A feature that has oft been requested is of course an API. While a public and unrestricted API is near the top of my list, there are some things that need to be done to pave the way. However, one thing that I have actually needed is a way to act upon events within my project on Codaset. I want to be notified by email, or a webhook, or even via Twitter, when some one forks my project, or when a commit is pushed.

So out of this was born the Codaset Push API!

"Push API? What's that then?" I hear you cry. Well, just select a few events, and...

...enter an email, and select a few events for your project, and we will email that provided address when those selected events occur. ...enter a URL, and we will post the event data to that URL, just like a webhook. ...choose a twitter account, and we will tweet from it on your behalf, each time an event takes place.

I am just putting the finishing touches to it right now, and hope to deploy it within the next week. I'll post again with more detailed info when it is pushed out. But until then, I would love to hear your thoughts and comments.
