You wil get plenty of chance to use API’s later in the second set of ZIplines

Maciej Bembenista

@macbem

What API should I use to tweet a quote?

The rest will be a breeze, I guess

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

try https://dev.twitter.com/web/intents
don’t get involved with twitter’s little icon and it’s iframe… that way lies death. The solution is just one or two lines. Use your own icon.

@macbem

thanks a bunch, @mutantspore

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

yes I did

basically you just need an icon with this in it href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Hello%20world” and you use JS to change the text data

@amirghafouri how’s your issue going? is there a pen to look at?

I messed around with the fill effect (width instead of height), and it was working.

Started messing around with the decTime function to change session types and it stopped working

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

well when the timer is not greater than zero you need to swap to the “other” timer value. To keep track of which you should be counting down, I used a “flag” called timerType.
for example.
if (timerType == 'session') { …. and in that if I set things up for the break time, cleared the clock face, sounded the alarm and changed the flag to be timerType = “break”. So obviously if the timerType was “break” i’d do a similar thing but for the session values. there is no need to actually stop the timer … just change the values. You only really need to stop it for “stop” or “reset” or maybe “pause"

looking for help with the keydown event handler on my app... the green square is not supposed to move in a direction past a walll but it does somehow position itself past the wall (but only in the logic not the div) http://codepen.io/gr4vy/pen/ZQqmBx

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

@gr4vy You’ll most likely get help for that project in the Data Visualization help room

@max77p

can someone help me out with my jquery...i am not sure if my animated bounce is working in this case

http://codepen.io/max77p/pen/NxOVEG

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

@max77p ? “by Shan” bounces when the page loads

@max77p you will also probably have to add in bootstrap.js in the JS cog at some stage.

max77p

@max77p

@mutantspore i actually figured it out, it was because i didnt have the animate.css script added

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

ok then … you’ll still need bootstrap.js though

@avanbox ok I might hav ethat wrong .. similar name to something else

what is it for?

ok i see now

Andrew Vanboxel

@avanbox

an ide

i hate codepen so i wanted to do my work somewhere else

but i cant get it to recognize my .js file

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

yes , it’s annoying. I just use atom.io locally and put it up to codePen when i’m finished. I sometimes also run a local web server to test things on mobile more easily

Andrew Vanboxel

@avanbox

if i put <script src="calc.js"></script> in <head> I get a file not resolved error. ill look into that atom .io

Bruce Young

@mutantspore

@avanbox yes that’s because it’s a local file. You’d have to cut and paste it into codepen’s JS area

Atom and SublimeText are quite popular

Andrew Schmidthuber

@calicode

i like atom because its what $90 cheaper, lot of people like sublime tho

Andrew Vanboxel

@avanbox

no its new files i created in the ide. i linked my css is the html and it worked but it just wont see the .js i made in the same project in the same ide
