Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Labs :: Jetpack Prototype, defect)

Description

[Anant Narayanan [:anant]]

We have enough in trunk right now to implement FoxyTunes in jetpack, but we need to know if we need anything more. A JEP should clarify that.

Anant, we need documentation for this feature! Where's the JEP? If you can sketch out what the actual API calls are, I can write it up. But, as it stands, no one will be able to use the feature for lack of knowing how :(

I put up documentation at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Jetpack/JEP/26

Writing an equivalent of FoxyTunes using jetpack.music sounds like something we might do at the Jetpack Hackathon in Prague :)

That's right! You'll be there! Epic times abound.

Thanks for the documentation. Can you put in one simple example of it in use into the JEP? That would be super helpful.

I put up an example that plays a given track everytime Firefox starts.
