What’s that I hear? A Bookie sprint is going to take place. We’ve got a clear mission, to get a Firefox extension going for Bookie. Since all of the rework has been going into the JS driving Bookie, the hope is that we can get a Firefox extension to do everything the Chrome one can [...]
Well that took a while. Back in September I opened a branch of Bookie to try to do some cool Backbone driven UI stuff. I decided that maintaining a separate mobile UI was going to kill me. So I needed something I could tweak to make mobile friendly without dual sites. Between a JS drive [...]
Updates this week Slow week. The changes to the fulltext search involved a small bug in updating the tag_str property of the bookmark. I got this fixed and added a migration to rebuilt the tag_str for all bookmarks in the system. The big sign of this was that the edit ui wasn’t showing the tags [...]
Updates this week Sorry, I’m late on the weekly report. The holiday weekend threw me off. However, I’ve got good stuff for you. I completed the port of the fulltext search from being database specific to being Whoosh which is pure Python. This should be cool because it reduces code complexity trying to change things [...]
Updates this week With 0.3 out and gone, it’s time to move forward on 0.4 tickets. I started out with the big one, edit/add form ui for bookmarks on the page. This now works and when you’re browsing urls from your page (/{username}/recent) you’ll see a new “E” icon next to the “R” one. You’ll [...]
Updates this week: 0.3 out the door We had to do some hacking of dying limbs to get there, but 0.3 is out the door. This was the biggest release cycle since things started up. However, the features of an API and multi user auth were worth it. There were a ton of small tweaks [...]
Updates this week Finally, the new and fancy Bookie API is reworked and better than ever. The live running site is updated to use the new api and there’s a new chrome extension that’s update for it as well. Make sure you get the latest dev version of the Chrome extension. With the api updated, [...]
See, I can do these things once a week, I promise! Updates this week Progress this week is all in the api branch. It’s taken some time to figure out just what things are going to look like, and I started with the docs. Lots and lots of docs updates for the api. You can [...]
Phew, with PyOhio out of the way and my tutorial done, I can get back to Bookie. Sorry that I missed the last couple of weekly status reports. Honestly, there wasn’t a ton, but there was some work going on. So first, let’s go over what’s been going on. Mobile View I put in a [...]
Phew, another PyOhio has come and gone. This year was a great event. I can’t say enough good things about the group that puts it together. It’s really nice to have something somewhat local to head to every year. Talks: Data-Transfer Objects Are a Disease. Meet the cure. The first I went to on a [...]
