I am planning to write a javascript library as a wrapper over StackExchange API. Currently, every webapp using StackExchange api needs to compile the url and make a GET request (mostly by ajax) which is somewhat repetitive and can be avoided.
I have started ground level work. I have created repository and already have some helper code which I used in my StackExchange api based app - StackEyeStackEye. Code is present on github.
Idea is if you need to get all the comments for a list of posts. You can call a method like a method like this:
SE.getCommentsOnPost(postList, { site: 'stackoverflow' }, function(commentList) {
// Consume commentList
});
I just want to know the following
- Is there any existing js sdk for stackexchange apis ?
- Is it a fair idea to develop such library ?
Any suggestions would be welcome.
