Using a clean maven web-app.

Creating a new maven web-app:
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=org.apache -DartifactId=shindig-app -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
Configuring jetty:run plugin:
<plugin>
	<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
	<artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
	<configuration>
		<tempDirectory>${basedir}/target/work</tempDirectory>
		<webApp>${basedir}/target/${finalName}.war</webApp>                    
		<contextPath>/</contextPath>
	</configuration>
</plugin>
Adding shindig as dependence:
<dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.shindig</groupId>
        <artifactId>shindig-features</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.0</version>

Configuring web.xml:

</web-app>
Trying:
mvn clean package jetty:run

Now you can navigate to http://localhost:8080/gadgets/ifr?url=http://www.labpixies.com/campaigns/todo/todo.xml&view=home

After this point you have a minimal requirement to use gadget renderer inside your web-app, have fun.

    With v2.5.0-beta4 the guice configuration from above results in "Guice creation errors", "No implementation for org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth2.OAuth2Request" and others.
    You have to add some more guice modules to make it work:

    <context-param>
  <param-name>guice-modules</param-name>
  <param-value>
    org.apache.shindig.common.PropertiesModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.DefaultGuiceModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth.OAuthModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth2.OAuth2Module:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth2.OAuth2MessageModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth2.handler.OAuth2HandlerModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth2.persistence.sample.OAuth2PersistenceModule:
    org.apache.shindig.gadgets.admin.GadgetAdminModule
  </param-value>
</context-param>
