Unofficial Google Wave Notifier for mac ======================================= This is a Mac OS X menubar notification application. It notifies unread blips (messages) at your account of Google Wave, like (official) Google Notifier does for GMail and Calender. Supported environments ---------------------- * Mac OS X Leopard (intel and ppc) # my own platforms, so I test on them. * Mac OS X Snow Leopard (32bit and 64bit) # I have a report from my friend. Acknowledgement --------------- I learned how to get inbox information at wave.google.com from "Google Wave Add-on for Firefox" by Chad Smith http://thatsmith.com/2009/10/google-wave-add-on-for-firefox I thank him. Notable Contributors --------------- * Eugene Gordin - suggested use of Sparkle, an app auto update framework https://wave.google.com/wave/#restored:wave:googlewave.com!w%252BZQ-P_AMqB * Jeff Leung - sent met pair of wave icons, blue and dark gray * w31rd0 - encourage me to implement web proxy support and test it http://github.com/hiroshi/Unofficial-Google-Wave-Notifier/issues/#issue/10 https://wave.google.com/wave/#restored:wave:googlewave.com!w%252BbedDPRsTA * Mike Roest - implemented Growl support http://github.com/hiroshi/Unofficial-Google-Wave-Notifier/issues#issue/6 https://wave.google.com/wave/#restored:wave:googlewave.com!w%252BJZsdijXOA Notes for feature compatibility against Google Wave --------------------------------------------------- If they change the interface I use to access Google Wave, this app will fail. Anatomy (for Developer) ----------------------- The outer part of the application is written in Objective-C using Cocoa Framework as usual. However, the inner part which accessing to the Google Wave is written in Ruby. I call the former "the app" and the later "the script". The app periodically executes the script as a subprocess, like a following diagram. 1. app --(execute subprocess)--> script --(https request)--> Google Wave 2. app <--(plist via pipe)-- script <--(html including json via https response)-- Google Wave That' it. I mean that the core part is written in ruby, so you can use it for windows or other (if ruby itself is not a problem).
