MapKit
- add a map control to the view and add annotations with custom images
- message to card when a user clicks on an annotation callout
- show,hide user’s current location
- set zoom level of the map
- center on location
What else would we want?

1. Add a silent mode for the tweet external so we can wrap our own UI around it.
2. MapKit would be awesome. I’m doing an app that uses Google Maps API and I’d love more control and functionality e.g. track location

Sharekit- Facebook, Twitter and other services. Offline support https://getsharekit.com/

cheers

On second thoughts, an external for Facebook might be better than my suggestion above, now that you have Twitter support.

Yep, I’ve looked at ShareKit and and have it on the poll. There’s a fairly big issue with it’s design for implementing it as an external in that the API keys are defined constants. That will mean I’ll need to modify the project so those API keys are supplied some other way (maybe custom properties?) so that will cause maintenance issues I think. I’m looking into it

Hmm… what about AddThis:

Impressive feature set. the name says it: Add This!
One can imagine mainstream apps built with livecode and a couple of your externals.

This could be a way to add VoIP/telephony to Livecode apps.

I’ve contacted AddThis because their license would appear to prohibit my re-distribution of their sdk as it only allows use for building an app. Twilio could be similar but I’ll need to investigate. There is also voice chat in the GameKit framework.

The mergAV extension is very interesting. However, an extension to stream video from iOS devices to a server Streaming (i.e. Wowza) would be great.
All the best

Can you cobble up something so that we can call camera services from within our own native UI? The pop-up bit is just unacceptable. Or is this a fix that’s underway already at runrev?

Monte Goulding

Paolo, can you point me at any frameworks or sdks for that?

Bryan, yes you can do all sorts of things with the AV framework and I plan on more which is why I called it mergAV rather than mergPickVideo. Just like in mergZXing where you can show the video preview in a rect on your stack I plan to add that for mergAV and you will be able to start/stop recording or take a photo. To get some basic functionality out there though I’ve only implemented the standard video picker so far. I’d be surprised if RunRev had a control like that on their short term hit list but they don’t publish roadmaps anymore so I’m not sure.
