| Flixn was conceived as more than just a website for instantly recording videos. This website is a technology showcase; a technology that can be quickly and easily integrated with any site. Our simple javascript API makes it simple to deploy the complete functionality of Flixn.com to your own site - be it in the realm of blogging, a forum, job hunting, retail or social networking - in a matter of minutes.
You don't have to bother with a username and password nor an API key. Just plug it in. It's that easy. Let's start with a 2-sentence API rundown. First, you present the Flash recorder to your user in a manner of your choosing, ensuring that the “allowScriptAccess” parameter is set to “always.” Second, implement a javascript function named flixn.recordComplete that takes a single parameter, the video ID of the just-recorded video. That's really just about all there is to it, but we have provided a set of reuseable components to make life even easier. Enter the Flixn API Toolkit v1.0. Reuseable JavaScript and CSS components Bear in mind that this is an early release, and that the components and plugins found on this page will be improving significantly over time. The motivation behind these components is to take out most of the legwork associated with a simple Flixn integration. We want you to be up and running in literally 5 minutes. flixn.js and flixn.css implement a simple and modular method of displaying the recorder to your users through the use of what has come to be known as a lightbox. In most scenarios, after a recording has completed, you will want the video ID, video URL, or some sort of tag containing the video ID to be inserted into an HTML input field or textarea. flixn.js takes care of this for you. To begin, you must first add references to these files in the HTML or template files from which a user will be able to start the recording process. |
