At work, we’ve been using Campfire, the wonderful web-based group chat application from 37signals for a while now, and have found it essential in our virtual environment.
I recently discovered Marshmallow, the unofficial Campfire API, and setup deploy notifications, and couple other little hacks to keep the virtual office up to speed. However, Marshmallow was missing a critical feature (in my mind): the ability to watch and process others’ messages in the room. So, I spent a couple minutes this morning and added a new watch method:
I also added a new topic method to set the current room’s topic – we use it to match Basecamp project numbers and put the project URL in the topic.
The SVN server for Marshmallow seems to be down, and I can’t seem to get in touch with court3nay, so I figured I’d just let this loose. Without further ado, here’s Marshmallow 0.3.
