Hi Jason,

DAfOS looks similar to Code Runner. Is there any difference between these two?

Hi Sournya. As Guilherme mentioned in his first post, you can only get the addresses for friends who have the application installed. For friends who don't have your application installed, the addresses object will be null, which explains the error you're receiving.

Guilherme showed you how to filter the list of friends to request only those who have the app. Just add this line before sending the request:

params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.FILTER] = opensocial.DataRequest.FilterType.HAS_APP;

I tested this with the Developer Application for OpenSocial (DAfOS) and was able to get the addresses of my friends who also had DAfOS installed. (By the way, if you haven't heard of it, DAfOS is an invaluable development tool which you can use to quickly test JavaScript snippets. I've included the URL below).

Hi Soumya,

I tried your code and it's correct. But opensocial don't retrieve address from your friends list. I can't find any reference in API documentation about this, will search again later. I'm almost sure you can get address only from viewer.

Hi Frisoni,

Many many thanks for your kind help.

Here is my code. I am not able to get any country name as addresses.length is null. Please help me to get rid of this issue. Thanks in advance......

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Module> <ModulePrefs title="Friends"> <Require feature="opensocial-0.7"/> </ModulePrefs> <Content type="html"> <![CDATA[ <script type="text/javascript"> function init() { var params = {}; params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.MAX] = 100;

params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.PROFILE_DETAILS] = [opensocial.Person.Field.ADDRESSES]; var req = opensocial.newDataRequest();

req.add(req.newFetchPeopleRequest(opensocial.DataRequest.Group.VIEWER_FRIENDS, params), 'viewerFriends'); req.send(onLoadFriends); } function onLoadFriends(data){ var viewerFriends = data.get('viewerFriends').getData(); viewerFriends.each(function(person) { var addresses = person.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.ADDRESSES); //alert(addresses.length); var country = addresses.getField('country'); alert(country); }); } gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(init); </script> ]]> </Content> </Module> On Jul 24, 7:25 pm, "Guilherme Frisoni" <fris...@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Soumya,

You need to mahe opensocial requests to get this infos, but I think you won't be able to get friends email, and friends address you will get only from those friends that have your application installed. Maybe Jason can confirm this information for you.

The code to retrieve country will be like this:

var viewer_friends; var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); var opt_params = { }; opt_params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.PROFILE_DETAILS] = [opensocial.Person.Field.ADDRESSES]; opt_params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.FILTER] = opensocial.DataRequest.FilterType.HAS_APP;

req.add(req.newFetchPeopleRequest(opensocial.DataRequest.Group.VIEWER_FRIENDS,

opt_params), "viewer_friends"); req.send(function get_callback(response) { viewer_friends = response.get("viewer_friends").getData(); viewer_friends.each(function(person) { var addresses = person.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.ADDRESSES); var country = addresses[0].getField('country'); // addresses return an array, with [0] you get first address (can be many) } ); } );

Hope this can help you, Frisoni
