Title:
Recent changes in Foursquare's API result in plugin failing to parse
results
Status in Gwibber:
Confirmed
Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “gwibber” source package in Precise:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Impact:
Foursquare recently introduced a website redesign, with accompanying
changes in their API. As a result of this, the Foursquare plugin can
no longer parse results correctly and wll not display any.
Test case:
ensure the gwibber-service process has been restarted since apply the
update then verify foursquare check-ins are showing up in your stream.
Regression potential:
There isn't really any regression potential, since foursquare changed
the API without this change it isn't working at all.
---
The 'canonicalurl' key has been removed from the API result.
Currently, the plugin uses this to determine the sender url. Instead,
the user id must be used to construct an sender url.
