Delicious, the best bookmark website, provides many APIs to let developers to deal with the bookmarks’ data. Here’s an example to use jQuery to retrieve the total number bookmark count of a given URL.
Delicious API
To get a total number of bookmark, use this
http://feeds.delicious.com/v2/json/urlinfo/data?url=xxx.com&callback=?
jQuery Ajax
jQuery, comes with an easy but powerful .ajax() or shorthand .getJSON() to get the remote data on demand.
1. jQuery .ajax() example
Use the jQuery .ajax() to get the json data from Delicious, and display the total number of the bookmark count.
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
dataType: "json",
url: "http://feeds.delicious.com/v2/json/urlinfo/data?url="+url+"&callback=?",
success: function(data){
var count = 0;
if (data.length > 0) {
count = data[0].total_posts;
}
$("#delicious_result").text(count + ' Saved');
}
});
2. jQuery .getJSON() example
Shorthand for the above .ajax() method, both are doing the same task.
$.getJSON("
http://feeds.delicious.com/v2/json/urlinfo/data?url="+url+"&callback=?",
function(data) {
var count = 0;
if (data.length > 0) {
count = data[0].total_posts;
}
$("#delicious_result").text(count + ' Saved');
});
Try it yourself
