 Project Phobos Reddit/Del.icio.us Mashup Demo
The Reddit/Del.icio.us mashup demo consists of a background task that every ten minutes fetches the RSS feed for the "what's hot" page on reddit.com and stores the resulting information in the database. The data is then rendered to the demo page. Additionally, the task attempts to retrieve the del.icio.us tags for each story. If it finds any, it makes them available via a pop up.
To use, you can drag an entry onto the heart icon to mark it as a favorite story. Dragging an entry onto the folder icon results in it being marked as archived. And as you would expect, dragging an entry onto the trashcan icon deletes it. You can also click on any of those icons to see a list of all the stories that carry that tag. You can bookmark a story on your del.icio.us account by dragging it to the del.icio.us icon. Finally, you can drag an entry onto the document icon to attach a comment to it.
In addition to demonstrating the capabilities of Phobos server-side framework in general, the Reddit/Del.icio.us mashup demo highlights the use of the following technologies in Phobos:
- Server-side scripting using JavaScript supported by the Mozilla Rhino javascript engine
- The DOJO javascript library for use on the client
- RSS feed accessed through the Rome libraries
- Direct access to Java libraries
- Built-in persistence support from Phobos server-side framework
