eXo Webinar: How to Add Social Publishing to Portal-Based Applications

Julien Brulland — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 23:08:32 +0000

GateIn, the open source portal framework developed by eXo and Red Hat, provides a foundation for developers to build and deploy portal-based applications. By adding Web Content Management (WCM) functionality and gadgets, these applications can be extended to allow end users to create and publish their own content, without having to know the inner workings of the portal infrastructure.

Developers can easily gain these capabilities with eXo WCM, which is tuned and optimized for the GateIn portal framework. Together, eXo WCM and GateIn can be used as a platform for integrating applications as well as managing and publishing content – all from a single, familiar console.

Join Benjamin Paillereau, product manager of eXo WCM, as he demonstrates how to get native WCM features inside GateIn. Sample use case scenarios and a live demo will also be provided.

Through the presentation and demo, attendees will learn:

How to set up a workflow process for getting content created, edited, approved and published
How to customize this workflow for the unique needs of the content author, the publisher and the site visitor
How to create a simple portlet to take advantage of extended publication features
How to extend the publication process with UIExtension Framework
How to use REST services to add authoring to a personal dashboard

Live eXo Webinar, Wednesday 7 July, 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm GMT, register you seat now!

Katie Poplin — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 21:13:23 +0000

The talk that Benjamin gave at the local Java SIG this week was so well-received, we decided to host an encore version as a webinar on 22 April, at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm GMT. Benjamin will demonstrate how the eXo Platform can be used as an online Java development platform to create public and private clouds. He will walk through the different technologies that eXo leverages, such as the GateIn open source portal framework, JAX-RS, Groovy and OpenSocial Gadgets. Specifically, attendees will learn how to:

use a JCR data store to model a cloud tenant
store and dynamically deploy JAX-RS services written in Groovy
store and dynamically deploy OpenSocial Gadgets that connect to previously online-created REST APIs
remotely expose those Gadgets to the public cloud

The complete abstract and other details are available on the registration page.

Even though we had some big news today about our VC funding, it’s business-as-usual here at eXo. We’re busy getting ready for the launch of the open source portal framework, GateIn, that we’ve been collaborating on with Red Hat. Julien Viet, the lead developer for eXo’s effort on GateIn, will be giving an “under the hood” look at some of GateIn’s core technology in a one-hour webinar on 24 March.

The key concepts of Chromattic & CRaSH will be presented, as Julien walks through the development of a simple Chromattic application in real-time. This sample application will be made available to the attendees so they can use the sample code as a starting point. This advanced technical session will show:

How to integrate Chromattic with a modern IDE using a Maven-based build
How to deploy and connect to a CRaSH shell
How to create a custom CRaSH command
Several advanced features of Chromattic will be highlighted, to demonstrate the power of the framework

Julien Brulland — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 15:00:34 +0000

Join eXo Platform for a free one-hour webinar on 24 February, 2010, when we will provide a quick overview of the CMIS spec, an intro to the features of xCMIS, and a step-by-step tutorial for creating gadgets that can make your newly-unlocked content even more useful.

The CMIS specification promises great benefits for application developers – your content applications no longer have to be tied to their respective content repositories. When building new applications, you can now access content in multiple repositories, without concern for the development platform and language dependencies of these separate content systems. eXo Platform is adding to these interoperability benefits with xCMIS, the new CMIS implementation from eXo Platform.
