1197772 - [TV 2.5] Implement a client-side page for TV remote control prototyping

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::TV, defect, P1)

Description

[Luke Chang [:lchang] (inactive)]

We need to implement some remote controlling functions such as a touch panel and a virtual keyboard on this client-side page. This page will be exposed by the http server.

Also, we need to define the protocol between server and client in this bug.

The front-end pages are almost done. Please refer to the repository in comment 1.

Following features have been implemented:

- Keyboard events
- Mouse/touch events
- Input message

Next, I will work on tasks below:

- Document the protocols between server and client
- Dispatch input messages via mozInputMethod API in server side  
- Draw mock mouse cursor in system app (since Gecko doesn't support it now)

For the last two tasks, I will file another two bugs for easily tracking.
