[jira] Created: (SHINDIG-313) made GadgetRenderingTask subclassable
made GadgetRenderingTask subclassable
-------------------------------------
Key: SHINDIG-313
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-313
Project: Shindig
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Gadget Rendering Server (Java)
Reporter: Adam Wight
Priority: Minor
Making private members of GadgetRenderingTask "protected" allows us to reuse this code to create new rendering servlets. In particular, we have written an "html-inline" servlet to substitute for the deprecated html-inline Content type. Inline rendering for trusted gadgets enables full interaction with the DOM.

Hi Adam:
Can you tell me a little more about your desire to support html-inline?
Until now we've explicitly chosen not to support them since by definition
they aren't portable: an inlined gadget (that actually interacts with the
surrounding DOM rather than using gadgets.rpc-mitigated APIs) is explicitly
tied to a single container.
That works directly against a key promise of gadgets, to be Write Once Run
Anywhere For The Web (tm).
Even when using gadgets as an application extension mechanism for a specific
site, inlining places significant restrictions on the container.
Sorry to subject you to an inquisition :)

[jira] Commented: (SHINDIG-313) made GadgetRenderingTask
subclassable

Kevin Brown commented on SHINDIG-313:
-------------------------------------
This isn't really the ideal way to handle inline gadgets. Instead, you should probably call into GadgetServer directly (or use the metadata service if you're not already java based), and then just print the output. This guarantees that you're able to control formatting and control flow.
GadgetRenderingTask is already doing way more work than it should be (content filters don't belong in there, for instance). This work would be placed directly into GadgetRenderingServlet if not for the limitations on servlet initialization.
