New Client Libraries for HeyWatch

We’ve released several client libraries in the last few days.

• Ruby: http://github.com/particles/heywatch-ruby
• Python: http://github.com/particles/heywatch-python
• PHP: http://github.com/particles/heywatch-php (by madewithlove)
• .NET: http://github.com/particles/heywatch-dotnet

NodeJS, Java and iOS will come soon.

Note that the ruby lib is a complete rewrite of the old gem and it’s not compatible. Also this release is a bit special because the new gem provides a command line interface (CLI) to manage all your videos, jobs, etc… In other words everything on HeyWatch.

Usage: heywatch RESOURCE:METHOD [ID] [parameter1=value1 parameter2=value2 ...]

    Resources:

      account       # account information
      video         # manage video         | all, info, delete, count, bin            
      encoded_video # manage encoded video | all, info, delete, count, bin, jpg       
      download      # manage download      | all, info, delete, count, create         
      job           # manage job           | all, info, delete, count, create         
      format        # manage format        | all, info, delete, count, create, update 

    Usage:

      heywatch account
      heywatch video:info 123456
      heywatch job:all
      heywatch download:create url=http://site.com/video.mp4 title=mytitle

Don’t hesitate to fork those libraries on github to improve / fix them. If you’ve wrote a lib yourself, please let us know so we can add it to the list.
