  129. [20:15:32] <Vamsi> Hello everyone
  130. [20:18:39] * jasonacooper (n=jasonaco@nat/google/x-2063b718479b88b7) has joined #opensocial
  131. [20:18:53] <Vamsi> hi jason
  132. [20:18:57] <Vamsi> how are u ?
  133. [20:19:10] <jasonacooper> Greetings Vamsi! I'm great. How are you?
  134. [20:19:26] <Vamsi> im fine .. thank you
  135. [20:19:45] <Vamsi> Do you remember me ?
  136. [20:20:15] <jasonacooper> Yes.
  137. [20:20:37] <Vamsi> We have just finished developing 23 apps
  138. [20:21:23] <Vamsi> all the app are pretty much similar in design and functionality expect that the core theme is changing
  139. [20:21:55] <jasonacooper> Wow, you've been pretty busy. :)
  140. [20:22:33] <Vamsi> opensocial is kinda easy .... 0.7 .. waiting for 0.8 to go live ...
  141. [20:22:51] <Vamsi> i just wanted to know how long wud it take to get all of them approved ?
  142. [20:23:33] <Vamsi> also im not able to ass more than 25 apps in sandbox
  143. [20:23:57] <Vamsi> our total app target is more than 40 :(
  144. [20:24:08] <Vamsi> ass 8 add
  145. [20:24:13] <Vamsi> ass* add
  146. [20:24:33] <jasonacooper> I'm not sure about the approval time. We're trying to clear out the queue and get response time as low as possible, so hopefully not too long.
  147. [20:25:09] <jasonacooper> orkut limits you to 25 apps at any one time. You can file a new issue in the tracker if you would like this count increased.
  148. [20:25:19] <Vamsi> 23 apps * 2 days wud that be 46 days :(
  149. [20:25:31] <Vamsi> tracker u mean in the group
  150. [20:25:54] <Vamsi> but all the apps work under the same architecture and same js files
  151. [20:26:26] <jasonacooper> No, all apps would be reviewed within the same span of time. Since they're all similar, this will probably help.
  152. [20:26:27] <Vamsi> besides is there a easy way to submit the apps in a bulk way
  153. [20:26:59] <jasonacooper> No, we have an issue tracker for tracking bugs and feature requests. See here: http://code.google.com/p/opensocial-resources/issues/list
  154. [20:27:08] <jasonacooper> Apps have to be submitted individually.
  155. [20:27:38] <Vamsi> cool and there is no limit for submissions right
  156. [20:28:31] <jasonacooper> No.
  157. [20:28:35] <Vamsi> great
  158. [20:29:42] <Vamsi> any eta on the availability of 0.8
  159. [20:31:56] <jasonacooper> No ETA just yet, I'm afraid. We're getting closer, though. I've been seeing a lot of Shindig activity lately.
  160. [20:34:07] <Vamsi> i have a small feature request
  161. [20:34:18] <Vamsi> its regarding adsense
  162. [20:34:50] <Vamsi> as far as i know we can use adsense on the app xml .. but it wud be great if the open social api integrated itself with adsense
  163. [20:35:16] <jasonacooper> How so?
  164. [20:35:18] <Vamsi> because most of the time the the ads on the adsense remain the same even after the content changes
  165. [20:36:07] <Vamsi> if we are using data requests, there should be a feature which wud let the api refresh the ads according to the keywords from the data requests
  166. [20:36:25] <Vamsi> in Music Mazaa app we are using iframe and refreshing on every data request
  167. [20:36:36] <Vamsi> and adsense wont allow us to use iframes :(

  170. [20:37:51] <Vamsi> so if we can refresh the adsense based on dom id's linked with the data requests it would be great
  171. [20:38:16] <jasonacooper> I see what you're saying now. This doesn't have to do with OpenSocial per se, but AdSense itself. I think they are well aware of the problem. We've seen this request a lot.
  172. [20:38:56] <Vamsi> i even got in touch with adsense optimization team in India
  173. [20:39:40] <Vamsi> but they were referring it to thier US team .. and if a request is raised on orkut's / opensocial's behalf may be they would consider
  174. [20:40:10] <manvesh> Hello all!
  175. [20:40:39] <api_dwh> vamsi, i can't speak too much to the orkut side of things, but the igoogle team has raised the issue of having a better adsense for gadgets
  176. [20:41:13] <jasonacooper> manvesh: Hi!
  177. [20:41:46] <api_dwh> the adsense team is very aware of the issue, but i'm not aware of any progress that can be shared publicly

  179. [20:43:46] <manvesh> Can anyone point out any if there are any sites that support os 0.8 containers. Also, why has there been so much delay in incorporating 0.8?

  181. [20:46:52] <manvesh> also, personally, I needed some assistance in interacting an iframed application, back to the container. I understand that rpc.js can help me with cross-domain interaction between iframes. But can anyone point me to an informed example. I'm totally new to the OS APIs.
  182. [20:47:19] * ajaksu (n=ajaksu@201-24-61-65.bsace704.dsl.brasiltelecom.net.br) has joined #opensocial
  183. [20:47:49] <jasonacooper> The 0.8 spec has been approved, but implementation has been a bit slow. Some containers may add it faster than others though.
  184. [20:48:09] <Aakash> Hi
  185. [20:48:15] <jasonacooper> Hi Aakash.
  186. [20:48:25] <manvesh> Hello Aakash
  187. [20:48:26] <api_dwh> manvesh, what are you trying to use rpc for? we don't really advocate its use within gadgets and there isn't much documentation
  188. [20:48:36] <ajaksu> hey, does anyone know if getting "bad server no donut" messages in orkut's sandbox can mean a problem with my application or only server load issues?
  189. [20:49:30] <jasonacooper> ajaksu: It's usually an orkut issue, but I believe it can be app related in rare circumstances.
  190. [20:49:32] <api_dwh> i should add that when i say "use within gadgets" that im referring to calling the API directly and not using gadgets.* and opensocial.*
  191. [20:50:12] <ajaksu> jasonacooper: great to know, thanks, I've pretty much scaled the app back to Hello World :)
  192. [20:50:29] <api_dwh> i suppose it's technically gadgets.rpc... anyway, i might be able to help you if you provide specifics
  193. [20:50:33] <jasonacooper> ajaksu: In that case, it's probably orkut. :)
  194. [20:50:56] <ajaksu> I'm was also getting 'File save unsuccessful' in GGE, so it might be a problem with my timezone being in the rush hour :)
  195. [20:51:16] <manvesh> I wanted to pass back certain data from an iframe to the container, in the container, i wish to use setPrefs to set a parameter.
  196. [20:52:48] * mkovacs (n=mkovacs@c-24-7-60-95.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #opensocial
  197. [20:52:57] <manvesh> what would you suggest for me to use?
  198. [20:53:24] <api_dwh> well, i have to admit that my rpc experience is limited
  199. [20:53:29] <api_dwh> but here's my suggestion
  200. [20:53:31] <Aakash> whats the status of application approval requests on Orkut, it still takes a week to be in directory?
  201. [20:54:00] <mkovacs> this might sound ridiculous but does anyone know how you unsubscribe from the shindig mailing lists? I can't get any email commands to work and I'm not well versed in how to get the apache automated mailing list software do the right thing
  202. [20:54:13] <api_dwh> is your iframe the gadget itself, or is it a child iframe you've opened inside your gadget?
  203. [20:54:25] <manvesh> child iframe within the container
  204. [20:54:36] <manvesh> inside the gadget, i mean..
  205. [20:54:45] <manvesh> its an iframe to our site.
  206. [20:55:04] <api_dwh> ok, then in the gadget, i think you'd want to register a service with gadgets.rpc.register
  207. [20:55:13] <api_dwh> perhaps call it "savepref" or something
  208. [20:55:20] <manvesh> sure,
  209. [20:55:25] <jasonacooper> Aakash: Yes, about a week, maybe a bit longer. We're driving this steadily downwards though.
  210. [20:55:36] <api_dwh> the service handler would be a function that calls setpref, accepting the arguments from the service call

  212. [20:55:51] <ajaksu> mkovacs: shindig-dev-unsubscribe@incubator.apache.org ?
  213. [20:56:04] <mkovacs> yeah I gave that a shot but with an extra command
  214. [20:56:07] <mkovacs> I'll try just that
  215. [20:56:08] <api_dwh> in the child iframe, you'll need to load in the code initializing gadgets.rpc
  216. [20:56:23] <Vamsi> hi aakash sup dude
  217. [20:56:37] <Aakash> hi
  218. [20:57:12] <manvesh> okay, when i initialize gadgets.rpc, do i need to refer it from my implementation of local shindig, or it can be any publicly available gadgets.rpc.js ?
  219. [20:57:17] <api_dwh> i dont think the path to that code is included unless your gadget view is type="url" so you'll need to grab the code manually
  220. [20:58:01] <api_dwh> the local environment and the server probably have similar code, but to be safest, you'll want to refer to the server's js
  221. [20:58:59] <api_dwh> once you've loaded the JS, in your iframe you'd call gadgets.rpc.call('', "savepref", some_callback_function, your_arguments)
  222. [21:00:04] <api_dwh> the trickiest part of this is finding the rpc.js code to include in your iframe
  223. [21:00:05] <manvesh> i was wondering if rpc.js uses certain tokens that are in the url params, because I tried what you have mentioned earlier, but the parameters were not being passed.

  225. [21:01:11] <api_dwh> what url were you using to include the rpc JS code?
  226. [21:01:28] <manvesh> hold on.
  227. [21:01:57] <manvesh> http://sandbox.orkut.gmodules.com/gadgets/js/rpc.js
  228. [21:02:07] <manvesh> i also tried, http://sandbox.orkut.gmodules.com/gadgets/js/rpc.js?c=1
  229. [21:02:51] <manvesh> also, what do c=1 and v=1 signify?
  230. [21:03:19] <api_dwh> im not sure, jason, do you know?
  231. [21:04:55] <jasonacooper> I'm not positive either, but I can check.
  232. [21:06:00] <api_dwh> im going to see if i can get some quick sample code working
  233. [21:06:02] <manvesh> i read it somewhere that c=1 gets you a JS file with all the necessary dependencies, is that true?
  234. [21:06:14] <manvesh> me too
  235. [21:08:35] <manvesh> also, the use of RPC.js totally negates the point of security by avoiding cross-domain iframes.

  241. [21:22:59] <api_dwh> yeah, im getting an exception too

  244. [21:24:02] <api_dwh> that looks to me like you haven't registered the service properly in the container
  245. [21:24:53] <manvesh> does it internally pass the parameters as JSON objects?
  246. [21:25:36] <api_dwh> im not sure

  253. [21:41:37] <api_dwh> but in igoogle
  254. [21:41:44] <api_dwh> im having an issue with the orkut sandbox at the moment
  255. [21:42:27] <manvesh> okay, can you point it out to me?
  256. [21:42:31] <api_dwh> sure
  257. [21:42:43] <api_dwh> the gadget is at http://gadgets.exitthree.com/test/rpc.xml
  258. [21:43:02] <api_dwh> and the iframe html is in the same directory http://gadgets.exitthree.com/test/rpc_ig.html
  259. [21:43:38] <api_dwh> basically what the sample does is register a rpc call 'remote_alert' in the container page
  260. [21:43:58] <api_dwh> in the child, clicking the button calls alert locally, and then passes a string to be called within the container's alert
  261. [21:44:13] <manvesh> :) this looks identical to my code!
  262. [21:44:44] <api_dwh> i was unable to use <Require feature="rpc" />
  263. [21:44:51] <api_dwh> which i thought was the appropriate way to include
  264. [21:45:07] <api_dwh> so i just embded the script for the feature in my gadget

  268. [21:46:01] <api_dwh> in place of <Require feature="rpc" />
  269. [21:46:04] <Vamsi> jason this one is for u
  270. [21:46:28] <Vamsi> is it allowed to show other open social container data in orkut ?
  271. [21:46:55] <Vamsi> interaction between two open social containers - hi5 and orkut is it allowed
  272. [21:47:06] <jasonacooper> Vamsi: Yes, it should be.
  273. [21:47:11] <Vamsi> for example : a game between a hi5 and otkut user

  275. [21:47:54] <jasonacooper> Vamsi: Yes, that's fine.
  276. [21:51:13] <manvesh> btw, are there plans of discontinuing rpc.js in 0.9 or later? once there are REST interfaces available for data interaction between (oauth) consumer and service providers
  277. [21:51:41] <api_dwh> im not aware of any such plans, rpc is important for many of the built in JS features
  278. [21:51:49] <api_dwh> such as resizing and preferences
  279. [21:52:13] <api_dwh> REST will just offer an easier alternative :)
  280. [21:52:18] <api_dwh> ...hopefully...
  281. [21:52:18] <manvesh> so, is it possible to have it securely tokenized as well?
  282. [21:52:45] <api_dwh> so that an rpc doesn't come from an untrusted page?
  283. [21:52:56] <manvesh> yes..
  284. [21:53:30] <api_dwh> im not sure, but my guess is that the calls wont propogate unless they're being sent directly to the parent frame, or the code knows how to specify a target
  285. [21:53:54] <manvesh> okay
  286. [21:54:02] <api_dwh> at least if im interpreting targetId properly in rpc.call
  287. [21:55:19] <api_dwh> though you should be able to tokenize it yourself by passing the security token that orkut gives you into the iframe
  288. [21:55:34] <api_dwh> you could require that be passed back for a successful rpc
  289. [21:56:29] <api_dwh> if malicious code has access to your security token, then that's a hole someone on our team will be worrying about :)
  290. [21:57:37] <manvesh> :) yes!
  291. [21:57:50] <manvesh> this was very helpful, thanks!
