I just set up a new delicious account, using my Yahoo! ID (delicious apparently won't let you set up "old school" delicious accounts any more).
But when I try to log in to that new account with Pukka, I get a login failure.
Am I doing something wrong, or is Pukka not working with Yahoo! ID accounts yet?
To follow up, this still does not appear to be working satisfactorily. There are two problems -- old accounts on Delicious cannot use OAuth, and new accounts that do use it successfully cannot access private bookmarks.
I have posted here to request confirmation of these as known issues and an ETA on getting them fixed:
http://developer.yahoo.net/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=3065&view=findpo...
Sorry for the trouble. I'm as anxious to see this working as you are :-/
While I haven't seen a good set of responses out of Yahoo! yet, I have seen in my testing that private bookmarks are now working. However, though you can merge an existing Delicious account with a Yahoo! ID, it doesn't seem that you can keep multiple accounts when doing this. I'm still looking into this.
thanks for sticking with it!
Hi there,
I'd be a new user of Pukka, but I was unfortunate enough to have regained my interest in Delicious AFTER the Yahoo merger, and have no old-skool account. I know some other Delicious clients are now able to support Yahoo's API. Could we have an update on this problem, and perhaps some sort of temporary workaround?
Thanks!
This is unfortunately still in the works. Problems abound with the Yahoo! side of things, so I'm keeping busy trying to sort it out and get a working build. Thanks for your patience.
Also, to address the issue of a workaround: there does not currently seem to be a way around this. New-style accounts just plain can't use the old API; they have to use the first, and the only way to authorize them is with OAuth, which isn't working reliably yet.
Any update on the status of this?
Is pukka still not working with yahoo ID ? It's been a while now, and i'd realy like to enjoy what seems to be a perfect tool...
Testing is getting there. I will definitely post here when a prerelease is available for testing -- I would like to do a public test. Thanks for your patience.
First beta release of Pukka with support for Yahoo! ID is now available!
http://codesorcery.net/downloads/Pukka_1.8.4b1.zip
I should point out that this particular version only works on Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6 due to the framework used. I'm not sure at this time whether 10.4 support will be dropped in 1.8.4 final or if that will wait until 1.9.
Apologies for the delay on this -- it proved to be complicated to get things right.
Feedback welcome in comments to this post.
Thank you ! It syncs well with my delicious acount, but I can't post or modify new links, I get a pukka error alert:
"There was a problem with your post! The site had a problem with your post. Please try again."
I have the same problem. Tried a workaround, but I can't enter or edit my bookmarks. Just access them.
Thanks for the report and sorry for the problem. I definitely did not experience it in testing. Not sure that it matters, but are these accounts new since the OAuth switch or are they older, converted Delicious accounts?
Will try to reproduce this and if possible, fix and product a build soon.
My account was older and I converted it back in November--I'm kicking myself now for doing it!
Delicious was already working with Yahoo!ID when I signed in ;)
Thanks for the beta release.
My two old-style delicious accounts work fine all around. A new (non-converted) Yahoo-based account using Oauth worked for an initial test post, then returned the error message as described above by Whitecoyote: "There was a problem with your post! The site had a problem with your post. Please try again."
Thanks
For those having problems, could you please go to Window > Console in Pukka after experiencing the problem and see if there are any messages there?
Here's the entire log of pukka with the error:

Could you also please launch Applications > Utilities > Console and see if Pukka is reporting info there? You should be able to search on Pukka as well as get results from the past day or two, not just immediately recent.
Here is a second beta build which should fix the posting problem. Fire away!
Sorry, I'm bringing some more stuff for you... :((
[EDIT]
I had some problems finding the console messages, caused by a **** micromat Daemon that was saturating the console screen, but I finaly found them and the only ones I could get are quite recent since I was waiting for a new release of Pukka to launch it again.

Thanks for the second beta. I reinstalled Pukka on a fresh user in OSX and de-authorized and re-authorized Pukka at Yahoo. The new Yahoo-created account appears to add OK to Pukka, and the bookmarks read correctly in the Pukka menu.
But then same error message happens on posting, as above. Pukka console reads:
===== 2010-02-25 21:41:00 -0800 =====
OAuth oauth_problem="signature_invalid", realm="yahooapis.com"
===== 2010-02-25 21:41:00 -0800 =====

Thanks for your work on this.
Just to confirm, dav4567, you are seeing this with 1.8.4b2? I have not been able to reproduce the problem.
Just released Pukka 1.8.4b3, which includes a small OAuth tweak, but mostly other things. I'd appreciate any continued feedback about Yahoo! ID compatibility.
It seems quite complicated... I'm getting the same error.

Thanks for the new beta. I hammered away at this and discovered the following:
I can post these URLs to a new Yahoo-based Oauth delicious via Pukka 1.8.4b3:
but not these:
I've been able to post the 1st macworld link, too, but it's not working for all the urls not starting with http://
[Edit] Actually I tried some other sites and macworld is the only one that worked at the moment... I'll post if I have time to run some tests.
I am indeed now able to reproduce this "invalid signature" issue. Should get to the bottom of it shortly. Thanks for your continued patience.
Ok, Whitecoyote, dav4567, and anyone else seeing posting issues, please give 1.8.4b4 a shot:
http://codesorcery.net/downloads/Pukka_1.8.4b4.zip
Besides hopefully fixing this issue, it includes a fix for keyboard layouts other than US not having proper access to keyboard shortcuts in the search window (see this post).
I gave it a try, and it's working fine on my side, exept that the trial version is now only giving me 11 days ^^
Thank you for your great work Justin, I think Pukka is now gonna become one of my most used applications.
Au revoir ;)
On this rev, I'm posting well to pre-Yahoo Delicious accounts as well as Yahoo-based accounts. All my issues described above in this thread are resolved.
I highly recommend Pukka—lean, fast-running, with a small but dedicated group of users.
Thanks Justin, for creating the app and troubleshooting this specific issue for us.
Awesome, really glad to hear it. I may introduce some visual tweaks before 1.8.4 final, but I'm glad the functionality is now there and reliable.
I'm closing this post as I've just released Pukka 1.8.5 with support for Yahoo! ID based on these beta builds. If there are any issues with Yahoo IDs or anything else, please post a new forum topic to have it resolved.
I appreciate everyone's patience and feedback in this post!



Hi there.
I apologize for the problem with this. Yahoo! switched new Delicious accounts to Yahoo! ID and OAuth-only last week, but do not have their systems working with it yet for third-party access.
I've posted at these two links in an effort to get this fixed with no great responses yet from Yahoo! I will definitely post when I know more :-/
