XML-RPC

IlohaBlog aims to make extensive use of XML-RPC APIs. As general principle, IlohaBlog will be developed to be fully compatible with MovableType by implementing the MetaWeblog and MT APIs. Compatibility with the Blogger API currently has a lower priority, mostly due to severe limitations in the API, and the extremely unstable state of the API specifications. IlohaBlog currently supports the following XML-RPC calls:

"blogger.getUsersBlogs"
"blogger.getUserInfo"
"blogger.getRecentPosts"
"blogger.newPost"
"blogger.getPost"
"blogger.deletePost"
"blogger.editPost"
"metaWeblog.newPost"
"metaWeblog.getPost"
"metaWeblog.editPost"
"metaWeblog.getRecentPosts"
"metaWeblog.getPostCategories"
"metaWeblog.setPostCategories"
"metaWeblog.newMediaObject"
"mt.getRecentPostTitles"
"mt.getCategoryList"
"mt.setPostCategories"
"mt.getPostCategories"
"mt.supportedTextFilters"

More information about these API calls can be found in the MovableType documentation: http://www.movabletype.org/mt-static/docs/mtmanual_programmatic.html

An IlohaBlog API is also planned for the near future. The IlohaBlog API will contain all applicable MovableType APIs, as well as proprietary methods that will allow third party clients to access all features found in IlohaBlog. Proprietary methods will be replaced with standardized APIs, should equivalent methods become available.

It should also be noted that MovableType and IlohaBlog have different feature sets. The XML-RPC methods are implemented in such a way that applicable fields are re-mapped and used, however, those that do not apply to IlohaBlog are safely ignored. As such, it is possible that certain conditions that result in an error under MovableType will not result in an error in IlohaBlog.
