Scott Wilson commented on WOOKIE-194:
-------------------------------------
We do have the "opensocial.enable = true" set in opensocial.properties. I
propose setting this by default to "false", and using this property as the
switch for the add gadget UI item.
> shouldn't be able to add a widget if Shindig is not deployed

> Key: WOOKIE-194
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WOOKIE-194
> Project: Wookie
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Server, Wookie-Shindig Integration
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0
> Reporter: Ross Gardler
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.9.1
>
>
> The user is presented with a menu item to add a gadget even if Shindig is not
> available. If a user attempts to upload a gadget they receive a rather
> uninformative "There was a problem registering this gadget " error. The log
> indicates a more useful error of "[java] java.lang.Exception: There was a
> problem connecting to the Shindig metadata service"
> At the very least the UI should report the actual error. Ideally the option
> to upload the gadget would not be displayed in the first place.
