I'm looking for a java client library for OpenSocial. There is opensocial-java-client at Google Code, but it seems inactive. Are there any alternatives?

  • OpenSocial itself seems to be pretty moribund, at least as a public API. Google seems to use it under the cover in Google+, though... – Alexis Dufrenoy Apr 11 '12 at 12:25
  • If you want to add social features to your own site/web application, I think there are much better choices. Take a look at the Open Graph protocol, I haven't yet: http://ogp.me/ – Alexis Dufrenoy Apr 11 '12 at 13:35

You might want to take a look at Apache Shindig and Apache Rave, both Java based and based entirely on OpenSocial.

  • I know both. ;) Apache Rave is as an answer is redundant as it uses the Shindig code. But tell me, where is a Java client in Shindig? I didn't see one. – Christian Strempfer May 21 '12 at 13:55

    There was an initiative at the JCP to start a Social Java spec: http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=357 but unfortunately, it has been rejected.. – Arje Cahn May 22 '12 at 13:50
