I’m getting acquainted witht the Ghost project as a whole and the admin API in particular, as I work on adding support for Ghost to my Mac blogging app, MarsEdit.
I’m running into some minor documentation tweaks that I would submit as pull requests if the documentation is open source. I see there is a “docs” repository but it’s listed as “archived” and doesn’t seem to match the public docs.ghost.org site.
Is there a way to submit changes? One in particular that stood out to me just now is the documentation claiming that DELETE requests will return a 200 status on success, whereas I confirmed through experience and by reading the code, that it will return a 204 instead.
Thanks! I think it would be a good idea to open up the docs to an official contribution/collaboration process, but I suppose they had their reasons for taking them offline.
Thanks for the encouragement. I got pretty far on my end before I ran into the unusual format for Ghost posts with respect to the custom non-HTML format. It’s not a deal-breaker but it slowed me down and made me put the effort aside for a bit while I think through how to best handle that.
It’s still on my list but I sort of lost momentum and some other priorities took the place of working on Ghost support. All hope is not lost - hopefully I’ll get back on it at some point.
Would love to see Ghost support in MarsEdit. Until then I will use Ulysses, in which it is easy to publish to a Ghost blog. However, Ulysses has no 2-way-sync, so updating published posts or keeping them in sync with local copies is not possible.
