yahoo-pipes

is it possible to submit forms with yahoo pipes? i basically need to log in somewhere, and get some stuff from the members area of a website into a feed. Although this is not exactly programming related... I guess it is close enough. No, logging into somewhere is impossible with Yahoo Pipes. Sending the username/password isn't even the only problem here. The real problem is that most, if not all, web sites that require a log-in depend on a session cookie or something similar. Yahoo pipes can do a GET request, and that's about it. Even if it was possible to send your user name/password in the

Yahoo Pipes lack of processing power and cannot works well with website from far east. I need to process complex regex from far multiple locations, hundreds of posts every minutes, which Yahoo Pipes fail to generate the result. Is there any codes or script act like Yahoo Pipes which I can use it in my own server? Pipe2py is a compiler script that will generate a Python equivalent of a Yahoo Pipe given the URL of the pipe: https://github.com/ggaughan/pipe2py/ (Note that not all Pipes blocks have yet been implemented.) A "hosted" version of Pipe2Py is also available on Google App Engine: http:/

I'm trying to read a feed from Yahoo Pipes into a Silverlight Application. I keep getting a SecurityException, which sounds like a cross domain policy problem, but Yahoo pipes, if you go through the pipes.yahooapis domain, has a cross domain policy, so should be ok. I tried the exact same code, but going to the Digg API, and it works fine (although this is rest rather than an rss feed). Could my error have nothing to do with Cross Domain policies? I use the following code for the web request : WebClient wc = new WebClient(); wc.DownloadStringAsyncCompleted += new

I'm fooling around with Yahoo! pipes and I'm hitting a wall with some regular expression. Now I'm familiar with regular expressions from Perl but the rules just seem to be different in Yahoo! pipes. What I'm doing is fetching a page and trying to turn it into a feed, my regex for stripping out the link from the HTML works fine but the title which I want to be what was in <i> tags just outputs the original text. Sample text that matches in Perl and on this online regexp tester : <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" HREF="http://changed.to/protect/the-guilty.html"><i>"Fee Fi Fo Fun" (English Man)<

I really like the interface for Yahoo Pipes ( http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/ ) and would like to create a similar interface for a different problem. Are there any libraries that would allow me to create an interface with the same basic look and feel? I especially like how the pipes behave and how they are not just straight lines. Edit: The application would be web-based. I'm open to using Flash or Javascript. WireIt is an open-source javascript library to create web wirable interfaces like Yahoo! Pipes for dataflow applications, visual programming languages or graphical modeling. Wireit uses

I've used Yahoo Pipes for some prototyping, but I'm unwilling reluctant to use it in full production as we'll have no control over it uptime etc. Is there an (ideally open source) alternative that I can run on my own server? Or any application that can convert a pipe into PHP or Ruby? You can generate a Python code equivalent of a simple Yahoo pipe with pipe2py: http://github.com/ggaughan/pipe2py If a generated code equivalent of Yahoo Pipes block you require isn't part of the distribution, pipe2py is easily extended/ (Please consider contributing any extensions back...) What about this? http:
