Get the latest gCube Portal Bundle
http://gcube.wiki.gcube-system.org/gcube/index.php/GCube_Portal_Installation and install it.
Get the needed dependencies for the Social Extension
Social Networking Library from maven (get the latest) nexus-search;quick~social-networking
<dependency> <groupId>org.gcube.portal</groupId> <artifactId>social-networking-library</artifactId> <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency>
- Create a folder _social-library in $GLOBUS_LOCATION/lib
- Copy in the yet created floder the SNL Dependencies & the Netflix Astyanax Dependencies:
<dependency> <groupId>com.netflix.astyanax</groupId> <artifactId>astyanax</artifactId> <version>CHECK THE VERSION IN SNL POM</version> </dependency>
- Get the latest ASL Social Extension and copy it into the $GLOBUS_LOCATION/lib/_application-support-layer folder
Notifications
For notifications to work you will need to deploy the Notification Servlet on the Portal. The client code is instead implemented in the social-dockbar-hook provided in the portal bundle.
<dependency> <groupId>org.gcube.portal</groupId> <artifactId>notificationchecker</artifactId> <version>0.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <type>war</type> </dependency>
Create the Social Portal Layout on Liferay
The Layout of the Data e-Infrastructure Gateway Community must be updated, the following pages should be created (pay attention to friendly url and the hidden property)
- Workspace
- Name: Workspace
- Friendly URL: workspace
- Visibility: hidden
- Messages
- Name: Messages
- Friendly URL: messages
- Visibility: hidden
- Notifications
- Name: Notifications
- Friendly URL: notifications
- Visibility: hidden
- Profile
- Name: Profile
- Friendly URL: profile
- Visibility: visible
- Join New
- Name: Join New
- Friendly URL: join-new
- Visibility: visible
Populate the pages with the related portlets.
