Add Export to Breadcrumbs (www.gobreadcrumbs.com) #207

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Breadcrumbs (www.gobreadcrumbs.com) is an online GPS Track Management 
Application that has an open API to upload GPX tracks. A track export to 
Breadcrumbs right from the application would be great.

If you're a developer, are you willing to implement this yourself? 

I am a developer but not the best at Java (could do it in Ruby ;) ).

Here are my thoughts on this subject:
- We cannot stop you and would actively encourage you to use our libraries to 
build a separate app which reads from the my tracks provider and sends the 
track to breadcrumbs.  I am even willing to help you in this effort.
- I am willing to consider including the functionality to send to breadcrumbs 
from inside the my tracks app. There is a precedent for apps like the gallery 
sending data to 3rd parties like flickr.  This is what I would want to see with 
such a change:
-- An interface for an uploader class.
-- A manager of said interfaces which does not know anything about breadcrumbs 
in particular.
-- In instance of the the interface for breadcrumbs.
-- Tests and documentation for all of the above code.

That way we are not doing anything special for breadcrumbs, and other 3rd 
parties could add their plugins at some point in the future.

I think I can follow you. If a user installs our separate application you might 
automatically provide an export button inside the app, of not, a user will not 
see one. An integration like Google maps export would have been our prefered 
solution, but I understand that you want a separate plugable system to be open 
for any 3rd party. I'll get back to you when we have an app going.
Thanks

Going to close this bug for now. Can reopen if we decide to support integration 
with any 3rd party api.
