Hi everyone,
I am new to the Opensocial API and am trying to implement it in a UWA widget.
The questions may appear to be completely "rookie" like.
I want to know certain things about the advantages and methodology of
making a UWA widget opensocial enabled.
The widget becomes opensocial enabled once the meta tag
<meta name="opensocial" content="0.8" />
is introduced.
Previously for fetching people into my widget from my app I was using
UWA.Data.request, providing my actionclassURL, passing the user
details and getting my data.
Now after I make the widget Opensocial enabled, how do I connect to my
Action class.
I get the part where I create the Idspec, add
newFetchPersonRequest()....see below
MyWidget.request = function() {
var idspec = opensocial.newIdSpec({ "userId" : "OWNER",
"groupId" : "FRIENDS" });
var req = opensocial.newDataRequest();
req.add(req.newFetchPersonRequest(opensocial.IdSpec.PersonId.OWNER),
"get_owner");
req.add(req.newFetchPeopleRequest(idspec), "get_friends");
req.send(MyWidget.response);
};
and parse the response,
MyWidget.response = function(dataResponse) {
var owner = dataResponse.get('get_owner').getData();
var friends = dataResponse.get('get_friends').getData();
var html = 'Friends of ' + owner.getDisplayName();
html += ':<br><ul>';
friends.each(function(person) {
html += '<li>' + person.getDisplayName() + '</li>';
});
html += '</ul>';
// document.getElementById('message').innerHTML = html;
// original sample code
widget.body.getElementsByClassName('message')[0].innerHTML =
html; // UWA equivalent
};
But where do I go to my Actionclass???
Where do I pass the user details??
Will Shindig come into picture here and what part will it play??
