Hi,
I am a newbie to OAuth. I am trying OAuth gadgets using shindig (Windows OS). I am referring the following url. http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/oauth.html I have configured Shindig in my localhost. I am using the xml provided in the above url without any change. I have hosted the xml in my shindig folder under gadgets/file/samplecontainer/examples folder. The following are the code snippets from my xml file. //////// ModulePrefs OAuth Tag /////////// <ModulePrefs title="OAuth Contacts" scrolling="true"> <Require feature="opensocial-0.8" /> <Require feature="locked-domain"/> <OAuth> <Service name="google"> <Access url="https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthGetAccessToken" method="GET" /> <Request url="https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthGetRequestToken?scope=http://w ww.google.com/m8/feeds/" method="GET" /> <Authorization url="https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_callback= http://oauth.gmodules.com/gadgets/oauthcallback" /> </Service> </OAuth> </ModulePrefs> //////////////////////// Data Fetch Method's Parameters /////////////////// url = "http://www.google.com/m8/feeds/contacts/default/base?alt=json"; params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.CONTENT_TYPE] = gadgets.io.ContentType.JSON; params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.AUTHORIZATION] = gadgets.io.AuthorizationType.OAUTH; params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.OAUTH_SERVICE_NAME] = "google"; params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.OAUTH_USE_TOKEN] = "always"; params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.METHOD] = gadgets.io.MethodType.GET; I have configured shindig's "oauth.json" file under "WEB-INF/classes/config" folder. I got the consumer key & secret for registering my domain using the url : https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageDomains. I am using HMAC_SHA1 as method type. The following is the code snippet from the "oauth.json" file. {"//// My localhost xml file path under /file/samplecontainer/examples /////" : { "google" : { "consumer_key" : "my consumer key", "consumer_secret" : "my consumer secret", "key_type" : "HMAC_SYMMETRIC" } } } After all the changes, when I try to render my gadget in my localhost, I am getting "Null" value for 'oauthApprovalUrl' & sometimes I got "parameter_absent" error also. Is there anything more needs to be configured or changed in my code. I may be missing something in the code. What may be the problem?
