presto-meta - parameter explanations in help
Posted 03/10/2010 - 21:22 by nzblue_fish
Hi mashers,
Can anyone tell me how the parameter explanations are displayed in Wires when you have defined them for a custom action?
I've coded a section in a macro using the <presto-meta name="help"> and created a <parameters> section, but I can't find a way to display the text defined for a specific input variable. The help <description> text displays fine when you mouseover the action in the Wires navigation panel but nothing for the parameters.
Cheers, Innes

Problem creating useful column names using constructor
Posted 03/02/2010 - 13:11 by drml500
I have a mashup created in wires. It returns the data I expect, however it would be useful to have a friendlier set of names in any mashlet produced. I was hoping to simply wrap this mashup in a new mashup and move the data to a new xml document as the documentation suggests, but this approach is not delivering the data I expect - though i am getting xml tree I expect. The emml is included below: [Read More...]
Making a simple mashup with wires

I'm trying to use wires to extract "Title" from CNN top stories RSS feed (located http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss) and create a new RSS feed with just the title. Here's what im doing: I get the rss feed, use the extract action to get to the title in the rss feed, and here's where i'm having problems, extact creates a long string which cannot be parsed into an RSS feed. Is there another action that I should be using to do this? Is this possible to do in wires?
Grab Input from another service
Posted 02/05/2010 - 14:02 by hyeung
I have 2 web service operations.
1. Get product list
2. Get product availability by ID
I want to create the output with the Product name and ID from 1 and the stock status from 2
Since operation 2 requires a product ID as an input parameter to retrieve data, Join or Merge may not work in this case. I think I need to first get the product list and then feed each of the product ID to 2 to get the results.
How can I generate the results in Wires?
Please advise.
Thanks
