Feature: Add support for XMLRPC -> Micropub

Open cleverdevil opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

Silo.pub makes it very easy to use Micropub clients to publish to XMLRPC endpoints. The reverse would also be quite useful, as there are a large number of clients out there that support XMLRPC.

I imagine the user interaction would be:

  1. User authenticates with silo.pub and their Micropub-compatible website, which provides silo.pub with a token that can be used for publishing.

  2. User requests XMLRPC credentials from silo.pub through the UI, which are mapped to the Micropub token from above.

  3. Client software can now be pointed at silo.pub as an XMLRPC endpoint, using the provided credentials. XMLRPC requests will be translated into Micropub equivalents, and passed through to the Micropub server.

Is this something that would be considered as an addition to silo.pub? If so, how can I help?
