Drupal iPhone Appers - Take a look at this link

Thanks for visiting! I really appreciated the comments.

I found a great tutorial which may help you out.
Check out Integrate Drupal with iPhone

This really seems to be a helpful lead. I was able to download his iPhone app example. (You need to use git) and upload the various modules to my drupal website.

I almost got it working. I can get nodes to load, but the OAuth part isn't.

Using the Rest Server with OAuth, I think will be a great way of authenticating and even uploading files images etc.

I'll post more when I get this working...
Thanks again!

Drupal for Iphone app - Source code

This is for Peter and anyone else who is trying to use Drupal with their iPhone using XMLRPC.

Drupal for Iphone App
Here are some brief notes.

Make sure to upload drupal's Services modules and set the module permissions.

I added a Settings Bundle for the iPhone app.
For the URL put http://somedrupalwebsite.com/services/xmlrpc
Put in your drupal username and password

Then goto the App.
Click Login
Down in the Results screen. You should see xml code.
If you don't see errors then you're fine.
For the content field, put in a content type, blog, page, whatever.
Put in a title and body and hit submit.
You should see a confirmation as xml code in the result field.
The camera button and the Tab bar controller don't work.
If you want your user picture to show up then change the code in MyViewController.

I think that's about it.
Please post back here and let me know if you try my code out.

Cheers!
Daniel

Progress on Drupal for Iphone App


Well, I've made a good deal of progress. I'm also having a lot of fun playing with Xcode and Objective C. I added a settings bundle and had the app access those settings. Just a few minutes ago, I figured out how to load a user's profile image from the drupal website! I added a tab bar, but I'm still figuring that out. Anyways, Loads of fun...Check it out.

Drupal for iPhone app


So I've been programming a Drupal for iPhone app using XMLRPC. I got it working, yeh!

It's a little rough around the edges but things users can do so far...
- Input any drupal website. The drupal services module needs to be installed. Well at least I haven't tested it without the services module. The session module needs sessid checked.

- Login with your drupal username/password.

- Post a title and story to your drupal website.

- Logout.

- The list of features I want to add is pretty long, but at least this basic part is working.
