Hello again, and here's my progress report:
I need the Google gdata api integrated into xwiki to help me with my task of
developing Google Docs capabilities for XWiki.
The gdata api can be downloaded from:
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-java-client/ (other programming languages
available, but I believe we need java, right? :) )
Upon build, said api exports about a dozen jars into it's lib folder, of
which (I believe) I only need 3: gdata-base, gdata-spreadsheets and
gdata-client (might need others too, not sure, since I can't attempt to
build right now - the gdata api requires JDK 1.5 to build). Those jars need
be added to the xwiki lib folder and updating of build.xml and pom.xml as
necessary.
From my observation, Google updates this api frequently
(2 weeks?) so it
would be really nice if we could actually include the gdata
download and
build process into svn / building xwiki (not sure if it can <or should> be
done, since I am not up to speed with how the whole svn building is done).
If there are any other details required, do ask, and I'll do my best to
answer ASAP.
Have a nice day,
Radu
