Breakthrough with Bunkai
With a lot of help from Bertrand, I've been able to create en esp script
which gives back fairly standard json. I don't know much about which
properties and function s are actually present on each node, so I grabbed
the ones I saw, just to get a tree up and running.
heres a snippet which I used in conjunction with the 15 minutes Sling
example;
<%
function dumpResource(r, level)
{
var rv = "\n{";
rv += 'name: "'+r+'",\n';
rv += 'type: "'+r.type+'",\n';
var p = r.properties;
var iterator = r.children;
if (iterator.hasNext())
{
rv += "children: \n[\n";
while(iterator.hasNext())
{
rv += dumpResource(iterator.next(), level + 1) + ",
\n";
}
rv = rv.substring(0, rv.length-3)+ "]\n";
}
else
{
rv = rv.substring(0, rv.length-2);
}
rv += "}\n";
return rv;
}
out.print(dumpResource(resource, 1));
%>
And then I created a couple of extra nodes under the example node
/content/mynode and I actually got up a small tree and two childre.
Now I have to clean up my code which is full of failed experiments, and then
we can go forward.
Also, I'm not sure where this script should reside, and where bunkai itself
should be put..
I also need to find a good license to put bunkai under.
The source code editor is not mine, for instance.
Cheers,
PS

Thanks David. Yes, actually the esp script produces generic JSON. When I get
that in my Ajax call, I then build a Dojo tree-specific object which
attaches the JSOn structure as a property, so it should be usable for
anything that wants general JSON, I hope.
I think I'll let you guys decide where to put Bunkai, if you want it in
somewhere. I don't know to much about specifics of Sling yet.
However, the resource type is fairly important, and I think that I will
choose to read and 'standard' files with Sling, geared towards a web /
JavaScript editing setting.
I'll check the Apache license, which sounds nice. One issue is of course the
EditArea source code editor, which is released under LGPL, and I don't
really know if that has any impact if any on the license I choose to release
Bunkai under.
Cheers,
PS

that looks about what i expected for a dojo-tree specific integration effort,
that you were referring to very early on... is that about right?

Generally we (at Day) tend to put applications into the /apps folder.
So you would find your script somewhere in the /apps/bunkai folder.
I think there are a still couple of open questions around where to put what
when it comes to something very general, like the mentioned alternative
.json rendition.

I think from an Apache standpoint we certainly would have a recommendation
about the preferred licensing terms in the part of the galaxy ;)

Hi Peter,
This is great news !
I suggest you create an entry in the new Slign Wiki with your findings
and attach your script(s) (I should be ready with this sometime around
the middle of this week. I will inform the list). From that we may
further explore the options, e.g. creating a new module in Sling
supporting this functionality.
Regards
Felix
