Developer discussion for Creative Commons technology and tools

[Tarmo Toikkanen <tarmo.toikkanen AT iki.fi>]

With the currently limited technical resources at CC HQ, would it make sense to push these services into github and ask cc-devel to help fix them?

Got it.

I took a quick look... and I don't know how the api service is configured. I think it's just a matter of updating the RDF, but I'm not sure how quickly I could figure it out to update it. It looks like it's in a Python egg file.

I've got it tracked, though, we'll get it fixed.

Hi Lisa,

The URL you're looking for is for instance http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Please note the trailing /

However, I can't get the API to give any information on the 4.0 suite of licenses. On the other hand, http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/simple/chooser also returns only the 3.0 licenses, so I would assume that the API simply has not been updated.

Sincerely,
Jonas

Hi all - I am having problems with the CC API. I thought the issue was the 4.0 license, but am realizing that's not the case. If you try to get license details through the API -- I've done this with the staging version, dev verison, and the 1.5 version -- you get back "Invalid license URI" even when you do this with a simple BY/3.0 license. 

Staging - 

http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

Development - 

http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/dev/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

1.5

http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

If you swap out the 3.0 for 4.0 - same problem. Has something changed with API calls? According to the API info page, this all should work. http://api.creativecommons.org/docs/readme_15.html

Thanks for any/all help!

Hello Mike,

Thank you for your suggestion.  I believe you are correct that some of the attribution fields are causing the problem.

Here is the code snippet I am trying to add:

<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"><img
alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0"
src="http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/4.0/88x31.png" /></a><br /><span

property="dct:title" rel="dct:type">H Tech Solutions Blog</span> by <a
xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"

rel="cc:morePermissions">http://www.htechsolutions.biz/contact-us</a>.


Which sections of code should I remove as a test?

Try not filling out any of the attribution fields. You'll get something like

<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en_US"><img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0" src="http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/4.0/88x31.png" /></a><br />This work is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en_US">Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License</a>.

none of which any software ought complain about.

Side note: the chooser output ought be upgraded to output RDFa 1.1 Lite for the attribution stuff, which might decrease such problems.

Hello,

I recently visited the website http://creativecommons.org and selected a license for my blog content.  I used the website to generate the HTML code.  I have made ZERO modifications to the HTML that is generated.

I would like to add this HTML code to my blog which is built using SharePoint Online.  For some reason, the HTML code from your website does not appear to be compatible.  I am unable to save any blog entries which contain this code.  I have tested other snippets of HTML code which work fine with SharePoint Online.  So there is something about the HTML code from http://creativecommons.org which is not compatible.

Can someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?



Thank you,

Harris Schneiderman

The 3 xmlns attributes. And drop t from dct: (dc: is in the RDFa initial
context by default, as is cc:). I highlighted what to remove.
