Where ever adding some documentation about module_id would be useful.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SHINDIG/Common+Container ?

I see discussions about Dan Dumont writing up some documentation for his 
changes, but I don’t see where that was ever done.

Thanks,

Hi Stanton,

Thanks for the feedback.

Here’s a working (or non-working) example of the problem.  Just drop this
in your common container directory along-side index.html.

<html><body onload="init();"><div id="1"></div></body></html>

<script type="text/javascript"
src="../../../gadgets/js/container.js?c=1&debug=1&container=default"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
   function init() {
       var gadgetXml = '
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/445894/gadgets/settitle.xml';
       var container = new osapi.container.Container({});
       var gadgetSite = container.newGadgetSite(
document.getElementById('1') );
       container.navigateGadget(gadgetSite, gadgetXml, [], {});
       // log active site immediately (undefined)
       console.log("activeSiteHolder1=" +
gadgetSite.getActiveSiteHolder());
       // log active site 1 second later (now has a value)
       setTimeout(function() {
           console.log("activeSiteHolder2=" +
gadgetSite.getActiveSiteHolder());
       }, 1000);
   }
</script>

and the output

"activeSiteHolder1=undefined"
"activeSiteHolder2=[object Object]"

Occasionally even activeSiteHolder2 will still be undefined.  A refresh
usually causes it to have a value.  activeSiteHolder1 always appears to be
undefined.  This occasionally bites us with our chrome not rendering
(chrome not shown here) because it’s dependent on finding the gadget
element.

Should I reopen or create a new jira?  I can try to look into why it’s
doing this.  Any suggestions are welcome.  I tried to wait for the onRender
lifecycle callback, and even that didn’t work.

Also (Ryan included), about my earlier question about updating the wiki
with my module_id discoveries… how is that commonly done.  Funneled through
someone?

Which page do you want to update?


Thanks,
doug

This seems vaguely familiar but I can't pinpoint a JIRA ticket for the
exact issue.  I did find [1] which I encountered a year ago or so.

What version of Shindig are you using?  At what point in the gadget
lifecycle are you trying to get the active holder?

Has anyone had any inconsistencies with gadgetSite.getActiveSiteHolder()
not being initialized immediately after container.navigateGadget?  I use
this to add chrome to my gadget.  Sometimes this fails because the active
site holder isn’t set yet.  If I delay for a second (or add an alert) then
it’s set.  I even tried adding an onRender lifecycle callback, with the
same result (I figured if I was getting the callback rendering should be
done).  It appears that it’s either suppose to return loadingGadgetHolder
or currentGadgetHolder.

Ideas?
