ooh dear, should I be hearing warning bells based on the fact that GWT was left out of the mix? Even Google haven't used it for the client-side portion of this application.
Yes please create a JAVA version of this application. And yes whey didn't you use GWT? Can we get another application like this that shows off JAVA + GWT + OAUTH2.0 + GOOGLE APIS!!?
In addition to it being a good sample to study, it would be nice if it's also a tool I can use and extend for real work. To that end, I'm not sure why tickets can be added by email only! Also, I can't comment on or add to a thread directly from the app. Is it intended to be an email tracking tool?
I went through the getting started guide. But the critical last step is adding the app as a member to a Google Group via the "Add members directly" option. Unfortunately this feature has been removed from Google Groups as of July (http://groups-announcements.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-in-google-groups.html). I think one could devise a means of answering the groups invite via Python to get over this bump in the road.
@ernest, I believe the 'Add members directly' option is still supported via Google Apps groups, and it was only removed for non-Apps groups.
There is also a feature request on our project page for supporting tickets that don't come from email: http://code.google.com/p/au-to-do/issues/detail?id=1. Please star this request if you're interested.
Thanks, this is the kind of stuff we need from Google.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see a working version of this I can demo to see if it's something I could use.
ReplyDeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteBy any chance, will you guys release a java version of it?

ReplyDeleteIan, I have exactly the same thoughts about GWT... Google's position on GWT is pretty unclear for me...
ReplyDeleteGWT is not everything and there's not only Java in the world. Python is a good choice for this project...
ReplyDeleteAs per the post:
ReplyDeleteHave a great idea for a feature or API integration? http://code.google.com/p/au-to-do/issues/list
I love that it's in Python. Thanks.

Python is a good choice for this project
ReplyDeleteAnyone has a workign instance of it?

ReplyDeleteWhy do you guys care about a GWT/Java version? Python is an excellent choice for a project like this.
ReplyDeleteLanguage diversity is healthy.

@Dan, many thanks for the guidance re:Add members directly. I'll try to dig into where I went wrong on that.
ReplyDeleteI've stared the feature request and will keep an eye out for updates.
