Hello.

Is there someone who has started to work or has seen a module to integrate .tel Domains into Drupal? There is an API on the telnic developers site for this. After a firts quick look you should be able to use SOAP.

If there is no project by now, maybe I will give it a try. As im not into coding at the moment that much it will sure take time. Someone else interested?

Wished Feature List:

  • Management of .tel out of drupal
    • Creating entries and folders (subfolders) in .tel
    • One entrie can be under different folders (paths - you would reach that in drupal with Taxonomy Synonyms)
    • Updating entries
    • Deleting entries
    • The entries can be seen also in the drupal page but are 'uploaded' to .tel also.
  • Search in specific .tel Domains or in all .tel, but there is already http://www.jepaa.com/
  • Mass upload of Data (for initially creating Folders or check the data and loading it up at once after that.)

Please do not diskuss here if .tel domains are good or not. They are there now and we will see if the will be used or not. I am sceptical too. This is just not the right place for a disscussion like that, so please stick to the topic.

Best regards
JThan

If I understand correctly, you want to create a .tel management interface in Drupal?
You can use the AJAX/JSON API for the TelHosting platform to easily integrate into any site:

http://dev.telnic.org/trac/wiki/AjaxAPI

In fact you can even just grab the javascript files from your registrar's TelHosting interface and embed them in Drupal to have a fully functional .tel management platform.

As for doing direct .tel lookups and integrating the results into your Drupal pages, you might want to look at the following:

Perl+html code to embed .tel data in a web page:
http://dev.telnic.org/downloads/tools/DotTelProxy.zip

A WordPress .tel plugin (PHP):
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gwa-tel-contact-manager/

Essentially there's code on the dev.telnic.org site for almost every single language out there: C, C++, Objective-C, Java, Perl, PHP.
