Kudos to Google team for getting this innovative collaboration platform. After getting my hands dirty on it with some web related stuff, i moved to the Enterprise part of it !
I am trying to integrate Google wave into our enterprise BPMS platform, which is completely browser based. Following are the attempts and results! 1. Enterprise applications (say, Business Process modeler) in Google wave UI Out product suite has several modelers and I chose the BPM modeler to collaborate. I used a gadget for this. The gadget has an IFrame, that loads the BPM modeler. Changes in the modeler have to be now communicated to wave object in the Google Wave UI, but i am restricted with the cross-domain access restriction here. And ours is a bigger framework and it is not possible to get the complete code moved to the gadget [I suppose SAP gravity does that way?]. I could not find any similar usage in this group. Can anybody suggest some other way ? 2. Google wave in Enterprise application context I moved on to the next approach of embedding the wave in the BPM modeler. I succeeded in doing this, but again blocked by the limited API set wave offers. a. To get the waveID in mycompany.com domain, there is no Debug option in the wave UI and i got the wave ID from the URL of the wave. Still it does not load in Embed mode. Is this enabled for custom domain? Any SSO assertions needed ? b. I chose to go with wavesandbox domain. Still users have to go to wave ui to create a wave, add participants, get the wave ID and provide it to the application. This is not a seamless integration. Though i store the wave ID relation in every BPM created, for the first time user has to do this shifting to Google wave UI for wave creation. And adding participants is a minimum requirement in collaboration. This solution hence cannot be rolled out. c. addReply API always embeds a empty reply. If it accepts content as parameter, then i could overcome the cross-domain issue and with my Robot, i can start some activity in my application [server side] with this reply content. @Google team: Any updates on will and when i can get these. For now, any work-around would do for me. 3. I am looking into waveserver as the last option. Hoping that it would help in overcoming these limitations. Will update on this shortly. I would really be happy if anybody can suggest alternative solutions for this !! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Wave API" group.
