Request to use Google Books API to obtain book information.
@takuyakanbr Approved. But I would suggest you to be careful in using this! It is listed as experimental.
The following libraries are approved by default in case you need to use them.
Would leave it to you guys to figure out what each does :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Request to use Google Tasks API for tracking list of to-dos.
@iNekox3 Approved!
Request to use CalendarFX as a framework for Calendar view.
@Sisyphus25 Approved :heavy_check_mark:
Request to use emoji-java for displaying emoji
@IzHoBX Approved!
Request to use Google GSON for JSON parsing, CoinMarketCap API and CryptoCompare API to obtain cryptocurrency data, and Cryptopanic API for latest cryptocurrency news
@laichengyu Google GSON is approved.
Please wait for our confirmation for the other 3
Request to use RestFB to interact with Facebook Graph API.
Request to use Google OAuth Client Library for Java
@shadow2496 Approved to use RestFB
@davidten Approved to use Google OAuth Client
@laichengyu I would suggest you to see if you get any alternative to the mentioned crypto-related APIs. The license terms doesn't seem conducive for use within CS2103 scope.
@okkhoy Request to use Google Web services library and GMapsFX
@okkhoy I'm with @laichengyu's team. Could you tell us which term in CryptoCompare API's license (CC BY-NC 3.0) is not suitable for CS2103, since this is a non-commercial, purely educational project, and since we are required to attribute in our documentation anyway? We can find alternatives for the other two we mentioned. Would greatly appreciate your clarification, thanks!
request to use Twilio API to send sms notification
@ewaldhew @laichengyu
From the initial link that was provided:
Storage and redistribution of CryptoCompare data is strictly prohibited without a commercial license agreement ( contact support for more info ).
We would appreciate if you provided us with the right links to verify.
If it is CCBY-NC, I guess it is OK. Please note that we don't want you to get into any troubles (and get us into any troubles!)
So as long as you don't violate the terms of use of CruptoCompare API, you can use it.
@koo1993 Twilio is a paid service. Hence you may want to consider alternatives?
@okkhoy you missed my request >.<
@Damienskt oops! sorry! The two libraries requested are approved :smile:
request to use JavaMail API and Java Activation Framework (JAF) to send emails notification
@mattbuot Approved. The are a part of the Java API set, no?
@okkhoy yes you're right
Then no need to ask 😛 @mattbuot
sorry didn't noticed ! @okkhoy
@okkhoy Hi, thanks for the heads up, sorry for the wrong link (they didn't update the website with the new API page).
I sent an email to their support specifically asking about the part about storage of data, and they have replied saying, as long as the product has no commercial use we can use it freely with credit given.
Request to use Github API
@AdityaA1998 approved!
Are we allow to use additional plugins for our UI?
Specifically, can we the following use: http://gluonhq.com/get-started/ide-plugins/
@KevinChuangCH in the spirit of using only the available tools, we won't allow using additional plugins.
@jill858 approved to use Fixer API
@okkhoy Request to use Apache PDFBox
@Ang-YC approved!
@okkhoy Request to use Apache Commons IO
@johnnychanjx approved 👍
@kokonguyen191 approved!
@okkhoy Request to use Google Drive API
@Caijun7 Approved! It is quite late in the semester; please be careful when you add new features now.
@okkhoy
Request to use Twilio Voice call SDK
Request to use Spark to create a REST API relay server.
@samzx Spark approved. Please wait for clarification on Twilio. It is best to find an alternative (as suggested earlier for a different Twilio request). I am concerned that your request has come in rather late, please be careful and ensure that you don't break your product!
@samzx Please find an alternative to Twilio.
@okkhoy I forgot to request it earlier, but It's already implemented and working as intended, is that okay?
@samzx Errr... What is the point of asking for approval then! Please check with the module coordinators. Their decision is final.
Dear all,
Please make your request in the comments below. That way all library requests will be under one heading.
So far we have three requests:
These are approved! 👍
Additionally, once the library is approved, no need to request again. It is approved for all of you 😄
Thanks, Akshay
PS: I am closing those individual library use requests.
