Community Built Tools

Posted January 19, 2013 25.7k views
Is anyone interested in building more tools for DigitalOcean? So far I've read about two API wrappers written in PHP: https://github.com/tuefekci/DigitalOcean-PHP-Class https://github.com/StylusEater/Dropper Do others have projects they'd like to add to this thread? Please reply with your project link if you do so we can keep them in one place. I'm going to see what I can do to support other languages in the following order: Ruby Python Perl Java If you want to help, please reply to this thread.

Awesome work guys we love seeing everyone building on top of the API.

We have some major rewrites coming soon starting with the Control Panel and then the Front-End website and there will also be some new sections added to the community.

One of them will most likely be projects though we are open to other suggestion on what to label this section and it will feature all of these wrappers, apps, and other projects that customers have created for the community.

This way the discussion around a particular tool can be done there and it will provide an easy way for new users to see what others have built.

Let us know what you think about this proposed idea!

Thanks =]

Hi! I've just pushed to GitHub a project called DO4J - DigitalOcean For Java. It's a library you can plug into your Java project and then get access to the entire DigitalOcean API in a full Java way of things.

Check out: https://github.com/marcelocg/do4j

Contributions are welcome and will be of great help. It's just a kickoff but fully functional. There are lots of improvements that can be done, mostly on test classes and easing some features, like finding Sizes, etc but for now you can get full control over your resources at DigitalOcean.

I have started to develop docc (Digital Ocean Command Centre). This is a command line tool written in Python (linux only for now) that allows you to create, modify droplets via the command line. It also comes with an encapsulation of the API so it is easy to write your own Python scripts.

While this is a work in progress, you can find the latest version of the module at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/docc/ and the source code at https://github.com/dsegonds/docc
