Re: [ecf-dev] TweetHub - A Twitter Client Built On ECF
|
Hi Ivan
Good to hear you're interested. I guess the best place to
start is to get a copy of the code as pointed out by
Scott, and take a look at what we've done so far.
Maybe there's particular areas in the list of requirements
that you would be interested in helping out with?
Regards
James

Hello Scott,
as a big fan of the platform it would be a great
pleasure for me to
contribute something for
the project. But I would need some guide and help how to
do this due to
the fact that I'm not too long into
eclipse plug-in development.
I started reading what ecf is all about and have checked
out the related
projects from cvs and
have just read the coding conventions stuff ... still I
don't where to
really start to get more into it.
Perhaps you can guide me little through all this.
Sure...it would be a pleasure. Places to look:
1) We have an early twitter provider implementation
available here:
CVS: :pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/ecf
module for provider plugin based upon twitter4j:
plugins/org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter
module for new 'twitter hub' UI:
plugins/org.eclipse.ecf.provider.twitter.ui.hub
2) The twitter provider implements the ECF presence API:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/ECF_API_Docs
This is one of several APIs that the ECF project
exposes...but it is the main one relevant to
twitter-based communication (in addition to the ECF core
API).
3) There are several people actively working on the
twitter hub (and the provider) as we speak. Here's the
wiki page for coordinating the TweetHub requirements:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/TweetHub. And people working on
TweetHub right now are James Sugrue (who is an ECF
contributor), and Marcelo Mayworm (ECF committer). They
both read and are active on this mailing list...so I'll
let them respond with direct contact information if
that's what they would like to do.
4) I am hopeful to be working on a book for ECF as soon
as I can get some time...doesn't help you very much, I
know, some consolation is that at least we're thinking
about the needs here :).
Scott
Best Regards
Ivan

Hi Ivan,
Are you interested in contributing any of this work to
ECF (i.e. under
EPL, etc)? We would be happy to have you and your
contributions as
part of this effort. Note that we also are using
twitter4j, so
technical integration would likely be easy.
Thanks,
Scott
