Ok,
I've updated the patch on 200,

do you want me to pull your patch in locally, merge with my one and then update my patch on 200.

or

do you want to take the patch I have put on 200 (serverbuild2.patch) and merge with yours.

If you take SocialApiGuiceModule, then I have no mv or cp operations, so I might be easier that way round as you have commit.

I'm Ok either way.... except its getting close to kids bedtime GMT, so I will soon go offline for a few hours.

Yeah, I saw these too and fixed them in the patch I attached to SHINDIG-200.

I ended up making a new SocialApiGuiceModule for the social specific guice
stuff and moving a bunch of files into common.

I am finding some build problems, Ok to fix in my patch ?

1. The shared dependency of GadgetDataHandler in both gasdget and social
2. The DefaultGuiceModule that needs to be  split.

If ok I am going to move to common. I will keep a list of svn commands.

Alright Ian - my change is in, so let's make yours work.

Should we pull out a java/common directory that both gadgets and the
social-api poms depend on? We could check in an empty directory for
now just as a place holder so that we can get the structure right.

As for the resources:
- features = gadgets server
- config = gadgets server
- javascript = a joint server which has both gadgets and social-api
running?

I think that is close to what we may want...

Done
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-200

Its not complete since it needs the changes from 199, and also needs clarification on which resources are part of which server (the javascript
files etc)

It will run using jetty:run, but the only drawback is that now that the
wars
are overlaid, it takes a mvn compile (in a separate window) to get the
files
into a place where jetty will notice they have changed.

+1 -- I like this a lot, even if it is slightly more complex.

Looking at the patch and just having updated from svn, I think this
means
that
in addition to the patch Cassie is working on....

java/social-api   becomes a jar
java/gadget        becomes a jar

---------
There is a new project to build a overlay war from features/**
javascript/** config/** ,
perhapse split into 2, one for gadgets and one for social-api (not
certain
about the split)
eg

java/gadget-resources
java/social-api-resources

These just contain a pom.xml that builds the overlay.

----------------
Then there is a new webapp
java/server

That contains src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml

that unpacks the overlay wars, pulls in the jars and packages as a
war...
for running in jetty.

This would not enforce boundaries between social-api and gadget, but
would
enable both to run, and for others to construct a target.


Perhaps thats too complex and there could be some simplification.... I
would be happy to generate a patch once Cassie is done....


One other thing. I have found that the maven plugins that build sites (less important) and perform releases(more important) are picky about
the
relationship between the directory name, the artifact ID, how the
group
ID
changes as the directory structure gets  deeper.

If you want to use these plugins in multiproject mode, then it
probably
worth trying them now... just to make certain that they do work. If
the
entire build is maven2 based, the the release plugin is well worth the hassle Changing artifact names and structure later an be a complete
pain,
see https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//kernel/trunk/ to see what I
mean.

 One way might be...


add a webapp project that takes a jar from gadgets and a jar from
social
api and a jar from common and builds the war.



That's what I'm in favor of doing.


It might also overlay wars or zips containing all the javascript
html


and
css files.. so that in the war project there is just the web.xml
thatis used
for a sample deployment.



These would belong in there as well, as resources.




Then with the jetty target, run that war.

For those who want to construct their own webapp and perhaps
customize
the
injection of the service layer, they can pull the gadgets jar, the social-api jar and the javascript zip/jar/war from the maven repo
and
merge
with their own webapp project (with a customized web.xml, service
implementation jar and guice service module)



And that's exactly what I've been asking for. It's exactly what I
want
to do
for our deployments at google, and I'm sure it's a model that other
people
would like as well.

Okay, so I think we are mostly in agreement that the setup of the


Shindig java code needs to evolve towards something like this:

java/gadgets/* -- gadget rendering code
java/social-api/* -- code for serving social data (eventually all
in
the restful wire format)
java/common/* -- all the rest of the common code shared by
everybody

In order to start going this direction I have a patch that does the
following:
1. Moves the java social code and javatests social code into the
java/social-api component (out of java/gadgets)
2. Moves the socialdata servlet registration from the gadgets
web.xml
to the social-api web.xml
3. Moves the pom/parent/pom.xml into java/pom.xml This is necessary
for making a multi-module project (See things like this:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-05-2006/jw-0529- maven.html
?page=2
for more info) We need a multi-module project because currently social-api depends on gadgets (and eventually they will both depend
on
common)

Using this ridiculously large patch you can do the following:
- use mvn jetty:run-war in java/gadgets like usual. however, the socialdata servlet won't be there and so all social stuff will
break
(including the samplecontainer - we will have to fix this later) - use mvn compile in java/ to compile all the gadgets stuff and all
the social-api stuff.
- use mvn jetty:run in java/social-api to run the social server (ie the socialdata servlet) this has to be done after the compile.

We could do mvn:jetty-run in the top directory if we put in a
web.xml
file. This may be the best option for the samplecontainer and
example
friends.
Oh, and please tell me if there is a better way to do this!

Please review this patch, I would like it to go in soon:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-199

And note: this is a regression! So after I commit this people
should
probably not sync up their svn clients if they are dependent on the samplecontainer or the tight integration between socialdata and the
gagdet renderer. We'll fix it all again soon somehow.

Thanks.
