Google Base API

[showery]

does anyone know if any of the programmers have a plan to put out a Google Base API contib? Maybe something that keeps our google base up to date and is atleast partway automatic.

 

Thanks and as always you guys with the brains keep up the great work on OSC

I've posted several times here trying to find an answer to my problem with Google Base but haven't solved my issue. I keep getting the message "Google Base Store Connector, No category found, Failed to collect categories" whenever I try to import my OSCommerce items into Google Base.

Doesn't this contribution do that? I looked into submitting to Google Base quickly after coming into this thread and it seems to be just a case of generating a feed file and setting up your Google Base account to download that feed automatically using the scheduling feature.

My problem is trying to remember which stores I have updated and which ones I have not. I think the scheduling thing would work if we had a file or contrib that would work like most of the other bases work. I have a couple others I list on that when they come to gather products it runs the php file to collect any changes to the products. Like shopmania does. The I do it now is I use easy populate to make my froogle file, then upload the file manually to the base. Of course this repeats itself every 30 days. I was thinking since google base does offer an API why is it that no one has figured this code out yet to add a contrib, have to admit it would be a good one to have. i would do it but I don't have a clue, not a programmer.
