Data source
How are you all?
I hope you are well. I hope you have a good work on the Shindig project and
finish it as soon as possible.
I have a little question.
I've successfully downloaded and build the Shindig source.
I want to know where the applications data are saved.
Is there a database? If not how can i plug my database with Shindig to build
my social network website.

Actually, Ian Boston has started working on something like this so you
can actually see his patch for more details:

Sorry, we have had some directory moves since then so the link I sent
you is out of date. You can look here for the example implementations:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/social-api/src/main/java/org/apache/shindig/social/samplecontainer/
All of the Basic* classes are file based implementations of the social
interfaces.
I hope that helps.

Hi Cassie thank you for your reply.
I apologize for being late as I was having college exams.
If you wish to use a database instead of a flat file you just need to

Could you explain more ?

Which file of the samples ? I looked at the samplecontainer.html and I
couldn't find the usage of these interface files ? Could you point me to it
?
thanks again for care.

If you are talking about opensocial data, right now it is just pulled from a
xml file and then modified in memory.
You can see the code for reading from the file here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/gadgets/src/main/java/org/apache/shindig/social/samplecontainer/XmlStateFileFetcher.java
If you wish to use a database instead of a flat file you just need to
provide your own implementations of three service interfaces for people,
data and activities. They are in this directory:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/gadgets/src/main/java/org/apache/shindig/social/opensocial/
The samplecontainer directory has examples of how these can be implemented
with the flat file.
If you were not talking about opensocial data I think we'll need a little
more information on your issue.
I hope this helps.
