Design a Twitter landing page for Buffer, to help increase business account signup rates, on a team of three UX Designers.
To gain insight into optimized landing page best practices, we each analyzed a competitor and a comparative landing page.
Five factors for comparison: navigation, social proof, scannability, call to action, product demonstration
Design insights: repeated calls to action, concise text and white space, distinct content sections, responsive design
We surveyed 19 target users, and conducted five in-depth user interviews to gain insights into what industry professionals look for when researching new tools.
Our survey focused on demographics, context, twitter habits and behaviors, attitudes toward social media, tool research habits, and current challenges.
Sample Questions:
Is social media your primary responsibility at work?
Which phrase best describes how you feel about social media marketing?
Why did you choose your current social media scheduling platform?
How do you learn about new marketing tools?
What matters when you’re looking for a new tool?
What are the biggest challenges managing your company's Twitter account(s)?
We synthesized our survey and interview results with affinity mapping, grouping together similar responses and data to pinpoint trends and outliers and further understand our users’ needs.
After synthesizing our data, we each created a user persona and scenario using the same format: demographics, attitudes, story, goals, frustrations, ideal experience.
We used our survey results to pinpoint four recurring user pain points when finding and working with a new social media marketing platform:
Value: will it be worth my time and money?
Ease of use: will it be easy to onboard and get started?
Collaboration: can I use it with my team?
Validation: how do I know this is a good tool?
These pain points, along with Buffer’s business goals, informed our problem statement: Buffer’s current Pinterest landing page layout is not easily scannable and does not prioritize the most important content for user decision making—-ease of use and value.
Our design solution to the above pain points and problem statement is:
Showcase the user-friendliness of Buffer’s platform.
Demonstrate key platform features, such as scheduling options, group collaboration and performance analytics.
Prove the value of Buffer’s platform, through current user testimonials and industry facts.
Based on this solution statement, we diagrammed the landing page user flow.
We conducting five user testing interviews with paper prototypes of three different layouts, to hone in on a final design.
Our paper prototyping results informed the layout of our mid-fidelity wireframe, which we turned into a prototype and used to conducted seven usability interviews.
The results of our usability testing informed design changes for our high-fidelity mockup. Most notably:
Change CTA to “SIGN UP” for more clarity
Add case study for further social proof
Reverse pricing plans, so Teams and Agencies is first
Add a chat box for users to speak directly with a representative

Something has gone wrong on the backend. We apologise for the inconvenience.


What is lambda ?
AWS Lambda is a compute service where you can upload your code and create a Lambda function. AWS Lambda takes care of provisioning and managing the servers that you use to run the code. You dont have to worry about operating systems, patching, scaling, etc. You can use Lambda in the following ways.
- As an Event Driven Compute Service where AWS Lambda runs your code in response to events. These events could be changes to data in an Amazon S3 bucket or an Amazon DynamoDB table.
- As a compute service to run your code in response to HTTP requests using Amazon API Gateway or API calls made using AWS SDKs.

Lambda Pricing
- Number of requests
- First 1 million requests are free. $0.20 per 1 million requests afterwards.
- Duration
- Duration is calculated from the time your code begins executing until it returns or otherwise terminates, rounded up to the nearest 100ms. The pricing depends on the amount of memory you allocate to your function. You are charged $0.00001667 for every GB/second used.
Pros on Lambda
- No Servers
- Continuous Scaling
- Super Super Super cheap
Exam Tips
- Lambda scales out ( not up ) automatically.
- Lambda functions are independent, 1 event = 1 function.
- Lambda is serverless.
- Lambdas can trigger other lambda functions, 1 event can = x functions if functions trigger other functions.
- Architectures can get extremely complicated, AWS x-ray allows you to debug what is happening.
- Lambda can do things globally, It can be used to backup S3 buckets to other S3 buckets etc.
- Know which services can trigger lambda
- Lambdas can run for at most 5 minutes.
Other serverless services
- API Gateway
- S3
- DynamoDB
- Definetely not EC2

Have you ever had to use one of those 2000+ page phone books full of various organizations and people's names, written in a small font and with multiple columns on each page? Finding the information you need in such books can be an ordeal. In fact, even computers struggle to search through the millions of entries in a directory.
In this project, you will create a phone book, implementing several algorithms and comparing their efficiency when using a big dataset.
For this, you will need to download a file that contains the phone numbers of over a million people in multiple cities.
At this stage, you should implement the simplest search you can to find the numbers of a few people whose names are listed in our .txt file.
Note how long it takes you to do this when using a linear search so that you can compare results with other search methods.
To measure the time difference, you can use System.currentTimeMillis()
.
Also notice that you don't need to read the file "directory.txt" again and again after each query. You should load all lines into memory and measure only the search process.
Below is an example of how your output should look:
Start searching...
Found 500 / 500 entries. Time taken: 1 min. 56 sec. 328 ms.


This page documents and tests the date calculation rules that can
be used with the AjxDateUtil.calculate
function. This
function is called with a rule string (as documented below) and,
optionally, a context date object. If a context date is not given,
the current time (i.e. new Date
) is used as the
context date.
Each date calculator rule is a string that specifies the base date/time, optionally followed by a sequence of adjustments to that date/time. The base date/time can be specified in two ways. It can be specified as the context date/time object using the following keyword:
And you can specify a specific date/time using any of the following formats: [Note: these patterns follow the formats documented in java.util.SimpleDateFormat.]
The following adjustments can be made after specifying the base date/time:
Common abbreviations can also be used. For example "milli" and "millis" instead of "millisecond" and "milliseconds"; "sec" and "secs" instead of "second" and "seconds"; and "min" and "mins" instead of "minute" and "minutes". This is possible because the keywords used by the calculator are defined in the AjxMsg message catalog and each entry can have multiple options.

Cell widgets (data presentation widgets) are high-performance, lightweight widgets composed of Cells for displaying data. Examples are lists, tables, trees and browsers. These widgets are designed to handle and display very large sets of data quickly. A cell widget renders its user interface as an HTML string, using innerHTML instead of traditional DOM manipulation. This design follows the flyweight pattern where data is accessed and cached only as needed, and passed to flyweight Cell objects. A cell widget can accept data from any type of data source. The data model handles asynchronous updates as well as push updates. When you change the data, the view is automatically updated.
Cells are the basic blocks of a user interface and come in a variety of available cell types. They render views of data, interpret browser events and can be selected. A Cell has a type based on the data that the cell represents; for example, DatePickerCell is a Cell<Date> that represents a Date and allows the user to select a new Date. Cells must implement a render method that renders the typed value as an HTML string. In addition, cells can override onBrowserEvent to act as a flyweight that handles events that are fired on elements that were rendered by the cell.
For example, in the CellList example of the Showcase, every selectable data record is rendered by a single Cell instance. Notice that the data that a single cell represents can be a composition of different data fields from the data source. In this example, the cell holds data of type ContactInfo, which represents a contact, including name, address and picture.
In the CellTable example, a different Cell is used to render each Column of a row. The five columns in this example present data from a boolean and four strings.
NOTE: CellPanel is not a cell widget. CellPanel is an abstract base class for GWT Panel Widgets that are implemented using a table element.
This document describes or points to three kinds of code examples, so you can jump in at any level.
These files are referenced, where appropriate, in the sections below.
CellList is the simplest cell widget, where data is rendered using cells of the same type in a list. For instance, you can create a CellList<String> that uses a Cell<String> to render a list of Strings. For a fancier list view, you can create a custom cell, described at Creating a Custom Cell.
Demo - CwCellList example shows a CellList<ContactInfo> (on the left). Each list item is a custom type ContactCell<ContactInfo>. The right-hand widget is a normal Composite widget that renders the data for a selected contact.
To Create a CellList:
The data inserted in the last step is updated by the data provider (ListDataProvider or AsyncDataProvider). If you need to allow the user to modify the content of a cell and update the database, use ValueUpdater instead of setRowData in the last step, as described in Updating a Database From a CellList.
Code Example - The example below is available at CellListExample.java
The following code is a very simple example that creates a CellList widget containing a single TextCell and sets data from the data source. The list shows names.
/** * Example of {@link CellList}. This example shows a list of the days of the week. */ public class CellListExample implements EntryPoint { // The list of data to display. private static final List<String> DAYS = Arrays.asList("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell to render each value in the list. TextCell textCell = new TextCell(); // Create a CellList that uses the cell. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(textCell); // Set the total row count. This isn't strictly necessary, but it affects // paging calculations, so its good habit to keep the row count up to date. cellList.setRowCount(DAYS.size(), true); // Push the data into the widget. cellList.setRowData(0, DAYS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
You can add a SelectionModel to a CellList, as shown in the SelectionModel example below.
CellTable renders row values in columns. A Column represents a single field in a data object. Every column defines getValue(), which retrieves the value for the column from the data object. Each column uses a Cell to render the column-specific data. Note that columns can return whatever object they want for getValue(), including the row object itself (for example, to allow columns that show calculations based on several row values).
A Header represents either a header or a footer in a table. A table can have a header and footer for each column. A Header can span multiple columns if adjacent headers are equal (==) to each other.
Demo - CwCellTable example shows a CellTable<ContactInfo>. Each row item has 5 columns rendered respectively as a CheckboxCell, EditTextCell, EditTextCell, SelectionCell and TextCell.
To Create a CellTable:
The data inserted in the last step is updated by the data provider (ListDataProvider or AsyncDataProvider). If you need to allow the user to modify the content of a cell and update the database, use FieldUpdater instead of setRowData in the last step, as described in Updating a Database From a CellTable.
More Information - Read the Cell Table Developer Guide for more information about CellTable-specific features, such as column sorting.
Code Example - The example below is a pared-down version of CellTableExample.java
/** * Example of {@link CellTable} of contacts having a name and address. */ public class CellTableExample implements EntryPoint { // A simple data type that represents a contact. private static class Contact { private final String address; private final String name; public Contact(String name, String address) { this.name = name; this.address = address; } } // The list of data to display. private static List<Contact> CONTACTS = Arrays.asList( new Contact("John", "123 Fourth Road"), new Contact("Mary", "222 Lancer Lane")); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a CellTable. CellTable<Contact> table = new CellTable<Contact>(); // Create name column. TextColumn<Contact> nameColumn = new TextColumn<Contact>() { @Override public String getValue(Contact contact) { return contact.name; } }; // Create address column. TextColumn<Contact> addressColumn = new TextColumn<Contact>() { @Override public String getValue(Contact contact) { return contact.address; } }; // Add the columns. table.addColumn(nameColumn, "Name"); table.addColumn(addressColumn, "Address"); // Set the total row count. This isn't strictly necessary, but it affects // paging calculations, so its good habit to keep the row count up to date. table.setRowCount(CONTACTS.size(), true); // Push the data into the widget. table.setRowData(0, CONTACTS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(table); } }
You can add a SelectionModel to a CellTable, as shown in the SelectionModel example below.
CellTree renders a hierarchy of nodes, such as this CwCellTree. A node can be either a leaf node or have children. Thus, a CellTree can have levels of nodes that go progressively deeper. A node is represented by a NodeInfo, which contains all of the information needed to render a single node.
Each node has a Cell of a specific type; usually, all Cells at a given level are of the same type, but that isn't required. The example has a top level of nodes with each cell having an image and string. Likewise, the second and third levels of cells have their own distinct types. In addition to a cell, a node also has a DataProvider, to provide the data to the children of the NodeInfo, and a SelectionModel, to indicate how it can be selected by the user.
The TreeViewModel provides the NodeInfo for each child node. When a node is opened, CellTree will call getNodeInfo() on TreeViewModel to get the NodeInfo used to render the children.
A CellTree can have its own CSS styles and its own resources, such as images that the user clicks on to open or close a node. It can also respond to browser events. In addition, a CellTree can have built-in animation for progressively revealing or hiding children when its node opens or closes.
Demo - CwCellTree example shows a CellTree. It has three levels rendered respectively as custom types CategoryCell, LetterCountCell and ContactCell (the same type from the CellList demo). The checkbox has an update method to select the ContactCell when checked.
Creating a CellTree:
Code Example #1 - The example below is a simplified example of CellTree, and is available at CellTreeExample.java.
Code Example #2 - For a real-world example of CellTree, see CellTreeExample2.java.
/** * Example of {@link CellTree}. Shows a Tree consisting of strings. */ public class CellTreeExample implements EntryPoint { // The model that defines the nodes in the tree. private static class CustomTreeModel implements TreeViewModel { // Get the NodeInfo that provides the children of the specified value. public <T> NodeInfo<?> getNodeInfo(T value) { // Create some data in a data provider. Use the parent value as a prefix for the next level. ListDataProvider<String> dataProvider = new ListDataProvider<String>(); for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { dataProvider.getList().add(value + "." + String.valueOf(i)); } // Return a node info that pairs the data with a cell. return new DefaultNodeInfo<String>(dataProvider, new TextCell()); } // Check if the specified value represents a leaf node. Leaf nodes cannot be opened. public boolean isLeaf(Object value) { // The maximum length of a value is ten characters. return value.toString().length() > 10; } } public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a model for the tree. TreeViewModel model = new CustomTreeModel(); // Create the tree using the model. We specify the default value of the // hidden root node as "Item 1". CellTree tree = new CellTree(model, "Item 1"); // Add the tree to the root layout panel. RootLayoutPanel.get().add(tree); } }
When you instantiate a CellTree, you must pass in an instance of a concrete class that implements interface TreeViewModel. This concrete class gets and organizes the data into a hierarchy in the implementation of method getNodeInfo(value). When a tree node is opened, the tree calls getNodeInfo(value) to get the data provider and Cell used to render the child nodes.
You can add a SelectionModel to a CellTree, as shown in the SelectionModel example below.
CellBrowser is similar to a CellTree but displays the node levels side-by-side. The only code difference is you use a CellBrowser constructor and use a different CellBrowser.Resources for CSS style (and images) to create side-by-side levels.
Demo - CwCellBrowser example shows a CellBrowser. It displays the same data in the same three levels as the above CellTree example, except that it displays the levels side-by-side.
To Create a CellBrowser
// Create the browser using the model. CellBrowser browser = new CellBrowser(model, "Item 1");
Code Example #1 - For a simple example of CellBrowser, see CellBrowerExample.java.
Code Example #2 - For a real-world example of CellBrowser, see CellBrowserExample2.java.
GWT offers a number of concrete Cell implementations that you can use immediately. See the Cell Sampler for examples.
If you want more control, you can subclass AbstractCell, or you can implement the Cell interface directly to define how your Cell is rendered and how it responds to events.
Demo - CwCellList example shows a CellList<ContactInfo> (on the left). Each list item is a custom type ContactCell<ContactInfo>. The right-hand widget is a normal Composite widget that renders the data for a selected contact.
Code Example #1 - The example below is available at CellExample.java.
ColorCell is a custom Cell that extends AbstractCell<String>. It accepts a String value, checks the string for null, escapes it (in case it came from a user), then uses the resulting text string as value in rendering HTML markup

. This ColorCell is used to render the items in a CellList. The first cell contains the string "red" colored red, the second is "green" colored green, and so forth.
/** * Example of creating a custom {@link Cell}. */ public class CellExample implements EntryPoint { // A custom Cell used to render a string that contains the name of a color. private static class ColorCell extends AbstractCell<String> { @Override public void render(String value, Object key, SafeHtmlBuilder sb) { // Always do a null check on the value. Cell widgets can pass null to cells // if the underlying data contains a null, or if the data arrives out of order. if (value == null) { return; } // If the value comes from the user, we escape it to avoid XSS attacks. SafeHtml safeValue = SafeHtmlUtils.fromString(value); // Append some HTML that sets the text color. sb.appendHtmlConstant("
"); sb.append(safeValue); sb.appendHtmlConstant("
"); } } // The list of data to display. private static final List<String> COLORS = Arrays.asList("red", "green", "blue", "violet", "black", "gray"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell to render each value. ColorCell cell = new ColorCell(); // Use the cell in a CellList. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(cell); // Push the data into the widget. cellList.setRowData(0, COLORS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
Code Example #2 - See EditableCellExample.java, a more complex example that shows show to write a custom Cell that can change state based on user actions. It uses onBrowserEvent to handle click events and the Enter key.
The SelectionModel is a simple interface that views use to determine if an item is selected. Cell widgets provide several selection models for selecting the children of a node: DefaultSelectionModel, NoSelectionModel, SingleSelectionModel and MultiSelectionModel. One of these is likely to fit your need.
For demonstrations of selection, the CwCellList widget creates a SingleSelectionModel, whereas CwCellTable implements a MultiSelectionModel using checkboxes.
Views or application code can call setSelected() to select an item. Views call isSelected() to determine if an item is selected. Views also subscribe to the SelectionModel so they can be informed of selection changes that arrive from outside the view. In fact, you can extend DefaultSelectionModel and override isDefaultSelected().
This simple approach offers a lot of flexibility. A complex implementation can handle "select all" across multiple pages using a boolean to indicate that everything is selected, and then keep track of negative selections.
By using a subscription model, we can link selection across multiple views. If multiple views subscribe to a single SelectionModel, then selecting a row in one view will select the row in other views. This behavior is optional and can be avoided by using a single SelectionModel instance per view.
Demo - CwCellList example shows a cell widget that has a SelectionModel added to it. Clicking on an item selects it.
To Add a Selection to a Cell Widget:
Code Example - The example of SelectionModel below is available at CellListExample.java.
/** * Example of {@link CellList}. This example shows a list of the days of the week. */ public class CellListExample implements EntryPoint { // The list of data to display. private static final List<String> DAYS = Arrays.asList("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell to render each value. TextCell textCell = new TextCell(); // Create a CellList that uses the cell. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(textCell); cellList.setKeyboardSelectionPolicy(KeyboardSelectionPolicy.ENABLED); // Add a selection model to handle user selection. final SingleSelectionModel<String> selectionModel = new SingleSelectionModel<String>(); cellList.setSelectionModel(selectionModel); selectionModel.addSelectionChangeHandler(new SelectionChangeEvent.Handler() { public void onSelectionChange(SelectionChangeEvent event) { String selected = selectionModel.getSelectedObject(); if (selected != null) { Window.alert("You selected: " + selected); } } }); // Set the total row count. This isn't strictly necessary, but it affects // paging calculations, so its good habit to keep the row count up to date. cellList.setRowCount(DAYS.size(), true); // Push the data into the widget. cellList.setRowData(0, DAYS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
Keys
Every DTO (Data Transfer Object) must have a key associated with it in order to be able to identify it as the same object, even though some of its properties may have changed. For example, given a table of current stock prices, the stock price may change in one of the columns, but the row represents the same fundamental DTO.
Keys allow us to associate ViewData, such as selection state and validation information, with a DTO. If you select some items in a table or list, then when the list refreshes with new data, you can maintain the same selection.
Code Example - The example of KeyProvider below is available at KeyProviderExample.java.
/** * Example of using a {@link ProvidesKey}. */ public class KeyProviderExample implements EntryPoint { // A simple data type that represents a contact. private static class Contact { private static int nextId = 0; private final int id; private String name; public Contact(String name) { nextId++; this.id = nextId; this.name = name; } } // A custom Cell used to render a Contact. private static class ContactCell extends AbstractCell{ @Override public void render(Contact value, Object key, SafeHtmlBuilder sb) { if (value != null) { sb.appendEscaped(value.name); } } } // The list of data to display. private static final List CONTACTS = Arrays.asList(new Contact( "John"), new Contact("Joe"), new Contact("Michael"), new Contact("Sarah"), new Contact("George")); public void onModuleLoad() { // Define a key provider for a Contact. We use the unique ID as the key, // which allows to maintain selection even if the name changes. ProvidesKey keyProvider = new ProvidesKey () { public Object getKey(Contact item) { // Always do a null check. return (item == null) ? null : item.id; } }; // Create a CellList using the keyProvider. CellList cellList = new CellList (new ContactCell(), keyProvider); // Push data into the CellList. cellList.setRowCount(CONTACTS.size(), true); cellList.setRowData(0, CONTACTS); // Add a selection model using the same keyProvider. SelectionModel selectionModel = new SingleSelectionModel ( keyProvider); cellList.setSelectionModel(selectionModel); // Select a contact. The selectionModel will select based on the ID because // we used a keyProvider. Contact sarah = CONTACTS.get(3); selectionModel.setSelected(sarah, true); // Modify the name of the contact. sarah.name = "Sara"; // Redraw the CellList. Sarah/Sara will still be selected because we // identify her by ID. If we did not use a keyProvider, Sara would not be // selected. cellList.redraw(); // Add the widgets to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
We saw in a previous section Creating a CellList and Setting Data how to push data into a CellList. However, in most applications, you want to display dynamic data or a range of data, not just a static list. This section explains how to attach a data source to a cell widgets.
Cell widgets do not impose any restrictions on the data source. Instead, the data source listens to the cell widget for changes in the visible range, then pushes new data to the cell widget. The data source detects changes in the visible range by adding a RangeChangeEvent.Handler via addRangeChangeHandler(). The data source can then access data asynchronously, eventually calling HasData#setRowData() with the new data.
Fortunately, we provide a few convenience classes to make this even easier. ListDataProvider is a concrete data source that is backed by a
java.util.List
, which is useful if your data lives entirely on the client side. If your data lives on a server, you can extend the abstract class
AsyncDataProvider, which you can override to connect to an asynchronous data source, such as a database running on a server.
Alternatively, you can create a custom data source by handling RangeChangeEvents directly. If you are writing your own presenter logic to control a Cell widget, you might find it easier to write your own data source instead of using a data provider.
ListDataProvider
binds your cell widget to a java.util.List
. Any changes to the internal list, which can be accessed via getList(), will be reflected in
the views. The views are updated at the end of the current event block, so you can make multiple synchronous changes without causing multiple refreshes
of the views.
Code Example - The example below updates the view through a ListDataProvider.
/** * Entry point classes define onModuleLoad(). */ public class CellListExample implements EntryPoint { // The list of data to display. private static final List<String> DAYS = Arrays.asList("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell to render each value in the list. TextCell textCell = new TextCell(); // Create a CellList that uses the cell. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(textCell); // Set the range to display. In this case, our visible range is smaller than // the data set. cellList.setVisibleRange(1, 3); // Create a data provider. ListDataProvider<String> dataProvider = new ListDataProvider<String>(); // Connect the list to the data provider. dataProvider.addDataDisplay(cellList); // Add the data to the data provider, which automatically pushes it to the // widget. Our data provider will have seven values, but it will only push // the four that are in range to the list. List<String> list = dataProvider.getList(); for (String day : DAYS) { list.add(day); } // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
AsyncListDataProvider binds your cell widget to an asynchronous data source. When the cell widget requests new data, the AsyncDataProvider fetches the new data and pushes it to the widget. Just implement the onRangeChanged() method and request the data in the new Range for the specified cell widget. When the data is returned, call updateRowCount() and/or updateRowData() to push the data to the widgets.
Basic Recipe:
Code Example - The example below updates the view through a AsyncDataProvider.
/** * Entry point classes define onModuleLoad(). */ public class CellListExample implements EntryPoint { // The list of data to display. private static final List<String> DAYS = Arrays.asList("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell to render each value in the list. TextCell textCell = new TextCell(); // Create a CellList that uses the cell. final CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(textCell); // Set the total row count. You might send an RPC request to determine the // total row count. cellList.setRowCount(DAYS.size(), true); // Set the range to display. In this case, our visible range is smaller than // the data set. cellList.setVisibleRange(1, 3); // Create a data provider. AsyncDataProvider<String> dataProvider = new AsyncDataProvider<String>() { @Override protected void onRangeChanged(HasData<String> display) { final Range range = display.getVisibleRange(); // This timer is here to illustrate the asynchronous nature of this data // provider. In practice, you would use an asynchronous RPC call to // request data in the specified range. new Timer() { @Override public void run() { int start = range.getStart(); int end = start + range.getLength(); List<String> dataInRange = DAYS.subList(start, end); // Push the data back into the list. cellList.setRowData(start, dataInRange); } }.schedule(2000); } }; // Connect the list to the data provider. dataProvider.addDataDisplay(cellList); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
Cell widgets fire a RangeChangeEvent when the user pages through the list. You can handle RangeChangeEvents from the view and push new data into the view accordingly. This is useful if you are writing a presenter class for your cell widget.
Code Example - The example below handlers RangeChangeEvents from the view and pushes new data based on the new range.
/** * Example of using a {@link RangeChangeEvent.Handler} to push data into a * {@link CellList} when the range changes. */ public class RangeChangeHandlerExample implements EntryPoint { @Override public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a CellList. final CellListcellList = new CellList (new TextCell()); // Add a range change handler. cellList.addRangeChangeHandler(new RangeChangeEvent.Handler() { @Override public void onRangeChange(RangeChangeEvent event) { Range range = event.getNewRange(); int start = range.getStart(); int length = range.getLength(); // Create the data to push into the view. At this point, you could send // an asynchronous RPC request to a server. List data = new ArrayList (); for (int i = start; i < start + length; i++) { data.add("Item " + i); } // Push the data into the list. cellList.setRowData(start, data); } }); // Force the cellList to fire an initial range change event. cellList.setVisibleRangeAndClearData(new Range(0, 25), true); // Create paging controls. SimplePager pager = new SimplePager(); pager.setDisplay(cellList); // Add the widgets to the root panel. VerticalPanel vPanel = new VerticalPanel(); vPanel.add(pager); vPanel.add(cellList); RootPanel.get().add(vPanel); } }
Paging is the operation of loading and bringing into view a range of data that is not currently loaded. Paging improves initial load time of large data sets by loading only the data that is needed by the current view.
Two procedures follow — one for adding a standard SimplePager to a cell widget, and the other for adding custom paging controls to a cell widget.
Demo - CwCellTable example shows a SimplePager control below a table.
Code Example - The example below is available at SimplePagerExample.java.
To Add SimplePager to a Cell Widget:
/** * Example of {@link SimplePager}. */ public class SimplePagerExample implements EntryPoint { public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a CellList. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(new TextCell()); // Add a cellList to a data provider. ListDataProvider<String> dataProvider = new ListDataProvider<String>(); List<String> data = dataProvider.getList(); for (int i = 0; i < 200; i++) { data.add("Item " + i); } dataProvider.addDataDisplay(cellList); // Create a SimplePager. SimplePager pager = new SimplePager(); // Set the cellList as the display. pager.setDisplay(cellList); // Add the pager and list to the page. VerticalPanel vPanel = new VerticalPanel(); vPanel.add(pager); vPanel.add(cellList); RootPanel.get().add(vPanel); } }
To Add Custom Paging Controls to a Cell Widget:
In most applications, the user takes actions in the user interface that should update the application's current state or send data back to the database (or data source). These user actions might be clicking a checkbox, pressing a button, or entering text into a field and pressing "Save".
This process varies slightly for a CellList, CellTree, and CellTable, as described below.
NOTE: In the case of ButtonCell, the value (the button text) doesn't actually change. Instead, ValueUpdater serves the purpose of informing external code of a change or an important action, such as a click.
Use a ValueUpdater in a Column to allow the user to modify the content of the Cell (as is possible with TextInputCell). The example below shows how to update data and handle invalid data. The FieldUpdater's update method takes three arguments: the row index of the data object, the data object that represents the field, and the new value of the Cell.
When the user makes the change to the data, the Cell receives an event in its onBrowserEvent method. For cells that support user interaction, onBrowserEvent calls the update method of the ValueUpdater, passing in the new value.
Demo - (none)
Code Example - The example below is available at CellListValueUpdaterExample.java.
To Update the Database from a CellList:
Code Example - ValueUpdater
/** * Example of using a {@link ValueUpdater} with a {@link CellList}. */ public class CellListValueUpdaterExample implements EntryPoint { /** * The list of data to display. */ private static final List<String> DAYS = Arrays.asList("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"); public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a cell that will interact with a value updater. TextInputCell inputCell = new TextInputCell(); // Create a CellList that uses the cell. CellList<String> cellList = new CellList<String>(inputCell); // Create a value updater that will be called when the value in a cell changes. ValueUpdater<String> valueUpdater = new ValueUpdater<String>() { public void update(String newValue) { Window.alert("You typed: " + newValue); } }; // Add the value updater to the cellList. cellList.setValueUpdater(valueUpdater); // Set the total row count. This isn't strictly necessary, but it affects // paging calculations, so its good habit to keep the row count up to date. cellList.setRowCount(DAYS.size(), true); // Push the data into the widget. cellList.setRowData(0, DAYS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(cellList); } }
Use a FieldUpdater in a Column to allow the user to modify the content of the Cell (as is possible with TextInputCell). The example below shows how to update data and handle invalid data. The FieldUpdater's update method takes three arguments: the row index of the data object, the data object that represents the field, and the new value of the Cell.
Demo - CwCellTable example lets you modify the First and Last names (these columns use EditTextCell).
To Update the Database from a CellTable:
Code Example - An example is available at CellTableFieldUpdaterExample.java.
/** * Example of using a {@link FieldUpdater} with a {@link CellTable}. */ public class CellTableFieldUpdaterExample implements EntryPoint { /** * A simple data type that represents a contact with a unique ID. */ private static class Contact { private static int nextId = 0; private final int id; private String name; public Contact(String name) { nextId++; this.id = nextId; this.name = name; } } /** * The list of data to display. */ private static final ListCONTACTS = Arrays.asList(new Contact("John"), new Contact( "Joe"), new Contact("George")); /** * The key provider that allows us to identify Contacts even if a field * changes. We identify contacts by their unique ID. */ private static final ProvidesKey KEY_PROVIDER = new ProvidesKey () { @Override public Object getKey(Contact item) { return item.id; } }; @Override public void onModuleLoad() { // Create a CellTable with a key provider. final CellTable table = new CellTable (KEY_PROVIDER); // Add a text input column to edit the name. final TextInputCell nameCell = new TextInputCell(); Column nameColumn = new Column (nameCell) { @Override public String getValue(Contact object) { // Return the name as the value of this column. return object.name; } }; table.addColumn(nameColumn, "Name"); // Add a field updater to be notified when the user enters a new name. nameColumn.setFieldUpdater(new FieldUpdater () { @Override public void update(int index, Contact object, String value) { // Inform the user of the change. Window.alert("You changed the name of " + object.name + " to " + value); // Push the changes into the Contact. At this point, you could send an // asynchronous request to the server to update the database. object.name = value; // Redraw the table with the new data. table.redraw(); } }); // Push the data into the widget. table.setRowData(CONTACTS); // Add it to the root panel. RootPanel.get().add(table); } }

A RESTful api used to interact with the UC Davis COmmunity Web Scheduler
This is intended to replace Cows-TV-Server, Cows-Tablet-Server and Cows-Mobile-Server with a single, more unified API.
The API implements a version of an authentication scheme known as 2-legged OAuth. This involves both the client and the
server calculating a time dependent hash, and the server verifying the two hashes match.
At some point before execution, every client is assigned a public/private keypair. The public key is inconsequential,
but the private key must be kept secret, and after it is initially given to the client, must never be sent over the wire.
The signature hash is calculated via
php
hash_hmac('sha256',$requestMethod.$requestURI.$requestParamaters.time(),$privateKey)
$requestMethod: GET, POST, or DELETE
$requestURL: The URI accessed
$requestParameters: The parameters (except signature) used in the request.
time(): The current time on the client.
$privateKey: The client's private key.
This hash calculation is performed both by the client and the server.
The client passes the timestamp used, their public key, and their calculated signature to the server.
The server uses the public key to lookup the client's private key, and verifies the timestamp is within a reasonable
window (we use +/- 5 minutes). The server then calculates the signature and matches it against the client's.
On failure, all routes return a json object of the form:
json
{
"code" : "The error code",
"message" : "The error message"
}
All of the Returns entries in the following documentation only refer to successful executions.
As discussed in the Authentication section, all requests require time, publicKey, and signature paramaters.
These are excluded from the lists of paramaters.
Authentication? refers to the need to run POST /session/:siteid before your query and DELETE /session afterwards
GET /
Paramaters: format(only json)
Returns: API documentation
Authentication?: No
Description: Outputs API documentation in the specified format (currently json or plain (by default)).
GET /error
Paramaters: None
Returns: Error documentation
Authentication?: No
Description: Returns a mapping of error codes to the error type in json format.
POST /session/:siteId
Parameters: tgc - Ticket Granting Cookie from CAS (required)
Returns: SessionKey
Authentication?: No
Description: Used to generate a key to authenticate to any cows service that requires it.
DELETE /session/:sessionKey
Required Parameters: None
Returns: Nothing
Description: Deactivates a session key, and logs you out from cows, and from the cas session represented by
the tgc. There is no real way to verify if a cas logout was successful, so it still might be in any client's
best interests to deauth on their end as well.
GET /event
Paramaters: timeStart and timeEnd (if filtering by time is desired),
Filter paramaters used by COWS rss feeds (see below)
Returns: Event Information
Authentication?: If site is not in "anonymous mode"
Description: Returns a json object representing all events that fit the given filters
POST /event
Paramaters: Cows Event Paramaters (see below)
Returns: Nothing
Authentication?: Yes
Description: Creates an event with the specified parameters
GET /event/:id
Paramaters: None
Returns: Event Information
Authentication?: If site is not in "anonymous mode"
Description: Returns a json object representing the event with the specified ID
DELETE /event/:id
Paramaters: None
Returns: Nothing
Authentication?: Yes
Description: Deletes the event with the specified id

'Notting Hill' (1999)
A movie review by Walter Frith
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Member of the 'Online Film Critics Society' http://www.ofcs.org
Like most movie fans, every once in a while I enjoy something light to take the sting out of all the bad movies that crop up every so often, and so far, 1999 has had its share of real clunkers. So now that the summer season has arrived, can things get better or worse? That depends on who you ask. Last summer brought 'Saving Private Ryan' but it also brought 'Godzilla' which was disliked by most. Romantic comedies have the dubious distinction of all looking alike so what's so interesting about 'Notting Hill'? Aside from the fact that it's a quiet, well written and cleverly conceived comedy, it also has many scenes of brisk drama about how bad people think their lives are and finding out that the rich and famous sometimes don't have it much easier.
In 'Notting Hill' Julia Roberts plays Anna Scott, the most famous female movie star in the world (that must have been a stretch for her to play). While visiting London to promote her new film, she browses the little neighbourhood shops in the Notting Hill district and enters a little travel book store owned and operated by William Thacker (Hugh Grant). After making a purchase she leaves the store and has an accident later with Grant and gets covered in orange juice. He offers to let her come to his flat and get cleaned up and the two of them later strike up a romantic relationship.
Thacker has a problem with women that makes him say some things in a rather tongue tied fashion, a perfect contrast to Roberts' character who says little, listens while looking directly her subject and knows exactly how to respond. William takes Anna to meet his best friends and his sister. There is Max and Bella (Tim McInnerny and Gina McKee). She is in a wheel chair from a tragic domestic accident and Max takes care of her. William's sister Honey (Emma Chambers), works in a record store and is rather goofy around her own kind, let alone meeting a rich and famous movie star. The most hilarious but yet somewhat out of place character is Spike (Rhys Ifans). He's the scruffy, slow witted room mate to William and provides some of the film's funniest site gags.
The film reminds us in wake of the Princess Diana tragedy of 1997 that the media is ruthlessly obsessed with celebrity fed only by the will of the public. There is one startling scene where the media find out that Anna is staying at William's flat and they take pictures of all parties concern in rapid fashion that will haunt Anna's career once the gossip starts.
I suppose what struck me as most whimsical about 'Notting Hill' is the fact that those involved make the film work with straight, no-nonsense dialogue. The film has very little music score and relies on romance to make it all sing. There is one intimate little night time date that William and Anna embark on where they trespass on to private property and enjoy the pleasures of a garden ladled setting to further their romance.
Another plus the film offers are the scenes where we see ordinary people going about their lives and the audience can relate to this and the audience isn't consumed by the trappings of a rich movie star's life but rather she is brought down to the ordinary lifestyle and this is a fresh and proper perspective the film takes in making it more appealing than any other direction it could have taken.
Director Roger Michell makes it all unfold attractively like a play and screenwriter Richard Curtis ('Bean', 'Four Weddings and a Funeral') writes some inventive lines and injects just enough humour and drama to find a perfect balance and 'Notting Hill' has an ending that is not really expected but fate plays a hand in the plot all along and some will envy the outcome of this film while other's will like their present lives just fine the way they are.
