Graphy

By: Elliott Slaughter - Aug 11, 2009

*Note: Graphy is looking for a new maintainer. Please see the project page (http://code.google.com/p/graph-wave/) if you are interested.* Graphy extends Google Wave with the ability to collaborate on flow charts and graphs. Graphy searches for a marker (#!dot) at the top of a blip, and when found, adds a gadget to the bottom of the blip which presents an image of the graph. Graph edges are expressed with simple statements like a -> b

 BEST PRACTICE
Shows robot/gadget interaction. The robot watches blips for edits and uses a 3rd-party server to generate images in SVG format. The gadget is responsible for displaying the graph and switching between views.

Robot Address: graph-wave@appspot.com

Note: This sample uses the old robots API. It may be useful to you for learning architecture and API-independent techniques, but it is not a good resource for learning API usage.

Are you kidding?  

I don't mean to troll, but... are you seriously suggesting that the "best practice" for Robot / Gadget interaction is for the robot search for blips (not even document change events from interacting with the gadget) and then delete the gadget and push an entirely new gadget into the wave? What? what? what? O_o I heard, the API for interacting directly with the gadget just hasn't been completed yet... see: http://groups.google.com/group/google-wave-api/browse_thread/thread/8b4cc03c91800bad?pli=1
