Done so far:

  • Updated JSON object to become SpaceAPI 0.13 compliant (see status.php)
    • Content type and Cache-Control headers are now sent
    • Now uses location object
    • Now uses state object
    • Space state now has a third state; null. (In case of uncertain state)

}
  • Uploaded it to https://ackspace.nl/status.php but the URL can be changed if necessary..
  • From the SpaceAPI website: "In order to be able to retrieve the object from within a javascript sandbox, the server of the JSON object should set the ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header with a value of ‘*’ ".
  • Added the JSON object to the existing Space state PHP script. Thanks CoolePascal for the help with the PHP stuff!

To do list: (Optional)

  • I created and uploaded really simple open & closed icons so they won't give HTTP 404 errors, improved icons are welcome! -- Vicarious 12:37, 9 December 2011 (CET)
  • From the SpaceAPI website: "Additionally, it might be beneficial to add a ‘Cache-Control’ header with a value of ‘no-cache’, to prevent browser caches from retaining old data." Done.
