I want/need to develop a mobile app for my site, my users are asking for it. 


How long until an API is developed for oxwall? I would be willing to develop one myself but I'll need a crash course in the database structure. I would like to start with the news feed.


for example how would I do this:


(select * from newsfeed where user="username")


the idea would be to separate the API from the site, and place it in a subdirectory called API and query it using permissions since oxwall would (i think) deliver a 404. I am very new to oxwall so perhaps I am  wrong.


the idea would be to ship out database contents via JSON.

Hi Nathan,
