Routing windowslivewriter manifest & XMLRPC MetaWeblog to support OpenLiveWriter

[warrenbuckley]

• Adds the wlwmanifest/{id} route to return the XML used in conjunction with the RSD XML
• Gets the XMLRPC / MetaWeblog Controller for receiving HTTP POSTed XML for OpenLiveWriter
• Drops Cookcomputing.XMLRpc for WilderMinds.MetaWeblog
  https://github.com/shawnwildermuth/MetaWeblog

Help needed

I am unsure with DI to update the Root Articulate Blog Node ID - so appreciate any pointers @Shazwazza

private IPublishedContent BlogRoot()
{
    // TODO: Do not hardcode 1068 - need to pass it through from the controller route
    // When injecting this service into the controller - but how?!?
    var node = _umbracoContextAccessor.GetRequiredUmbracoContext().Content.GetById(1068);
    ...
}

Testing

• Download Open Live Writer
• Have test site running & put a breakpoint in MetaWeblogController to help with ddebugging
• Add new configuration pointing to example site
• Add a new post - via theme detection
• It should delete the temp post & put it in the recycle bin
• Add a new post
  • Select existing category
  • Add a new category
  • Select existing tags
  • Add a new tag
  • Add one or more image (Use the silly effects in LiveWriter)
  • Save draft & verify
  • Publish & verify
• Close Open Live Writer
• File -> Open Recent Post -> Select blog account from list (Fetches recent posts)
  • Select an item
  • Use delete button - ensure blog post is moved to recycle bin
  • Select an item to edit
  • Update content, properties, categories & tags - verify changes are expected

Has some conflicts now. Then windows live writer integration will need to be tested

[warrenbuckley]

This is just the route and XML returned for the WLW Manifest

Will do a sperate PR for the route that is needed for WLW (Will also see if you can download/use it)

OK not sure if Windows Live Writer is a thing anymore and the MetaWebBlog Spec is 404 from your comments
http://xmlrpc.com/metaWeblogApi.html

Is this something still worth supporting and migrating over @Shazwazza ?

[Shazwazza]

It's a thing, It's Open Live Writer now https://openlivewriter.com/

[warrenbuckley]

Ok will have to take a look to try and figure out the rest of it.

Gotta love the XP/Windows Vista style vibes of the app still !

Making draft PR as will include the other routing stuff to get all of the MetaWeblog/Open Live Writer stuff working

[warrenbuckley]

OK @Shazwazza I am gonna need your help here as I have fixed up the MetaWeblogHandler class that was commented out but I have no idea how to wire it up into the routes with RouteTransformer stuff you have.

Any advice or pointers you can give on how to fix/resolve this then I can try and attempt it

[warrenbuckley]

@Shazwazza ready for review & testing with Open Live Writer now :)
