Description Widgets to receive OpenNTF Updates in Sidebar and on other Domains In Catalog
No


This project contains various widget components that are necessary to see updates from OpenNTF like the latest entries in the catalogs on web sites in other domains or in the Notes sidebar. The code in this project can also be used to build similar custom widgets for other web sites than OpenNTF.


For the embeddable widgets the project has two components:

1. A reusable XPage control that gets data as JSON and displays it. Technically this control shows how to 'work around' the one domain security policy by using the Dojo function dojo.io.script.get.

This allows putting this control on other web pages than www.openntf.org to see updates from OpenNTF. The project comes with five sample Xpages that use the control to display the lastest entries from the OpenNTF catalogs and latest projects and the most active projects.

2. A sample view and agent that needs to be copied in the target databases which returns data in the JSON format. The Domino URL http://xxx/my.nsf/EntriesByDate?ReadViewEntries&OutputFormat=JSON unfortunately doesn't return the right JSON format.


In addition to the embeddable widget the project also contains five Notes widgets that can be put in the Notes sidebar. The implementation of these Notes widgets is different. Since the one domain policy doesn't apply usual XPage data sources are used to access the data via NRPC (rather than HTTP).


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Because of data privacy you cannot lookup other people's names but you have to type them in.
Enter the contributors or owners here who you want to receive notifications and questions by email.

In addition to the owners additional OpenNTF contributors have to be listed here. Contributors don't have the same access rights as owners, e.g. they cannot create releases.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
A Catalog Release is for projects that are production ready and that are end-user "install friendly".
