Background: |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
Socialcalc is a HTML/JS based spreadsheet engine that Dan has |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
developed. He asked me to help him with sugar packaging, and |
|||
* Cynthia Solomon |
|||
integration with the journal and other XO specific features. The |
|||
* Arjun Sarwal |
|||
python/javascript integration necessary for this project may also be |
|||
generally useful for other projects. I'm developing with this in mind. |
|||
Summary of tonight's progress: |
|||
I learned how to change the gecko security settings to allow a local |
|||
HTML file access to XPCOM. This means that I can now easily pass |
|||
messages between python and javascript. |
|||
Next Steps |
|||
With this spike done, I next need to spike to learn how saving and |
|||
restoring data to/from the journal works, and then I can integrate |
|||
this with pyxpcom to save and load data from the journal into |
|||
javascript. With this in place, we should be almost ready to write |
|||
the save/load feature for Socialcalc. |
|||
Details of tonight's progress: |
|||
ActiveState Komodo developer Todd Whiteman (pyxpcom expert) suggested |
|||
I look into the nsIObserver xpcom interface as a way of passing |
|||
messages back and forth between python and javascript. So this was my |
|||
challenge for tonight. |
