Myxer Feeds
Myxer provides data feeds that provide external access to the content in our library.
Feeds are accessed using simple URLs, and can return data formatted in any of several
convenient formats.
Available Feeds
All of the currently available data feeds provide information about catalog items (ringtones,
wallpapers, videos, songs) from Myxer. There are three high level data feeds (see below),
each of which can be customized and filtered in various ways. See the individual feed documentation
pages for details.
- search - get a list of items by searching for keywords.
- content - get the details of a specific item.
- tag - get a list of items by tag.
- profile - get the items associated with a public profile.
- favorites - get the favorite items associated with a public profile.
- popular - get the current popular items.
- Pick of the Day - get Pick of the Day items.
Requesting Feeds
You can request feeds from many different contexts. For example, you might want to consume a
feed in the backend of your web application, from a Java, PHP, or ASP.NET environment. In that
case, you will typically want to create an HTTP request in your programming environment, and
request an XML-RPC formatted response from Myxer.
On the other hand, you might want to consume a Myxer feed from the presentation layer of your
web application, for example in JavaScript that runs in the user's browser. In this case, you
would typically request a JSON-formatted feed that can be consumed most easily by your script.
Feed Formats
All feeds can be requested in various formats, by specifying a 'format' parameter. The default
format is rss_092. See the individual feed pages for example responses in each format.
- rss_092

An RSS 0.92 formatted feed.
- json
-
A JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) feed. This is convenient if you are consuming feeds in front-end
code on a web site.
- HTML

A standard HTML formatted feed.
- XML

A raw XML formatted feed.
