Working in the Mashup Editor
Since EMML is an XML language, developers can use any XML-aware editor to write mashups and macros. The Mashup Editor in MashZone NextGen Hub allows you to easily work with EMML and MashZone NextGen mashables, mashups and macros to create, edit, test and publish mashup scripts and macros.
You can use the Mashup Editor to:
Create mashups or macros using
EMML.
You can also automatically generate the EMML statements needed to invoke MashZone NextGen mashable information sources, mashups and macros using Mashup Editor menus.
Note: Mashup Editor saves mashups and macros directly to the MashZone NextGen Repository. This makes mashups and macros instantly available, but can complicate common development practices such as using source control software.
Easily edit a mashup you have started in
Wires and extend the mashup with
EMML. View and copy the
EMML code in
Wires and paste it into the
Mashup Editor. Then edit, as needed.
Note: If you update the EMML code of mashups created in Wires, they can no longer be edited in Wires.
Run mashup scripts or macros to see their results or errors.
You can also review performance statistics for mashup scripts or macros to help identify potential performance problems.
View, test and copy the mashup samples provided in
MashZone NextGen.
