OpenSocial doesn't say which fields you have to support, it is actually completely according to spec to reply notImplemented to all requests (though it wouldn't make for very interesting apps).

So with that in mind, you can choose to support any of the data types defined in: http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/0.7/reference/opensocial.html

You will find the PHP models for these data types in <trunk>/php/src/ socialdata/opensocial/model/*.php
I took a stab at interpreting them in mysql schema in: 
http://code.google.com/p/partuza/source/browse/trunk/partuza.sql

Make your own social data handlers, and map what you can to your own data format, and just returning notImplemented to whatever you can't map and you should be good to go.

Also take a look at <trunk>/config/container.js, specifically this bit:
    "supportedFields" : {
       "person" : ["id", "name", "thumbnailUrl", "profileUrl"],
       "activity" : ["id", "title"]

there you can configure which fields you do support for your person and activity entries btw. id, name, thumbnail url and profile url are probably the min amount of data you want to support to have useful gadgets :)

Hi Chris,

I have one more query regarding the container. Now as per the opensocial API, there will be loads of applications developed which will require the SNS data. So what do we have to keep in mind while coding the db related functions in the container?

See this bit in the <trunk>/php/config.php:

// The html / javascript samples use a plain text demo token,
// set this to false on anything resembling a real site
'allow_plaintext_token' => true,

Hi Chris,

Ok now both ways, i.e the iframe generated in php or by the
javascript, the request is sent to the shindig server, which will
accept and process the token. So will it process both the encrypted
as well as the plain text token?

The javascript sample files use a security token in the following
format: st=john.doe:john.doe:appid:cont:url:0

To be honest, that's only useful for examples, not for real world
applications ... since to be 'secure' it needs to be tamper proof,
and
clear text clearly is not :)

A real container would create a proper (encrypted) security token
with
a private key the container / gadget server share, so that the token
can be verified for validity. the code you would see in 
http://code.google.com/p/partuza/source/browse/trunk/Application/Views/gadget/gadget.php
is a simple example of how to do that.

Hi Chris,

I checked the script that creates the security token, both in the
javascript gadget file as well as the php file. The php version
encrypts the token using HMAC and base 64 whereas the security token
is used directly in the javascript container gadget file. Now what
problem does this difference will cause?
