opensocial.Activity
Representation of an activity. Activities are rendered with a title and an optional activity body. You may set the title and body directly as strings when calling opensocial.newActivity. However, it is usually beneficial to create activities using Message Templates for the title and body. Users will have many activities in their activity streams, and containers will not show every activity that is visible to a user. To help display large numbers of activities, containers will summarize a list of activities from a given source to a single entry. You can provide Activity Summaries to customize the text shown when multiple activities are summarized. If no customization is provided, a container may ignore your activities altogether or provide default text such as "Bob changed his status message + 20 other events like this."
Activity Summaries will always summarize around a specific key in a key/value pair. This is so that the summary can say something concrete (this is clearer in the example below). Other variables will have synthetic "Count" variables created with the total number of items summarized. Message ID of the summary is the message ID of the main template + ":" + the data key
Example summaries:
<messagebundle>
<msg name="LISTEN_TO_THIS_SONG:Artist">
${Subject.Count} of your friends have suggested listening to songs by ${Artist}!
</msg>
<msg name="LISTEN_TO_THIS_SONG:Song">
${Subject.Count} of your friends have suggested listening to ${Song}!
</msg>
<msg name="LISTEN_TO_THIS_SONG:Subject">
${Subject.DisplayName} has recommended ${Song.Count} songs to you.
</msg>
</messagebundle>
