List of Events #5

Closed jcbwlkr closed 11 years ago

jcbwlkr commented 11 years ago

On the main screen we want to show a parsed list of google plus events.

I have been looking at this a little. The presentation of events varies depending on if you're logged in or not:

https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/109960336067004386127/events

will display differently if you're not a member--non members don't actually see the events and get redirected to the group root.

When I browse public activities via https://developers.google.com/+/api/latest/activities/list I don't see the events at all (activities list via API is always limited to public).

I infer from this that the events themselves are not actually public for Upfront G+.

Can we make Events public? Whether we ended up parsing or using the G+ API, working with public events would be easier.

Events tied to communities on G+ can't be public unfortunately. I actually ended up having to use the Meetup API to achieve this. It's been done in db372c8468.

Still needing to create and style individual event pages, and also figure out a way to handle images. Currently they default to our hackathon photo (cause it's awesome).

I'm closing this issue since a new, more relevant issue is posted ( #12 ).

Currently this was solved by pulling events from Meetup.com. We are canceling that membership soon, the new issue is going to address that.
