Feature Request: Larger Widget Showing Followers. #3

Closed VaughnWhiskey closed 11 years ago

SORRY: DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE THIS A FEATURE REQUEST

I am not sure if this makes sense but you know how a Facebook Page widget shows people who like the subject of the Facebook Page. Is there anyway to create a larger widget or option to add a streams followers to it?

That feature could even be summed up with even a "Follower Count" i know that you can pull followers from

but I am no coder, so i am not sure if this could be done.

So you're just looking for a count of followers on your channel? Should be doable.

I did a mock up to help me explain. http://i.imgur.com/q3B8aOA.png When you are live, it would shows "Live Viewers" "Views" and "Followers"

Then when you where offline, it would just have your "Views" and "Followers"

Thanks for the mock-up. Should be doable as long as the Twitch API allows access to that kind of content, which I'm pretty sure it does. I'll have a look tonight.

you rock sir.

svinkle commented 11 years ago

Follower count is available, however, views is not.

Ex: https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/mlgcod/follows?limit=1 (limit=1 since we only care about _total value anyway).

I might be able to get to this later in the week.
