Making Sidebar Love

Ruby Apps Typo
1

Hey guys,

Quick question.

I have made all the code to develop a Digg.com Sidebar element. Now I
just
want to impliment it. How do I do it? Where are the sidebars located and
what do I need?

Thanks

Levi

Hi Levi,
The sidebar plugins are now located in the vendor/plugins directory.
Now, you just need to read the source, Luke !

Cool stuff…

I hate using svn on top of developing…

I somewhat like svn, although svk is much more interesting / useful when
working with changes branched from someone else’s repository.

I’m working on a little doc that I wrote after re-writing the
bloglines sidebar again. I’ll post again when it’s done. Should be
soon.

I just made a Digg.com sidebar, I just need to write the ruby for it
now.

Let me refrase that:

“I hate working with SVN on a production/development blog”

.mine are some what annoying sometimes. I guess it is really my fault.

I put up some example code, and instructions on how to make a sidebar
for Bloglines, on my blog, at http://blog.folkwolf.net/pages/
sidebar_tutorial

It’s pretty terrible now, but hopefully, with the help of some people
here, it’ll get better.

What? Then I wouldn’t get to rewrite it every time the sidebar api
changes
Seriously, I probably will submit the patch once I get everything
sorted out.
There’s another sidebar I’m working on as well that builds a little
planet in the sidebar.

One reason for putting sidebars and textfilters in the plugins
directory was so that they could be maintained separately from Typo
itself. There’s a handy dandy mechanism for installing plugins via
svn.

Actually, I’m working on this intermittently right now. once I get
the plugin availably through svn, can I just install a plugin via

ruby script/plugin install http://example.com/svn/blah or svn://
example.com/blah ?

Also has anyone tried to alter the database through a rake task in a
sidebar plugin?
