Hey, nice that you’re working on this. I thought that by “container,” you meant a way to expose your own data as a social networking container, but as far as I can tell this version still mocks the container just like the Google sample container does. Am I missing something about your objective?
Never mind—now I understand that the SPI, the provider interface, just isn’t available yet.
Shifra: The sample container lacks some real detail, and really is being used as a support structure in which I’m implementing each DataRequest call specific for my plugin.
The generator bootstraps something that I believe approximates the data API, and will be getting refined as I dig deeper. The JS API leverages this, so hopefully will be a bit more general purpose down the line.
Let me know if you have suggestions.
