  1. Google Wave for Developers:Making Robots Chris Schalk @cschalk Patrick Chanezon @chanezon Con: Martin Sarsale November 17, 2009

  2. Why build on Google Wave? • Real-time == Real-awesome • Self-explanatory • Workflow • Focused on bridging communication and workflow. • Leverage • New and exciting technology and foundation. • Opportunity! • New business opportunities.

  3. Extensions in Wave The most common ways to extend Wave are to use: • Gadgets • Embed them in a conversation • Built with HTML+Javascript • Interactive with the Wave and it’s participants • Ex: maps, slideshows, search results • Robots • Are actual participants of a Wave which can ‘do things’ • Exactly the same as a Wave participant • Ex: content update, integration with other systems

  4. Wave Entities: Data Model “Show me your flowchart and conceal your tables, and I shall continue to be mystified. Show me your tables, and I won't usually need your flowchart; it'll be obvious.” • Fred Brooks, The Mythical Man-Month • Wave • Wavelets • Blips • Documents

  5. Robot Architecture Overview

  6. Wave Robot Concepts • Wave Robots... • Live in the cloud. • Are external (robotic) participants. • Have full access to wave. • Respond to events on a wave. • Are currently available for Java and Python APIs on Google App Engine.

  7. Wave Robots Essentials • APIs in Python and Java • Runs in Google App Engine • Events: • "Robot added to Wave"  - WAVELET_SELF_ADDED • ”New blip"  - BLIP_SUBMITTED • "Blip edited"  - BLIP_VERSION_CHANGED • "New participant" - WAVELET_PARTICIPANTS_CHANGED • Responds to: • Augmented or edited Wave content • Invites from other participants • Interaction with other systems outside of Wave

  8. Robot Examples """Smiley: Yet another smiley robot.""" from waveapi import events from waveapi import robot def OnBlipSubmitted(properties, context):   blip = context.GetBlipById(properties['blipId'])   contents = blip.GetDocument().GetText()   contents = contents.replace(':(', unichr(0x2639)) # happy   contents = contents.replace(':)', unichr(0x263A)) # sad   blip.GetDocument().SetText(contents) if __name__ == '__main__':   smiley = robot.Robot('Smiley')   smiley.RegisterHandler(       events.BLIP_SUBMITTED, OnBlipSubmitted)   smiley.Run() Smiley (A complete and useful robot in a single slide... with room to spare!)

  9. Other Robot Examples • Swedish Chef • Monty + Syntaxy (a match made in robot heaven) • Wikify (wikifier@appspot.com) • CleanTXT (cleantxt@appspot.com) • Polly the Pollster (polly-wave@appspot.com) • Yelpful (yelpful@appspot.com) • TwitUsernames (twitusernames@appspot.com) • XMPP Lite (wave-xmpp@appspot.com) • Madoqua Wave Bot (blog-bot@appspot.com) • Emoticony (emoticonbot@appspot.com) • Inbeddable (inbeddable@appspot.com) • Easy Public (easypublic@appspot.com)

  12. Demo: Building Wave Robots

  13. Robot Roadmap • New Robots wire protocol (v0.2) • Publish for community feedback • Implement Java and Python API parity • Internal speed improvements for AppEngine robots. • Robot Gateway / OpenSocial REST Access • Robot access to OAuth controlled resources • Better multiple wave access • Sunset robot cron in favor of direct access to Wave servers. • Gateway support: Improve the current tweety type of access to support outside addresses of the form address+robot@appspot.com

  14. Beyond Robots: Wave federation • Open Source protocol http://www.waveprotocol.org • Open Source Google Wave Federation Prototype Serverhttp://code.google.com/p/wave-protocol/
