Version 0.1

• Initial Release
• Added a basic implementation of all key App.net objects.

1. Authenticate first to ensure you have an access_token
2. Get Rapptor.Api from NuGet
3. Initialize an instance of the appropriate API service while passing it an IApiCaller (e.g. TokenService(new RestSharpApiCaller(access_token)))
4. Call the appropriate API method (e.g. tokenService.RetriveCurrentTokenInfo();)

1. Create a new Annotation
2. Set it's Type equal to the reversed url of your choice
3. Set it's Value property to whatever class/value you want (Annotations are limited to 8k)
4. Add your new Annotation to a List<Annotation>
5. Create a new CreatePostRequest and set it's Annotations property to your List<Annotation
6. Call postService.CreatePost with your CreatePostRequest
7. Call postService.Get(postId) to retrieve your post with its new annotation.

NOTE: Some Types are reserved, see the API for more information: https://github.com/appdotnet/api-spec/blob/master/annotations.md

Annotations Example

var annotationValue = new MyAnnotationClass
				            {
					            Name = "My test parameter annotation"
								, Value = 23.5M
				            };
var annotation = new Annotation
				        {
					        Type = "net.raptorapp.test.request.parameter"
							, Value = annotationValue
				        };

var createPostRequest = new CreatePostRequest
{
	Text = @"@jdscolam this is another #Rapptor #testpost, with links and stuff.  https://github.com/jdscolam/Rapptor and Rapptor NuGet"
	, ReplyTo = "197934"
	, Annotations = new List<Annotation> { annotation }
};

var myNewPost = postService.CreatePost(createPostRequest);

1. Get Rapptor.Authorization from NuGet
2. Initialize an instance of the AuthorizationService passing in the appropriate parameters
3. Subscribe to the AccessResponseReceived event (or provide a callback to the RetrieveAccessToken(...) call)
4. Call authorizationService.ConnectToClearingHouse();
5. Call authorizationService.RetriveAccessToken();
6. Enjoy!

NOTE: Authentication will open a browser window in another process so the user can authorize the application on App.net!

Example from AuthorizationSpec.cs

var scopes = new List<Scope>
				          {
					          Scope.Stream
					          , Scope.Email
					          , Scope.WritePost
					          , Scope.Follow
					          , Scope.Messages
					          , Scope.Export
				          };

var authorizationService = new AuthorizationService(CLEARING_HOUSE_ADDRESS, CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, scopes);

authorizationService.AccessResponseReceived += accessResponse =>
{
	myAccessToken = accessResponse.AccessToken;
};

authorizationService.ConnectToClearingHouse();
authorizationService.RetriveAccessToken();

1. Get Rapptor.Domain from NuGet
2. Add using Rapptor.Domain; to your class
3. Use the included classes when interfacing with the App.net API

1. User
2. Description
3. Counts
4. IEntity (Mentions, Hashtags, Links)
5. Post
6. Source
7. Filter

1. Ideas on implementing core annotations without required Json.Net type information.
2. Any suggestions on how to avoid showing a browser for authentication.
3. Any thoughts on cleaning up current code as it stands.
4. Ideas on Filters, Streams, and Subscriptions implementation.

1. More API calls as they are delivered by App.net team
2. Async authorization calls
3. Example app
4. Further RapptorMods as well
