Apple's Dashboard

  • Uses an XML Manifest file to specify data about the "widget" (width, height, thumbnail image, title and version).
  • No requirements for markup around widgets.

Dashboard Example (plist)

<code><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
        <key>AllowNetworkAccess</key>
        <true/>
        <key>CFBundleDisplayName</key>
        <string>AIM Fighter</string>
        <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
        <string>com.aimfight.widget</string>
        <key>CFBundleName</key>
        <string>AOL Fighter</string>
        <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
        <string>2.0</string>
        <key>CFBundleVersion</key>
        <string>2.0</string>
        <key>CloseBoxInsetX</key>
        <integer>5</integer>
        <key>CloseBoxInsetY</key>
        <integer>5</integer>
        <key>MainHTML</key>
        <string>fight.html</string>
</dict>
</plist></code>

AOL's Channel Content Modules - [Sports example]

  • Each module (widget) has a markup envelope and some required elements that make it a module and allow for consistent styles across products.

Konfabulator

  • (need someone else to fill this in, have never built one or taken them apart)

WSRP

  • SOAP envelopes to transport modules, but there is no specific formatting required for the actual content of the "portlet" (module or widget).
