Alain,
So I am creating a sidebar calendar gadget using javascript. My gadget
followed the model at
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/articles/gdata_gadgets.html
In my xml file I have the following Ouath tag:
<OAuth>
<Service name="google">
<Request url="https://www.google.com/accounts/
OAuthGetRequestToken?scope=http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/
default/private/full" method="GET"/>
<Authorization url="https://www.google.com/accounts/
OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_callback=http://oauth.gmodules.com/gadgets/
oauthcallback" />
<Access url="https://www.google.com/accounts/
OAuthGetAccessToken" />
</Service>
</OAuth>
In my init method I have a call to calendarService.useOAuth('google');
and a fetchdata method that checks response.oauthApprovalUrl and if
not authenticated displays a popup for user to grant access via
shindig just as the above blogger example:
var requestCallback = function(response) {
if (response.oauthApprovalUrl) {
var popup = shindig.oauth.popup({
destination: response.oauthApprovalUrl,
windowOptions: 'height=600,width=800',
onOpen: function() {
showOneSection('waiting');
},
onClose: function() { //When it closes,
fetch the data again.
showOneSection('loading');
fetchData();
}
});
//set up the links to start OAuth process
$('personalize').onclick =
popup.createOpenerOnClick();
$('approvaldone').onclick =
popup.createApprovedOnClick();
showOneSection('approval');
}
else if (response.feed) {
if(!
(prefs.getString(webexsettings.WBX_EMAIL)))
{
prefs.set("email",
response.feed.getAuthors()
[0].getEmail().getValue());
getData();
}
}
}
if(!(prefs.getString("email")))
{
var feeduri = 'http://www.google.com/
calendar/feeds/default/private/full';
calendarService.getSettingsFeed(feeduri,requestCallback,requestCallback);
}
else {
getData();
}
I only make this call once by checking a stored value in prefs which
is set after user has approved the gadget. Once approved I call my
getData() method which fetches data from my server using makerequest.
I also have a subscribeToEvents handler that detects when an event is
selected in which I call
calendarService.getCalendarEventEntry(gdataId, callback,
err_callback);
My getData() method is called every 5 minutes and after an hour the
call to getCalendarEventEntry produces a 403 error. The error I get
just says "403 error" and nothing else. You mentioned that the token
could be expired but the example did not show how to refresh the
token. How do I check if the token has expired and renew it using
javascript?
Thanks
Matt
