Oh, hi John!
Yes, we met at the hackathon, and we even improved the website we showed
you there: we even display wikivoyage guides around you!
(
https://www.wikijourney.eu/). (Well, hopefully, because nine months
without any update would have been kind of sad haha)
We'll need android beta-testers soon, and maybe some guidance on
special:gather, because we just suceeded in integrating OAuth (which is
quite a success, because OAuth implementation was a nightmare...).
Overall, we mainly used wikidata query editor, which was really easy to
use.
What we needed was 1) get points of interests around a specific location
(which the « around » call helped a lot), 2) Get tourism-related
wikidata/wikipedia infos of those POI's, which is quite simple. We even
made a little wrapper/api to get directly these informations:
https://github.com/WikiJourney/wikijourney_website/wiki/API-:-How-does-it-w…
However, as I said, we may need some help integrating collections, but
we'll post questions on appropriate sections :)
Thanks for your answers - the app should be in beta in the play store
tomorrow.

Hey,
You guys started at the hackathon right? It is so great to hear it is
coming along and I look forward to using it as well.

I'm not an app developer but if you need a beta tester or any
specific guidance on how you are using the API please let me know.
It would also be great to hear from you what pain points you ran
into whilst building this - specifically it would be good to
understand we can improve in MediaWiki's API to better support
what you are trying to do.

Yes!
Because we don't know if it's well-written enough so that
someone who's not in the project could read, understand what
our code is doing and modify it without much trouble...

Hi Paul -- Are you asking for some sort
of code or
architecture review for your application?

Hi,
I'm currently developing, with some friends, an
application called WikiJourney to promote « free » (as in
a speech) tourism. For now, it can locate an android user
on a map, display points of interests extracted from
wikidata and show the user the associated wikipedia articles.
The application will shortly be able to create touristic
« tours », but currently, we need some feedback from
people, and not just user-related feedback...
We feel our code
(
https://github.com/WikiJourney/wikijourney_app/) is a
bit messy, but don't know if there's a precise « coding
convention » here at Wikimedia.
What do you think of it?
Thanks by advance for your feedback,
The WikiJourney Team
