Marie Will Help Others to Securely and Safely Extend their Reach


2. For Lotus iNotes1. Set policies to deploy widgets2. Add specific widgets by editing inotes_Config.xml


Marie Needs the Following to Extend the Reach of Others● For Notes

─ Lotus Notes 8.5.1 or 8.5.2─ Internet access so she can get to the public widget catalog

catalog.lotus.com (on IP address 192.147.107.26)─ Domino Server; Admin client version 8.5, 8.5.1, or 8.5.2, or just

pubnames.nsf for setting polices─ A working knowledge of how to set up and deploy Domino policies

● For iNotes─ Internet access so she can get to the public widget catalog

catalog.lotus.com (on IP address 192.147.107.26)─ Domino Server; Admin client version 8.5, 8.5.1, or 8.5.2, or just

pubnames.nsf for setting polices─ A working knowledge of xml

● For Symphony (and possibly Sametime in the future)─ They Symphony install kit─ A working knowledge of Eclipse preferences and plugin-

Customization.ini

Marie 1.1 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy the Sidebar (9 Steps)● Marie can control whether Philippe sees the Sidebar

● Open the Domino Directory (Pubnames.nsf)● Create a new policy by clicking the Add Policy Action bar button

Click Add Policy

Marie: 1.1 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy the Sidebar1. Fill in the fields as appropriate

2. Locate the Desktop policies

3. Click New

Click New

Marie: 1.1 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy the Sidebar 6. Click the Preferences tab

7. Click the Window Management tab

8. In the “Display sidebar” dropdown, choose Yes (this is the default so to give users the sidebar, you really do not have to do anything)

9. Click Save & Close

Click Preferences

Click Window Management

Choose to display the sidebar (This is the default)

Marie: 1.2 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy Widgets and Live Text (8 steps)● Marie can control many things in the widgets sidebar or toolbar and catalog by using Domino Policy

1. You should be on the New Policy page (after saving and closing the sidebar setting)

2. Click New for Desktop policy again to set widget policies

3. Click the Widgets tab

Click New

Click Widgets

Marie: 1.2 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy Widgets and Live Text 4. Complete the pertinent fields

Default catalog name is toolbox.nsf; change to Noteswidgets.nsf

Public server is catalog.lotus.com (192.147.107.26)

Marie: 1.2 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy Widgets and Live Text

Widget Categories to install refers to the categories from the widget catalog.Widgets in these categories automatically get installed on Philippe’s computer

You have to type in these categories by hand in the policy, separated with a comma

Marie: 1.2 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy Widgets

If you turn on “Show the My Widgets panel…” in this policy, then Philippe sees the My Widgets sidebar panel and toolbar automatically

This will be checked on

Marie: 1.2 Set Desktop Policies to Deploy Widgets and Live Text

Ensure that Live Text is enabled

Set other pertinent policies

Marie: 1.3 Set policies to hide a sidebar panel ● You hide any of the “in the box” panels using policy● Go to the Preferences tab – Window Management

Choose yes or no

Marie: 1.4 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Overview of Steps 1. Get the template, put it on a server (Create a new Catalog

application from the Widgetcatalog template, and put the new application on the server)

2. Set Access control 3. Create Categories4. Enable the Sweeper agent5. Verify that the low-priority replication schedule is working

Marie: 1.4.1 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Get the Template

● Obtain the Widget Catalog template (TOOLBOX.NTF). The template is installed with the IBM® Lotus® Domino® server.

● Create the catalog, for example named MyNotesWidgets.nsf, using the supplied TOOLBOX.NTF template

Marie: 1.4.2 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Set ACLs ● Give Admins/power users read

and write access to the catalog. ● Give admins the [Admins] role ● Give Admins/power users one of

the following access rights to the catalog: ● Manager ● Designer ● Editor

● End users need reader access if they will not be adding to the catalog

Read and write access

Admin role

Add access rights

Marie: 1.4.3 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Create Categories● To create user-defined categories, go to the All Widgets view

and click “Add Widget to Catalog”

All Widgets View

Click Add Widget to Catalog

Marie: 1.4.3 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Create Categories

● Locate the Category field and click to enter categories

Type in your categories or click to launch the keyword dialog Or type in

keywords here

Marie: 1.4.4 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Enable Toolsweeper Agent● Deploying the agent is optional● This agent ensures that Widget documents are properly created and

populated; if a problem is found the offending document is removed from the user views, is placed in the Administration/Document Queue, and an e-mail is sent to the document author informing him of the problem

● From the widget catalog, go to View - Agents

Marie: 1.4.4 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Enable Toolsweeper Agent

● Select the agent● Click Enable

Click Enable

If you are looking at the public catalog on the turtleweb site, it is not there. You have to be using your own Widget catalog on your own server.

Marie: 1.4.5 Deploy a Widget Catalog: Local ReplicaA local copy of the catalog will be created on the user's client system

and periodically updated based on a 24 hour (default) replication schedule.

IMPORTANT! The catalog does not follow your replication schedule, it replicates once every 24 hours.





Marie 2.1: Set policies to deploy widgets in iNotes (11 steps)

● Marie can control whether Philippe sees widgets in his iNotes navigator1. Open the Domino Directory (Pubnames.nsf)2. Create a new policy by clicking the Add Policy Action bar button

Click Add Policy

Marie 2.1: Set policies to deploy widgets in iNotes

Find the Mail

choice, Click New

3. Fill in the fields as appropriate4. Locate the Mail policies5. Click New


6. You'll see the Mail Settings – Basics tab

7. Click the Lotus iNotes tab

Click the Lotus

iNotes tab


8. Then click the Configuration tab and scroll down until you see the Widget Settings

Scroll down!


9. Enable the widgets folder in the Mail outline

10. Allow users to create widgets from XML

11. Save itClick to enableboth

Marie 2.2: Add specific widgets by editing iNotes_Config.xml

Domino ships with a template inotes_config.xml.template

1.Locate and open inotes_config.xml.template and Save it as inotes_config.xml

2.Edit inotes_config.xml to add the widgets that you want your users to see


Marie 2.2: Add specific widgets by editing iNotes_Config.xmlNavigate to inotes_config.xml.template and rename it to inotes_config.xml

Navigate to your <domino install>/data/domino/html/ directory and rename the “inotes_config.xml.template” file to “inotes_config.xml”


In the inotes_config.xml file, you can specify:

1. The name of the widgets catalog, which must be located in the <domino install>/data/ directory of the server.

2. A comma-separated list of categories in the catalog that contain widgets available to the user to browse.

3. The XML for any widgets that you want to push down to users.




When you go to iNotes and expand the Widgets node in the navigator, you will see the widgets that were pushed down to the end user (#3 in the previous slide).

If you right-click on the Widgets node, you can select “Browse Widgets Catalog” which will open up a dialog of available widgets.





Marie 3: Use Eclipse preferences to deploy the Symphony Sidebar

● Domino Polices are fine – unless you don't have a Domino server● You can use the Domino policies OR Eclipse preferences to

─ Set the catalog server─ Set the catalog name─ Specify whether the My widgets panel appears─ And more...basically everything you can do with the Domino policy (although not

everything applies when Domino is not in the picture) ─ If you use Eclipse preferences with Notes

– The Domino policy overrides the preference– End-user preference settings override the Eclipse preference

Marie 3: Use Eclipse preferences to deploy the Symphony Sidebar

● Overview of Steps─ Locate and edit Plugin-customization.ini in the install kit─ Save Plugin-customization.ini back to the install kit─ Deploy the install kit

Marie 3: Use Eclipse preferences to deploy the Symphony Sidebar (1 of 3)

● Locate plugin_customization.ini: in the install kit; it's in the deploy subdirectory

For our purposes today, you can locate and edit the plugin-customization.ini of the

installed program: <install_dir>\framework\rcp\plugin_customi

zation.ini


● Edit the plugin-customization.ini fileSet the catalog

server and name

Specify the categories to

installSpecify whether the “my Widgets” sidebar panel is

visible by default, and whether Philippe can install

from the catalog


● Save the file and deploy Symphony● There are other parameters you can set in plugin-customization.ini regarding

widgets. For more information see this help topic● http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/domhelp/v8r0/index.jsp?

29. From those contents, you may need to modify the argument, -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath by replacing the forward slashes with backslashes

30. If exists, remove the value for -Djava.library.path

-Xss384k



31. Copy the contents of the temp file to the VM arguments field in the Run/Debug Configuration dialog.

32. Also, add the Vmarg “-Xss384k”

33. We are now ready to launch Notes from Eclipse – click Run/Debug!








editors



Now that Kathy can launch Notes from the Eclipse IDE, she is ready to do some plug-in development.

At the end of this activity, you will have a new web-based panel called “DocLink History” in your Sidebar.

This panel is purely web-based, and can interact with Eclipse's selection and actions service!

Kathy: 5.1 Extend the Sidebar with Plug-in Development – Add a View to the Sidebar (15 Steps)


First, let's import the sample plugins provided in the Show108 zip file.

1. Select File – Import and under General, select “Existing Projects into Workspace.” Click Next.

2. Click Browse, and go to the directory where you unzipped the show108.zip file.

3. Select all the projects and click Finish.



4. Expand the project com.ibm.lotuslabs.show108 in the Package Explorer view and Open HistoryView.java

HistoryView extends the abstract class org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart. When extending that class, you only need to fill in two methods:

● createPartControl(Composite parent) – instantiates the UI controls for the panel

● setFocus() -- dictates what control should get focus when the view is activated.

We have already filled these in for you :)



Open the plugin's plugin.xml file and search for “org.eclipse.ui.views”. We have added the following extension:



To add the view to the sidebar, we must add a “com.ibm.rcp.ui.shelfViews” extension.

5. Open the MANIFEST.MF file in com.ibm.lotuslabs.show108:

6. Click on the Extensions tab

7. Click Add… to add a new extension



10. See that a new com.ibm.rcp.ui.shelfViews extension is added to the field.

9. Select it and click Finish

8. Start typing “com.ibm.rcp.ui.shelfViews” in the text field next to “Extension Point filter:”



11. The “view” property for the shelfView extension...

...must correspond to the “id” property for the DocLink History view extension...



12. Set a unique ID for the shelfView

(optional) TOP | MIDDLE | BOTTOM placeholders position the view in the respective areas in the sidebar

(optional) boolean describing whether or not to show a titlebar. By default, this is true

(optional) RIGHT | LEFT page names for sidebars on right and left sides of the Notes client. By default, the view will be placed in the RIGHT sidebar



You can now see new lines added to the

plugin.xml file representing the new shelfView contribution

13Press Ctrl+S to save changes

14Switch to the plugin.xml tab at the bottom




15Now, launch the client and see the new view added to the Notes Sidebar!

Kathy: 5.1 Extend the Sidebar with Plug-in Development – Show and Hide the Sidebar panel (18 Steps)

In this activity, Kathy is going to add a global toolbar action that will show and hide the sidebar panel that we just added.

New global toolbar item


To add a global toolbar item, we need to add an actionSet extension.

1. Go back to the MANIFEST.MF file and click on the Extensions tab.

2. Click Add… to add a new extension



3. Search for org.eclipse.ui.actionSets, select it and click Finish.



4. Add a label to refer to this set of actions

5. Right-click on the new actionSet item and select

New - action



6. See the new action item added under the actionSet

9. Scroll down to the “Class” attribute and click

“Browse...”

7. Specify a toolbarPath (here we use the generic “/BEGIN” groupmarker.

8. Use the default style to create a “push” button.



10. Search for ShowViewAction, and select it.

11. Click OK.



14. You can now see new lines added to the

plugin.xml file representing the new

actionSet contribution

12Again, press Ctrl+S to save changes

13Switch to the plugin.xml tab at the bottom



15. Now, if you launch Notes from the Eclipse IDE, you will see the new toolbar added at the top. However,

clicking on it will not do anything at this time.



Now, let's take a look at the class that we associated with the actionSet extension.

16. Open the ShowViewAction.java file in the com.ibm.lotuslabs.show108.actions package



In order to manipulate the Sidebar, we want to programmatically get access to the com.ibm.rcp.ui.ShelfPage.

Inside ShowViewAction, locate the convenience method getShelfPage():



●ShelfPage controls the entire sidebar. It gives you access to some useful methods, including

● showView(String viewId, String secondaryId, int mode)● hideView(IViewReference ref) ● setMode(int mode)● getMode()

●There are 3 modes you can specify when showing a panel:● ShelfPage.VIEW_CREATE – creates the view if it doesn't exist in the

sidebar, but does not expand/activate it● ShelfPage.VIEW_VISIBLE – creates the view, expands it, but does not

bring focus to it● ShelfPage.VIEW_ACTIVATE – creates the view, expands it, and brings

focus to it



public void run(IAction arg0) {ShelfPage shelfPage = getShelfPage();IViewReference ref = shelfPage.findViewReference(VIEW_ID, null);// if the view is already there, hide itif (ref != null) {

shelfPage.hideView(ref);}// otherwise, show the viewelse {

try {shelfPage.showView(VIEW_ID, null, ShelfPage.VIEW_VISIBLE);

} catch (PartInitException e) {// view part was not initialized properlye.printStackTrace();

}}

}

17Now, let's add the code to show and hide the view when the action is run:

VIEW_ID refers to the “view” of the DocLinks History shelf extension.

We decide to expand the panel, but not activate/bring focus to it.



18Launch the client and notice the new toolbar appearing at the top. Click the Toggle DocLinks View button to show and hide the panel.

This new toolbar item...

...will show and hide this panel








5 Extend the Sidebar with Eclipse Development1 Set up the Eclipse IDE to launch Notes2 Add an Eclipse view to the sidebar as a sidebar panel 3 Add a toolbar action to show and hide the sidebar panel4 Programmatically close the entire sidebar when she opens any of the

Symphony editors



Kathy: 5.1 Extend the Sidebar with Plug-in Development – Toggle Sidebar modeWe can also programmatically change the mode of the sidebar.

Open Thin Closed Sample use cases:● You want to close the sidebar because

your application needs as much screen real estate as possible

● You want to make sure a particular panel is visible whenever the user opens a particular application


Kathy: 5.1 Extend the Sidebar with Plug-in Development – Toggle Sidebar mode

Open Thin Closed

● Since Symphony has its own sidebar, it has no need for ours. ● In this next activity, Kathy will programmatically close the Sidebar

any time a Symphony application becomes active, and restore the Sidebar state when it closes or another tab is activated.

Notes Sidebar closed with Symphony active

Notes Sidebar open when Getting Started page is active



Open Thin ClosedIn Activator.java, add the following to the perspective listener:

public void perspectiveActivated(IWorkbenchPage page, IPerspectiveDescriptor perspective) {

// code to collapse sidebar when Symphony app is activated ShelfPage shelfPage = getShelfPage(); if (perspective.getId().startsWith(SODC_PREFIX)) {

// save current sidebar modeshelfMode = shelfPage.getMode();shelfPage.setMode(ShelfPage.COLLAPSED);

}}

public void perspectiveDeactivated(IWorkbenchPage page, IPerspectiveDescriptor perspective) { // code to restore sidebar mode when Symphony app is deactivated

ShelfPage shelfPage = getShelfPage(); if (perspective.getId().startsWith(SODC_PREFIX)) {

if (shelfMode == ShelfPage.COLLAPSED ||shelfMode == ShelfPage.THIN ||shelfMode == ShelfPage.EXPANDED) {

shelfPage.setMode(shelfMode);}

}}

SODC_PREFIX is String defined at the top that is a substring of all symphony perspective IDs.



Launch Notes, and open Symphony Document, Presentation, or Spreadsheet

Notice the Notes Sidebar is closed, and only the Symphony sidebar appears on the right



Switch to the Getting Started tab

Notice the Notes Sidebar is reopened to the state it was in before we opened Symphony

3. In Symphony: Add the LotusLive Files plug-in to Symphony from the Symphony catalog


Philippe 3: Add the LotusLive Files plug-in from the Symphony catalog (11 steps)

Launch Symphony, Go to the Home page

Click Plug-ins

Philippe 3: Add the LotusLive Files plug-in from the Symphony catalog (3 of 11)

Choose “Downloads”


Find the “LoutsLive connector”


Click the icon and then drag it to the Symphony Sidebar to install it



Wait for a moment wile it is searching



Accept the licence agreement


Click to restart Symphony

Wait while the feature is being installed


When Symphony restarts you sold see a

new icon in the Sidebar; Click the icon to open the new panelr


The first time you click the LotusLive Files Icon, preferences will pop up. Enter the LotusLive server of https://apps.lotuslive.com

Then enter your own credentials for LotusLive

https://greenhouse.lotus.com/files

https://greenhouse.lotus.com/files


Once you have set which server to

connect to, you should see your files from

LotusLive

Philippe 3: Add the LotusLive Files plug-in from the Symphony catalog

● Note: this plug-in worked great, except that in order to achieve a “Single sign-on” - the plugin hard-coded your current operating system password that you had when you installed the plug-in. Which means that when (if) you have to change your operating system password, the plug-in no longer works, and there does not seem to be a way around it (other than changing your OS password back to the old one, which is usually prohibited by policy.)
