Parse error when searching events in Berlin

Hi!!

I have a problem searching events in Berlin. I have a parse error with
eventfulapi.

Psych::SyntaxError in EventsController#index

couldn't parse YAML at line 1 column 0

$ bundle exec rails --version
Rails 3.2.11
$ bundle list | grep event
  * eventfulapi (2.2.1)

Then problem is in:

vendor/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/gems/eventfulapi-2.2.1/lib/eventful/api.rb (line 356)

      # Raise an exception if we didn't get a 2xx response code
      response.value

      yaml = YAML::load response.body # <--- ERROR in Ruby on Rails

(Psych is the YAML parser)

response.body:

<pre>
events:
  event:

digest authentication API method - to be disabled very soon.

The digest authentication API method is going to be disabled in the next few weeks.  Please switch to oAuth as soon as you can.

Please see the authentication documentation for more details about oAuth: http://api.eventful.com/docs/auth

For testing the signature you generate from your application you can use this site:
That will generate a signature and you can compare the signature you generate with what you should be sending to the API.

Future dated events only

Hi,


When I do a query against the api using the python eventful library (version 0.3) like this:

events = eventful_api.call('/events/search', location=location_param, within='5', page_size='20', sort_order='date',date='Future')

It generates a query e.g.:


And this returns some things that are not in the future:

"start_time":"2012-03-08 00:00:00"
"start_time":"2012-10-02 13:00:00"
"start_time":"2012-11-08 13:00:00"
etc.

I shouldn't need to specify &date=Future apparently, because Future is the default, but the result is the same whatever I do

Any ideas about what I need to do to fix this would be very much appreciated

Thanks
Jon

C# Library

Hello,
    Is there a C# based interface library for the Eventful APIs? If so, where can I get it?

 
Thanks,

How To Get All Events By User

I have no experience with Eventful, but a client wants to use it as an 
event manager with a feed on his website. I see that the API is pretty 
thorough, but I have not been able to find a method to simply retrieve a 
list of events created by a particular user.

I can do a user search and get the profile of the username, but not the 
events created by said user.

Am I missing something simple or is there no way to do this?

API down?

Hi,

The API seems to be completely broken at the moment. Is anyone else having problems?

Discrepancies between api.eventful.com search results and eventful.com results

Hello all. I am using the Python Eventful wrapper for a personal project. However, I've noticed that the
request
http://api.eventful.com/rest/events/search?...&location=San+Diego&q=music&ga_search=music&ga_type=event&sort_order=Date&app_key=XYZ
differs significantly from what I assume is a similar search http://eventful.com/sandiego/events?q=music&ga_search=music&ga_type=events&sort_order=Date

Is my request formatted incorrectly?

Enhacement requests

Hi,

I want to suggest some Enhacement Requests, they are:

1. API Method /venues/search - add nearest order. 
It would be cool if we sent the GPS position and know
which venues are closer.

2. get favourite venues from an user

3. Search by added properties or tags
