*Proposal Abstract:***
Apache Tapestry is an open source java framework. Tapestry component make
easer to developers creating dynamic, robust, highly scalable web
applications in Java.Google Map component provides an interface to the
Google map API with Tapestry5. PDF viewer component provide to Tapestry user
view PDF document through the web browser. Both components are mainly based
on Java Script.
*
*
*Deliverables*
- Implementation of Google Map component
- Implementation of JavaScript-only PDF viewer component
- Documentation to support continuation of the project
*Overview*
*
*
*Google Map component***
This component provide users to a clickable map for entering
latitude and longitude as well as it can add content to the map through a
variety of services, allowing you to create robust maps applications on your
T5 web application.
Google Map component can be used to create interactive maps with various map
markers. I’m hoping to implement this module by using Tapestry5 Ajax package
and Java Script (Tapestry5AndJavaScriptExplained) make an interaction with
Google Map API.
*JavaScript-only PDF viewer component*
These components allow to viewing PDF file directly in web
browser .Now look at my implementation of this component. One of the
effective and powerful way to view PDF in web browser by using Java Script.
My implementation includes classes, object and method that
enable you to easily manipulate PDF file, provide database connections and
other use full things. To render PDF, I will do render the whole document at
once and cache the pages, then contents shown to the user. Ajax is used to
load the content asynchronously.
*Project Plan*
*I have planned the project under 4 steps as follows*
*Step 1: Initial Planning and Designing*
*I will look at both Tapestry 5 framework Google map API then will create a
basic design for Google map component.** *In* *PDF viewer component I will
design all the Java Script classes, method and workflows. **
Estimated Completion: 23ed May 2010* *
*Step 2: Implementation*
I would start working on the code. Deliverable(s): Prototype and
documentation for mid evaluation
Estimated Completion: 11th July 2010**
*Step 3: Improvements and Testing*
Modifications or improvements suggested at the mid evaluation would be
completed in this step. Write unit tests for finished segments and Test
Component.
Estimated Completion: 9th August 2010**
*Step 4: Final Product and Documents*
With the completion of this step, will finish the Google Map Component and
JavaScript-only PDF viewer component for T5. Necessary documents would also
be present with the final products. Deliverable(s): Final products and
documentation.
