Creating Features
From PokeTALK developers
Add your feature/application to PokeTALK
The PokeTALK API allows you to add on features to the PokeTALK site, for other users to enjoy. Every feature you create will be made available for all users in the Services Manager.
Getting Started
To get started you will need register your feature. Please send an email to developers@poketalk.com with the following information (this will be an automated procedure soon):
- Developer name (as you would like it to be seen by others)
- Icon URL (i.e http://www.poketalk.com/images/phone.png (16x16px PNG))
- Service Name (i.e "Call")
- Callback URL (i.e http://www.your-site.com/poketalk/feature_name/)
- Short Description (i.e "Add this service to allow you to xyz")
- Website (i.e www.your-site.com)
- Your PokeTALK username (i.e your email address)
Setting up
Once you've registered your information you'll receive an API Key from us for this specific feature. We'll add the feature to your services list so you'll be able to begin testing things out. Once a user clicks on your feature, PokeTALK will request the page located at the Callback URL which you've specified at registration. This needs to be a clean HTML page without the HEAD,BODY,or HTML tags included, for example the following would be acceptable:
<div> Hello world! </div>
The following would NOT be acceptable:
<html>
<head><title>not acceptable</title></head>
<body>
<div> Hello world! </div>
</body>
</html>The space you have available for the feature is 540px wide, and its recommended you use a max height of 400-500px.
