Thanks John for writing this up!(btw - all the urls should be localhost:8080/social/rest -- but thats easy to fix)
Everyone - I'm not sure where we want to put this... An easy thing would be to dump it in the javascript dir cause then it would get hosted under localhost:8080/gadgets/files. This seems like a funny location though - so perhaps we want to just bundle it with the social code and put it under localhost:8080/social by default? Also, we will want to be able to substitute the host name in this doc so that it is configurable - any ideas on how to do that? Thanks. - Cassie On Sat, May 24, 2008 at 3:06 AM, John Panzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > By popular demand, I'm sending this out in email for quick review :) > > Based on > > http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/social-api/src/main/java/org/apache/shindig/social/abdera/RequestUrlTemplate.java?revision=656522&view=markup > > I think the following XRDS discovery document is correct: > > <XRDS xmlns="xri://$xrds"> > <XRD xmlns:simple="http://xrds-simple.net/core/1.0"; > xmlns="xri://$XRD*($v*2.0)" xmlns:os="http://ns.opensocial.org/"; > version="2.0"> > > <Type>xri://$xrds*simple</Type> > <Service> > <Type>http://ns.opensocial.org/people/0.8</Type> > > <os:URI-Template> > http://localhost:8080/rest/people/{guid}/{selector} > <http://localhost:8080/people/%7Bguid%7D/%7Bselector%7D></URI-Template> > </Service> > <Service> > > <Type>http://ns.opensocial.org/activities/0.8</Type> > <os:URI-Template> > http://localhost:8080/rest/activities/{guid}/{selector} > <http://localhost:8080/activities/%7Bguid%7D/%7Bselector%7D > ></URI-Template> > > </Service> > <Service> > <Type>http://ns.opensocial.org/appdata/0.8</Type> > <os:URI-Template> > http://localhost:8080/rest/appdata/{guid}/{selector} > <http://localhost:8080/appdata/%7Bguid%7D/%7Bselector%7D></URI-Template> > > </Service> > </XRD> > </XRDS> > > ...where guid is a globally unique user id, selector is in [EMAIL PROTECTED], > @self, > @friends, ...}.
