Posting Entries Using Scripts

Post by brmeyer »

I am new to the Serendipity blog. I was wondering if it was possible to add new entries to my blog using a script that I custom wrote? I would like to format some XML and then add it to my blog using a Perl script. Can this be done? If so, how do I do it? Can I use the serendipity_xmlrpc.php script to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Bryan

Yes, Serendipity supports the XML-RPC API of Blogger and MoveableType. Depending on your XML, you will be able to make XMLRPC calls to insert it.

There are already a bunch of Perl-Tools supporting Blogger/MT-API to create entries, so that should also work out for you.

Have fun,
Garvin.
