Hi developers,
We are constantly working to make OpenSocial code development easier. One of the things we were missing was a live code playground with Orkut-specific snippets and samples. So I'd like to announce our new OpenSocial code playground app, OrkutDevBox, launching today. More information below.
OrkutDevBox is an OpenSocial code playground for Orkut. It allows developers to write and test OpenSocial snippets "on the fly" to experiment with Orkut's API without having to go through the edit-upload-test cycle. Main highlights:
- run code with one click
- runs code against the live Orkut environment: prod, prod-sandbox and sandbox
- console to output debug messages
- supports on-the-fly creation of HTML interfaces
- code samples for most important Orkut features available with 1 click
- (total of 15 Orkut samples integrated into app)
- often-used OpenSocial code snippets can be picked from a list and directly inserted into code
What Samples are available?
The following samples are available in the application:
- Show Viewer and Owner Names
- Show Viewer Info
- List 20 Friends
- List 20 Friends with Pictures
- List All Friends
- AppData Load and Save
- Posting an Activity
- Posting an Activity with Modal Notification
- Send Private Message
- Requesting Data From Remote Servers
- Listing Albums
- Creating Album
- Update Albums
- Mosaic with All Photos
- Handling Errors
Didn't we already have a code playground (OpenSocial DevApp)?
Yes. But OrkutDevBox is developed by the Orkut team and is focused on Orkut and comes with Orkut-specific features and sample code. Also, it has some unique features such as the ability to insert often-used OpenSocial snippets from a "snippets pallete", and, apart from Javascript, it can also "run" HTML UIs created on the fly.
Do I have to be on Sandbox to use OrkutDevBox?
OrkutDevBox works in production, prod sandbox and sandbox, so you can test your code against any of those environments.
How do I install it?
You can install OrkutDevBox like any other orkut app.
Does it save my code?
No, it does not. It is intended to be used to write quick experimental snippets, not to write full applications, but you can of course copy and paste your code and save elsewhere.
We hope you like this app. Feel free to send any feedback!
Thank you!

That's great! :)
I think it'll make things a lot easier to the new orkut developers.

Indeed this app is great for easy code debug and fast development of
apps!
Thanks :-)

Very good Bruno! The old Opensocial Dev App (developed by Prashant, I think) was completely outdated and not working properly.
One thing that I was always trying to do is creating sample codes with common features, helping beginners starting.
Looking forward to new things coming, and as always, if you need any help, let me know.
Best

IE? OMG! Just kidding.
This kind of app should be open source. This way it'll never stay buggy or outdated for a long time. :)
I would like to help, for example.

Hello,
No, the message is sent as a "message", which is only available on the Old UI. For users of the New UI, the message is delivered by email, if the user has that option enabled.
Thanks!
