Brief description

FunnyAPI is a private invite only image API for WordPress.

I decided to develop a backend for various types of images, mostly humor related to be fetched from the WordPress post screen.

I know I could have simply just uploaded images to each WordPress install, but that would give me a migraine, and I thought it would be easier to have one central database that can be parsed via a Plugin.

Some screenshots:












Installation is pretty straight forward.

Easy 5 Step install

1. Upload files to your domain root.
2. chmod the pictures and thumbs directory to be writable
3. Create a mysql database to use and import db.sql into the database
4. Edit config.inc.php in the includes/ directory with your domain, and mysql info.
5. Visit yourdomain.com/admin and login with admin/admin

Also you can parse the api outside of WordPress if you need to use it for a 3rd party app.

an example is in the /api directory called apitest.php

<?php

define("API_URL", "http://www.funnyapi.com/api/search.php?searchby=%s&q=%s&apikey=%s&max_results=%d&thumbsize=%s");
define('API_KEY', '198fe85619b5bb38758b2fcbe1b67cdc1600f63a');

function api_search($q, $by = 'all', $max_results = 16, $thumbsize = '200x200') {
	$api_url = sprintf(API_URL, $by, $q, API_KEY, $max_results, $thumbsize);
	
	$ch = curl_init($api_url);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
	
	$json = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);
	
	if (stristr(strtolower($json), 'access denied') || stristr(strtolower($json), 'error')) {
		return false;
	} else {
		if (($arr = json_decode($json)) !== FALSE) {
			return $arr;
		} else {
			return false;
		}
	}
}

//$q = (isset($_GET['q']) ? $_GET['q'] : 'unassoc');
$q = $_GET['q'];

if(!$q) die('Missing Parameters!');

$results = api_search($q);

if (is_array($results)) {
	foreach ($results as $idx => $obj) {
		echo '<div style="float: left; margin-left: 5px;"><a href="' . $obj->full_url . '" target="_BLANK" title="' . $obj->title . '"><img alt="' . $obj->description . '" src="' . $obj->full_url . '" /></a><p><strong>Tags:</strong>&nbsp;' . implode(',', $obj->tags) . '</p>';
	}
} else {
	echo 'API Request Failed';
}
?>

If anyone needs any help installing or getting running, let me know, you can also use this for say amateur pics if you have a lot of amateur blogs and you want a central location.
