Proof Of Concept - CSFV Chat Web Widget

Project Overview

This project, the CSFV Community Gaming website project will provide the web site infrastructure and integration of the games. This will be a web site that is available on the Internet, and also will be delivered in a form where the server and the games can be installed and used behind a firewall.

Project Requirements

The goal of this challenge is to build a web widget of the CSFV chat frontend that can be embeded in the csfv main site and minisites.

You will address the following in this challenge :

• Implement the web widget in csfv_chat_frontend_app.
• Use csfv_frontend_module and csfv_minisite_frontend_module#minisite2 to host the chat web widget.
  • You will need to cleanup these two frontend application, remove existing chat static files, code and dependencies so it won't affect rendering the web widget.
  • Also you will no more need to run app-chat.js in csfv_frontend_module.
• Single Sign On must work between the frontend application and the csfv chat frontend application. Meaning that you cannot load the chat web widget unless there is a valid session.
• Take the following into consideration :
  • ensure the widget’s code doesn’t accidentally mess up with the rest of the page.
  • dynamically load external CSS and JavaScript files.
  • bypass browsers’ single-origin policy using JSONP.
