Create the space and configure it<\/h2>\n
We need to create a space for the eXo Platform Development Team members to share:<\/p>\n
- \n
- From the home page go to \u201cMy Spaces\u201d.<\/li>\n
- Create a new space and call it eXo Platform Development<\/i>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"01-xadd-new-space\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/01-xadd-new-space.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- Switch to the \u201cInvite users from group\u201d tab and add the development team as the space\u2019s members.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"02-xinvite-members\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/02-xinvite-members.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- The Dashboard application is not present by default, so let\u2019s add it into your new space:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"03-xcreate-dashboard\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/03-xcreate-dashboard.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- 1\/ Go to \u201cSpace Settings\u201d.<\/li>\n
- 2\/ Click on the \u201cApplications\u201d tab.<\/li>\n
- 3\/ Click \u201cAdd Application\u201d.<\/li>\n
- 4\/ Select the \u201cTools\u201d category.<\/li>\n
- 5\/ Select \u201cDashboard\u201d and click \u201cAdd\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Now we will add the gadgets to track our development:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Go to the \u201cDashboard\u201d and click on \u201cAdd Gadgets\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"04-xadd-gadgets\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/04-xadd-gadgets.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- Enter the following URL into the text box and click on the +<\/b> button: https:\/\/raw.github.com\/exo-addons\/resource-center\/master\/jira-sonar-hudson-gadget\/sonar-gadget.xml<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"05-xenter-gadgets-url\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/05-xenter-gadgets-url.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- In the list, select the eXo Platform project and save.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"06-xsave-gadget-preferences\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/06-xsave-gadget-preferences.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\nThen repeat these steps for the Jira gadget:
\nhttps:\/\/raw.github.com\/exo-addons\/resource-center\/master\/jira-sonar-hudson-gadget\/activitystream-gadget.xml<\/a>
\nand the Jenkins gadget:
\nhttps:\/\/raw.github.com\/exo-addons\/resource-center\/master\/jira-sonar-hudson-gadget\/jenkins-gadget.xml<\/a><\/p>\nFor the Jenkins gadget, you need to edit the preferences of the gadget to change the project and enter the url of the Jenkins page you want to follow.<\/p>\n
The result looks like this:<\/p>\n
![\"07-xgadget-results\"](\"https:\/\/www.exoplatform.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/07-xgadget-results.png\")
<\/a><\/p>\nIntegrate data into the activity stream of a space<\/h2>\n
Thanks to the extensibility of eXo Platform, we can republish feeds into different stream. The Feedmash service is an extensible service that can take an RSS feed and push the entries into the activity stream of a user or a space. By default, eXo Platform has two of them: Jira and Jenkins.<\/p>\n
To configure Feedmash, you need to add JiraFeedConsumer and HudsonFeedConsumer as scheduled jobs (FeedmashJobPlugin). Use the configuration.xml file as a sample and put it into gatein\/conf\/portal\/portal\/<\/i>
\nhttps:\/\/raw.github.com\/exo-addons\/resource-center\/master\/jira-sonar-hudson-gadget\/configuration.xml<\/a><\/p>\nIf the file already exists there, you can easily add the configuration into it.<\/p>\n
Our activity stream should now look like this:<\/p>\n
- In the list, select the eXo Platform project and save.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- Enter the following URL into the text box and click on the +<\/b> button: https:\/\/raw.github.com\/exo-addons\/resource-center\/master\/jira-sonar-hudson-gadget\/sonar-gadget.xml<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- Go to the \u201cDashboard\u201d and click on \u201cAdd Gadgets\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- The Dashboard application is not present by default, so let\u2019s add it into your new space:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- Switch to the \u201cInvite users from group\u201d tab and add the development team as the space\u2019s members.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
