I want to install and configure telligent with sitecore 8.1. In Telligent documentation i don't know from where i should start installing the telligent, there are lots of process defined. can any one tell me the process to install telligent with sitecore 8.1.
The first thing to understand is that they are 2 different products so you need to first install both of them separately according to their own system requirements. Generally Sitecore keeps this documentation here : https://dev.sitecore.net/
To install Telligent Community refer to here:
https://community.telligent.com/documentation/w/telligent-community-90/52408.install-telligent-community
Once that is done you have 2 ways to integrate:
REST Apis and Single Sign On Modules. You could use the cookies auth module to do single sign on then you need to gather data from Telligent Community from its REST API.
community.telligent.com/training/w/developer90/52426.cookies-authentication#
community.telligent.com/training/w/developer90/52429.rest-api
The recommend way is the use the Telligent Community REST SDK which is still using REST but makes it easier and has some single sign on capabilities built in. There is also some samples you can refer to.
community.telligent.com/training/w/developer90/52432.rest-sdk
github.com/Telligent/Community-Rest-SDK
github.com/Telligent/Social-SitecoreSDK-Samples
community.telligent.com/training/w/developer90/52432.rest-sdk
forgive the non-links, it will not let me post that many.

I have a pentaho community server 8.1 already running and i would like to know if this version has a API avaliable? Im using the following code to and getting a 200 but there is no basic so i can authenticate correctly.
import requests
data = {"j_username": "admin","j_password":"password"}
r = requests.post('http://(serverip):8080/pentaho/j_spring_security_check', data = data)
Is the authentication for this api configurable?
The whole idea is that i can use the scheduler since the spoon for the community version doest has access to it BUT i tried using the enterprice client and i was able to schedule so the module is there you just cant reach it.
Thanks!
Yes, and the full API is documented here:
https://help.pentaho.com/Documentation/8.1/Developer_Center/REST_API
Note: If you want to enable username/password authentication on the URL you have to edit security.properties and reboot . (an older insecure approach, but for the purposes of development possibly simpler to get you going)
You're absolutely right - the CORE platform does have the functionality, just not the UI so you're more than welcome to use the API to use the scheduler engine.
I'm developing a windows phone application. I have a version of my app in windows store. I know how to find the version of package I'm developing, but i want to find programmatically the version of my app in windows store,so i can compare and if the version store is bigger than the version of app user has, i want to make a notification and tell him that a newer version is available.
Thanks in advance!
Beginning with WP8 you can query the Store using windows.applicationmodel.store.listinginformation but sadly this does not include the version.
There is no public Windows Store API that provides this info. So you'd have to either scrape the info yourself or connect to a 3rd party API that provides alreasy scraped data. Solutions outlined here: windows store api to access metro and phone apps information
Wait but why?
If you only need to provide your app the latest version code, just store it in a JSON file hosted on your backend, or alternatively, if you're feeling fancy, create a dedicated webapp that checks for updates.
I use xwiki Enterprise 7.4. The official way to install extensions is to use either Import feature or Extension Manager. Both ways require user interaction. I would like to automate extension installation process, so no user interactions for extension installation. Is it possible? I've automated spaces/pages creation via REST API. Maybe it's possible to use REST API to do it, I can't find it in documentation.
Why do I need it? It's simple: I've automated all the steps of deployment/migration process for my application and I would like to automate xwiki extension installation too.
As indicated by Vincent, you can use the extension script service from inside XWiki. This script service is what the UI is using so everything the UI is doing can be done also by any script (as long as the script author has proper rights).
I just wrote a Velocity example on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Extension+Script+Module#HNon-interactiveandsynchronousinstall:
{{velocity}}
## Create install request for extension with id org.xwiki.contrib:extension-tweak and version 1.3 on current wiki
#set($installRequest = $services.extension.createInstallRequest('org.xwiki.contrib:extension-tweak', '1.3', "wiki:${xcontext.database}"))
## Disable interactive mode
$installRequest.setInteractive(false)
## Start install
#set($installJob = $services.extension.install($installRequest))
## Wait until install is done
$installJob.join()
{{/velocity}}
All you need is to put the Thomas' script in a page. You can use the REST API for that. See: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI#HPageresources
Then you call the URL from your application.
Ex: you put the code in XWiki/AutoInstall with a REST call and then you can call this page with the following url:
http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/get/XWiki/AutoInstall
I suggest to use the "get" action from the URL to avoid unnecessary informations.
The XWiki Core dev team is aware of this and it's in the roadmap but it's not done yet. For example you can see that it was planned for the 8.0 roadmap but it slipped (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Roadmaps/Archives8xCycle/).
Continue improving upgrade tools: Scriptable upgrades (priority 1), Simulation (priority 2)
It seems there's no issue created for this at the moment. Would be great if you could create a JIRA issue at http://xwiki.org in the XWiki Platform project.
Now regarding extensions, there's some Script Service that can be used to manipulate extensions, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Extension+Script+Module
However this documentation is pretty terse. You could check the java code at https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/95abd2951123431c1624c124b49ca7a88b41be00/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-extension/xwiki-platform-extension-script/src/main/java/org/xwiki/extension/script/ExtensionManagerScriptService.java#L84-L84
I've not personally used this script service so I can't give real examples of using this API
As a jQuery user, I link the remote library from Google using
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
which is very clever because it's already loaded in the brower cache if the reader visited another site that did the same.
As I discover Phaser, I was hoping to see people on the web doing the same with
<script src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/photonstorm/phaser/master/build/phaser.min.js"></script>
or any library hoster, but apparently no one does.
Is there a reason why Phaser users don't do that?
I would strongly advise against linking to the master release as it will absolutely break your games over time. Most of the 2.0.x updates have been non-API changing, but 2.1 and above will be altering some core aspects of Phaser. You should only ever link to specific versions.
For a similar service to the Google hosted APIs (of which they only host very specific libraries that they've selected) we use CDN.js, which offers the same thing. You can find details in the Phaser README or just go to http://cdnjs.com/ and search for Phaser.
There is as such no issue if you link to a specific version. But you don't want the latest build, as this can potentially break your site by making changes.
I don't know Github's policies on referencing their site like this.
I use windows XP and R for my desktop use. And a shared hosting account (at some company) for my web hosting needs.
I wish to create an R web application and I understand that one such way is by using R with Apache through RApache , but since my current shared hosting plan doesn't allow me to install RApache I am a bit stuck.
So... (and here's my question) what would be the easiest/fastest/cost-effective way to get started?
Buying a more expensive hosting package ?
Hosting the thing myself? (on windows ?!)
switch to some other hosting company that permits the use of RApache?
Any suggestion will be most helpful.
Self-hosting is an option if you insist on using RApache. This might be easier than you think. Here's a link to a blog post i read a month ago before i decided to buy the hardware and server my own files. i just watched this seven minute YouTube video tutorial entitled "R Web Application–'Hello World' using RApache" I believe this was just posted today.
In seven minutes, the author walks through building a "hello world" Site using RApache then walks through a more ambitious example, building a user-input form to collect inputs then deliver them to a particular R function--pretty much a exemplary slice of what i suspect most people would want to use RApache for.
A second option is using a web framework. My recommendation here is Django. Why? It's written in Python so you can access R functionality via the python bindings (RPy2). Second, if you are not an experienced web developer, Django is in many ways, a great framework to begin with because it's truly a "full-stack" solution--it works more or less out of the box. In addition, there is a substantial and growing body of quality step-by-setp tutorials, code snippets, and even packaged django Sites, to learn from.
it seems they provide a VMWare image to get up and running quickly.
I suggest you download VMWare player and try the image. Since RApache isn't available for Windows, this is the most simple way, I guess. I wouldn't use that for hosting, but I would first try whether this stack is actually the right thing for your app. Also, this allows you testing things locally.
Doug,
Should I read your suggestion as saying that a Django app can call the RPy2 functionality without RApache? If so, that sounds like a solution for folks on shared hosting who can't install the RAPache module.
