[opensocial] Request: Add a container.supports() method
(This request is on the wishlist page, but this provides a forum for
discussing it)
Offering a method tentatively called 'container.supports()' will allow
developers to test various features of the container.
For example, ning (as of this moment) doesn't appear to support canvas
pages. That's where I put the preferences interface for my users, so I
need to do something about that. Like let you set the preferences from
the profile view.
But I don't want every container to offer a 'set preferences' button
on the profile, only those that have no canvas. Therefore I'd do
something like this:
if( ! container.supports('canvas') ){
showPrefsButtonOnProfile()
}

[opensocial] Re: OpenSocial using gData API
You're absolutely right and I think google should at least be more sympathetic about us, tell us that this feature is not working yet and let us know if or when this will be ready instead of letting us - developers - get all excited about it and then get hugely disappointed with all this OpenSocial turmoil...

Yuppers, getting the same error with the scope equaling sandbox.orkut.com/feeds other API's like the Calendar work fine for me as well. I guess, I'll come back at some point in the future and try again.

However, I am running into a roadblock at every point. The tutorial suggests using this URL:https://www.google.com/accounts/AuthSubRequest?scope=http%3A%2F%2Fsan... If I copy and paste this URL, after logging in, I see the error: The scope parameter was bad or missing. Yes, I am registered for the sandbox, and I have also tried it with a variety of next urls, and If I replace the scope URL by another one, say the Calendar API URL it works but of course gives an incorrect scope. I suspect there is a documentation error in the OpenSocial gData pages. I've tried every combination of http/https, with/without sandbox in front, etc. to no avail. Is there any way to get the list of valid scope URLs. And if AuthSub is not to be used for OpenSocial, there ought to be a note saying so rather than a broken link in the API documentation. In that case, what is the proper authentication method to use? Do I need to use the ClientLogin method which means having to store the users' passwords? My next question, assuming that I log into a different scope like blogger or google base: If I access the URLhttp://orkut.com/feeds/people/me orhttp://orkut.com/feeds/people/me/friends. (With or without a sandbox in the hostname makes no difference) I end up with a 404 error if I am using HTTP, and even worse, if I use HTTPS, it redirects me to http://www.google.com/; with no indication of error or success. I assume I am doing something wrong, but I would like an error message that acknowledges that I am attempting to access a feed the wrong way rather than an absolutely meaningless 404 or 302 response.

[opensocial] Re: How to access the data from another page
I think the situation and my experience is far worse. You cant build an app that does any multipage flows. As soon as you leave the main page (instantiated by gmodules.com), you get opensocial is not defined errors. Forget multipages, I thought I was being smart and created a frame pulling content from my site (mymusik.us). And lost the opensocial context. Dont even bother adding your variables to a url and invoking say sandbox.orkut.com/Application.aspx?appId=...yourvar=xx You will get a Location.toString permission denied if you attempt accessing the window.location.search string for the top level url (or window.top...) The top level url comes from gmodules.com. Your js doesnt.

[opensocial] Re: Did Orkut update? It broke my application
Hi Everyone,
OpenSocial features in Orkut are currently unavailable for everyone.
The 'opensocial is not defined' is due to a 503 when trying to fetch
the opensocial.js file.
We found the source of the problem and we're working to fix it now.
I'll post an update when I know more.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
Lane

[opensocial] Re: Is Orkut caching my remote content?
Thanks, I had forgotten about the refresh interval directive. It works. My plan is to replace caching with a combination of persistent storage and the activities API to detect when certain things have changed, and call the remote server only in those cases. It could be days or weeks between calls, rather than once every hour or so, but still the data is available when needed. Ron On Nov 7, 3:02 pm, hobnobLover [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for that.

[opensocial] Re: Fetching user preferences defined in the Gadget XML with newFetchPersonAppDataRequest in Orkut
Excellent question. I am facing just the same problem: as I see, the
OWNER would customize my app (that is, save options to *his*
PersonAppData) and whomever sees the gadget on the OWNER's profile
should see it as configured by the OWNER.
But the lack of the ability of passing OWNER to
newUpdatePersonAppDataRequest simply makes that impossible. I also
tried to cheat (getting the OWNER's ID and passing), and even tried
to improvise with instance appdata - of which I am not entirely sure
of the precise scope, maybe I missed something on the docs.
And what puzzles me more is the dubious language in
http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/javascript/reference/opensocial.DataRequest.html#newUpdatePersonAppDataRequest
:
String id - The ID of the person to update; only the special
VIEWER ID is currently allowed.
What does currently mean? That the final version will have other
possibilities? Is it an OpenSocial limitation, or just of Orkut's
implementation?
:-(

Since you can't store AppData asOWNERyou will never be able to

How am I supposed to persist my per use configuration? I'm not doing
it on my server, no without the
serverside APIs and authentication.

In my gadget I have a required UserPref whose value is used when

Ok thanx for the heads up on Containers Group. http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-container/ Found some good threads there that may as well be cross linked here for those just as confused. Hi5 will release their implementation as opensource when Google releases SDK. (that's a cause of confusion right there, from the OpenSocial site it's not immediately apparent that there is or will be an SDK. It's left for us to imagine having to duplicate most of googles backend for this with no more guide then examples of the output and reference. http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-container/browse_thread/thread/43522fdcccf6cbe2# Other then that there does seem to be some hands being thrown in the air over the choice of gData over more open extensions. Still no idea on if implementing Google Gadget API also means implementing the interenal javascript libs _IG_Prefs etc that go with it. Now implementing Google Gadget API seems to be a pretty blind afair too.

[opensocial] using ajax inside of a gadget
Hey Guys, Sorry for the possibly newbee question, but are we limited to using google's _IG_FetchContent() inside of our open social gadgets, or is it possible to use the one's from our own toolkit? A lot of our code currently uses prototype.js (1.6.0 as of writing), and depends on its build json parsing. Not a huge issue of course to rewite those parts of the code, but for portability it would be nicer if we could keep using our prototype's Ajax.Request instead of google's _IG_FetchContent.

[opensocial] All container hosts need to offer an open sandbox
(This is on the wishlist page and is here to enable discussion) Quite frankly I'm sick of signing up to all these services to test my apps. And there's not that many of them yet. Therefore I'll probably just stick to developing against one or two of the more popular container hosts. Obviously this isn't what the Goog wants. He wants our apps to work against all containers and to be tested against them. Therefore I'd like to have the Goog insist that all container hosts offer a way to test an application (via a URL) without having to log in and create an account. Just like you can test iGoogle widgets without having an iGoogle account. These containers would be expected to be a correct representation of what an app would look and behave like if I were to add it as a signed- up user. Thoughts? Cheers!

Google's _IG_Fetch* routines use their proxy for requesting document
across the domain boundary. Your prototype.js solution will only be
able to query the local domain (which will be gmodules.com) which
isn't likely to be what you want.
So that would leave us with 2 options i guess, one would be to use
something hackedie like:
http://www.mellowmorning.com/2007/11/07/updated-cross-site-ajax-plugin-for-prototype/
and the second would be to prefix al ajax calls with:
'/ig/jsonp?url='+escape('original.url')
not sure if either method is preferable, and the second one sounds
very platform specific, so i guess rewriting to IG_Fetch i go ;-(

[opensocial] Re: using ajax inside of a gadget
Hi, You cannot use your custom ajax call, it won't work, but ... You can use the old-fashioned way = an iframe :) This works and you can emulate an ajax call using an iframe. Regards, Ignacio. You'd then have to parse the result: you don't get back the vanilla content but instead get back data that you'd need to do googlemagic on to extract the original content Cheers!

[opensocial] Re: All container hosts need to offer an open sandbox
I'm not sure if it'll work properly. As apposed to the google gadget that aren't user based, the openSocial apps will need to get the owners details - his friends, etc. So if you don't have an account on that container, it'll have no data to give you, you couldn't add friends in order to test friends related applications and it will not be a good representation of the application. But insisting that every container have a sandbox area to check and adapt the apps., before releasing them to the general public, is a very good idea. Also, I think it will be done even if Google wont insist because as a developer I would prefer to create applications to the containers that give me a better working environment. Lee Eden.
