un-hardcode shows #3

Closed owise1 closed 9 years ago

owise1 commented 9 years ago

It looks like the shows are hardcoded in here (https://github.com/coreytegeler/add-art-chrome/blob/master/js/defaultSources.js), is there an external way to fetch the current shows?

coreytegeler commented 9 years ago

the way the plugin has worked is by hardcoding in the default shows, and allowing the user to add additional shows which I did not fully build in this chrome version

this hardcoded list is used to reach out to our wordpress (which i just invited you to) to fetch the RSS feeds that correspond to each show. we could drop the hardcoded list and instead request all WP posts on the site with a certain category, save them to local storage and populate the show selection interface with the results.

then when a user adds a new source that is not the default, we can append it to the local storage array of available sources

does this make sense?

I'd also love to, at some point, build an interface for anyone to more easily create a show and publish it on the site for others to add

that makes sense. it looks like we can use this feed: http://add-art.org/feed/
