {
$result = $client->listProjects(
“username”,
“password”);
} catch (SoapFault $exception) {
echo “SOAP ERROR -> “.$exception->faultstring;
}

Note that we are using php5 (soap and simplexml extensions), but you can also get it working on php4 with the NuSOAP free library

public API released

May 24th, 2006 by admin

moneytrackin API provides methods for developers to embed our data into their own applications, for example in a smartphone app or a PDA (currently under development).

The wsdl endpoint for our API is http://www.moneytrackin.com/api/wsdl/ or https://www.moneytrackin.com/api/wsdl/ if you want to use secure http.

Important notes :

- This API is still under development, so the methods could change without notice. Visit this page for updated info
- It’s based on SOAP & WSDL standards
- All passwords must be sent to the server encrypted with the MD5 algorithm
- Please wait at least one second between queries. There isn’t any restriction yet, but we’ll take measures in case of abuse (like banning you or adding a license key for developers).

Functions (visit the official API reference for updated info):

- listTransactions
- listTagTransactions
- listProjects
- listWriteProjects
- getBalance
- getTags
- newProject
- deleteProject
- insertTransaction
- deleteTransaction
- listCurrencies
- userData

Edit: take a look at this post for a working example

First update - http secure support

May 16th, 2006 by admin

Https support was something we had in mind before, as privacy and security are top priorities for us.

But we left that for another day, until a few minutes ago when Diego warned us about the risks of clear communication, more pronounced when working with such sensible data, so we decided to activate it today. Diego has also been the first one to link to us (spanish only, sorry)

Now anyone can access moneytrackin’ from:

If you enter through the no-ssl direction, this warning message will be showed up in the home page:
