Properties dictionary for Events in the Google Wave Python API

Question

The Google Wave documentation contains the Robot Events, but doesn't list what values will be put into the properties dictionary. Is this documented anywhere?

Answer 1

I had the same question and found some hints in the following Google group thread: http://groups.google.com/group/google-wave-api/browse_thread/thread/8d19dbcb6f2147cc

For now, I think the closest you can get to an answer to this question is Jason Salas' response: "the good news is that you can look in the logs that Google App Engine generates for your robot in your dashboard (choose Info from the drop-down menu under your application), and you can manually read the JSON string and get the "properties" content."

I guess we'll just have to wait until the API stabilizes and the documentation is more complete.

Answer 2

They are listed in API Reference documentation, in the waveapi.events module.
