Exporting a user's pipes

[psychemedia]

I wonder if a utility function to grab hold of all a user's pipe definitions might be worth adding to the library? From a quick experiment ( https://gist.github.com/2351614 ) it seems as if you can export the published pipes associated with a given user id, but to get all the pipes for a user you need to be logged in as that user?

Sounds like a good idea :)

It also sounds like a job for a Yahoo! pipe. Is that possible? Maybe it would need some supporting routines. If so, perhaps they could be hosted on Google App Engine.

I've done a simple implementation on Scraperwiki that grabs a particular user's public/published pipes and drops the descriptions into a db table. Description here: http://blog.ouseful.info/2012/04/10/exporting-yahoo-pipe-definitions-compiling-them-to-python-and-running-them-in-scraperwiki/
