This year, we have developed a reusable web service that should hold up for 2014 and beyond. _(Acronym alert - non-programmers skip the next sentence.)_ This one has a <acronym title="Representational State Translation">REST</acronym> <acronym title="Application Programming Interface">API</acronym> instead of <acronym title="Simple Object Access Protocol">SOAP</acronym> and <acronym title="Web Services Definition Language">WSDL</acronym>, and supports <acronym title="Extensible Markup Language">XML</acronym>, <acronym title="JavaScript Object Notation">JSON</acronym>, and <acronym title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</acronym> output formats. This year, it also supports both English and Español.

The REST API start page <del>is</del> _(UPDATE: was)_ at http://services.djs-consulting.com/FortyForty. The prayer guides require an output format, a language, the Scripture version, whether the guide is for a day or an hour, and the day or hour number. There are lookup transactions for lists of available output formats, languages, and Scripture versions, and lookups for converting a date to a day number and a date/time to an hour number.

There will be a WordPress plug-in shortly that will utilize this to display the current day or hour's prayer guide directly on your blog; we'll make another post when that is available. Also, starting September 26th (the first day of the vigil), it will be available for display with no login required at the Hoffmantown Prayer and [PrayerTracker][pt] websites. Developers, the service is available now; if you want to write code to utilize the service, you've got 3 months to make it work!

Version 2012.0 is the version that's up there now. The Spanish translations of the options menu is not done yet, but you can specify Spanish prayer guides. Version 2012.1 will contain the localized options menu. If you run into any problems using it, you can submit issues against it at its WordPress Plugin Directory page.
