07:39 <merrihew> Is there a way to use the user API to search for a given user by the extra data provided during user creation?

08:18 <merrihew> And I may be missing a major point, but is it not necessary to explicitly add a user to a trigger?

08:43 <aaronpk> merrihew: there is currently no search, but it's on the roadmap for users and places, etc

08:44 <aaronpk> merrihew: you do need to explicitly subscribe users to a layer

08:50 <merrihew> aaronpk What API method do you use to subscribe them?

08:51 <merrihew> Sorry, missed the important part of subscribing to the layer, not the trigger

08:52 <merrihew> So if you want to have a trigger around a certain point on the map, you need to create a place, then add that place to a layer, then subscribe the user to the layer, then create a trigger for the layer?

08:53 <merrihew> Is there a way to just subscribe the user to a place?

08:53 <aaronpk> if you don't need other users to be able to run the trigger, then you can just create the trigger for the user using their own access token

08:55 <merrihew> When a user is created anonymously on the system, how do you run commands "for the user using their own access token" from the main server?

08:55 <aaronpk> you'll need to know their ID, or the application can get a list of users it has created

08:56 <aaronpk> see: http://developers.geoloqi.com/api/user/list

08:57 <merrihew> So I am able to get the user ID, but how do I then use this to add a user to a trigger? I think I am missing the part where I need to create the access token for the user?

08:58 <aaronpk> if you are making the API call as the application, then you can specify a user_id to the layer/subscribe API call: http://developers.geoloqi.com/api/layer/subscribe/:id

08:58 <aaronpk> so you don't need the user's access token in that case

08:59 <merrihew> But just to be clear, is there a way to get an OAuth token for a specific user programmatically from the API?

09:05 <aaronpk> merrihew: yes, that's the "assertion" grant type, see: http://developers.geoloqi.com/api/oauth/token

10:07 <merrihew> aaronpk Thanks for the help. I couldn't quite understand the workflow (since it sometimes requires application tokens and sometimes user tokens) but I think I got it now. I can't seem to understand why some requests allow you to use an application token and others seem to only work with client_id & client_secret.

10:09 <aaronpk> merrihew: yes, sorry for the confusion. The pattern is any of the user/* and oauth/* methods must use the client ID and secret directly, everything else uses the application or user tokens

10:09 <merrihew> How is the proper way to send id/secret using the nodejs api?

10:10 <merrihew> (which it looks like you wrote :) )

10:10 <aaronpk> i think I had the last commit, kyledrake wrote it originally :)

10:11 <aaronpk> ah, actually looks like it needs a bit of updating

10:13 <patrickarlt> aaronpk: what are the appcelerator plan ids

10:15 <merrihew> aaronpk Just saw you listed, sorry kyledrake

10:18 <merrihew> So how would I authenticate using client_id/client_secret?

10:19 <aaronpk> it looks like the node.js module doesn't have a way to do that right now, since it just does it explicitly in the "authorize()" method

10:19 <merrihew> new geoloqi.Session({client_id: 'aaa', client_secret: 'bbb'}) doesn't seem to work

10:20 <merrihew> ahh

10:20 <aaronpk> It needs to be able to send the client ID and secret in an HTTP header on certain requests, but I don't see it doing that in the code

10:20 <merrihew> Am I SOL for user/* methods using the nodejs module?

10:21 <aaronpk> for now, you'd have to do the request manually

10:21 <aaronpk> it's just using the "https" library internally, so you can use that directly

10:22 <merrihew> gotcha, will do

10:22 <aaronpk> http://nodejs.org/api/https.html#https_https_request_options_callback see the "auth" parameter in this page

10:22 <aaronpk> you'd set it to a string like this: client_id+':'+client_secret

11:20 <kyledrake> hello!
