[opensuse-project] [gsoc] week 26 - MATE caja extension project - alexandervdm
by Alexander van der Meij 27 Jun '14

27 Jun '14

Hi, For my GSoC project, I will be working on caja, the file manager for the MATE desktop. My primary goal is to extend its extensions functionality to allow runtime (de-)activation of individual plugins, and to create an extension management system to allow more complex extensions. This last week, I finished my implementation for an extension manager in Caja. Both the back-end and user interface are complete. I also began writing the code required to have extensions load/unload at runtime. For the upcoming week, I have the following activities planned (in order): - Complete the load-at-runtime code. - Improve the extension manager - Look into creating an API for extensions to expose their name/description/config-abilities. - Look into merging libcaja-private with the nemo equivalent? - Documentation! With kind regards, Alexander van der Meij alexandervdm @ freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] GSoC Midterm evaluations - Organization needs?
by zsoltpeterbasak 24 Jun '14

24 Jun '14

Hello everyone! Just a short question to the openSUSE GSoC team, and the other fellow student. (In the name of ... every other student, who does not know the answer.) There is a short note / paragraph in the official FAQ: _Quote_: "Many organizations choose to speak to students about their midterm and final evaluation responses directly. We would recommend you speak to the mentoring organization directly about how they administer their evaluations." What is the openSUSE team / project stance on this?

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Snapper Desktop Integration Weekly Report
by Oguz Kayral 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

Hi Last week I worked on adding the remaining snapshot actions to manta and testing. This I will do some refactoring and cover some edge cases, then release the first version of manta. We will also discuss with my mentor about what kind of changes we will do for the second version of manta. And also about the desktop integration (dolphin etc.) features we will implement during the second half of the project. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Git-Review Progress Update
by Dong Xu 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

Hi All, Sorry for sending this update late. I spent most of the week trying to integrate bucketkit into git-review and modify the current code structure whenever needed. I haven't written new unit tests for it yet because as I went along I've also changed the existing ones. According to the project schedule, I'll probably get to it in the next one or two weeks. Since it's about the mid-term evaluation time, looking at the whole project I feel the progress is quite on track. I hope I'll be able to finish bitbucket integration by the mid of July, and move to support GitLab if possible. Cheers, Xu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] [Cool Live Flash] Weekly report
by zsoltpeterbasak 22 Jun '14

22 Jun '14

Hello everyone! This week was full of breakthroughs, and full of challenges. I have written the scripts that will generate the dialog where you can choose which image you want to boot. I have written the script for the next step, that actually does the work, automagically. We also had continous mail exchange and chats with my mentor. He helped me out with debugging and stuff, like always. Okay I don't nag him 0-24, but each time we talk I learn a lot, and his expertise got me out of the worst debug sessions as well. (The documentation and helpful messages are quite scarce with these tools. Most of them even lack verbose output and logging. - just .....why?) Besides those, I have managed to create the necessary Dracut modules (to get our files included - what we need), in the Dracut image file. So everything is going smooth. Of course, I break through a barrier, another gets in the way. But that makes it all fun. (Yeah, I know, there is a deadline. So I will keep that having fun part short.) Now I'm working on a reliable final step solution that works best (e.g.: when you switch to the system you want to fire up). Again, this requires the very same steps. Write, test, test, write, test, test, write. Rinse and repeat. I already have a load of scripts, just to shave off testing time. Once the mount is done - the current step, next is automation, with booting on a real drive. So in short: real life. And of course, further testing, improvements. There is a lot to do, even if I sum it up in one or two lines, so no worries, I won't die from boredom, that's for sure. :) (But I sure do enjoy the task, so it's a win-win for me.)

[opensuse-project] Re: Weekly Report [OSEM][Week 5] [GSoC]Event Splash Page for Visitors
by Gopesh Tulsyan 21 Jun '14

21 Jun '14

Hello Community, This week I completed the Location component with lodgings and added a banner component to the splash.This banner component is in place of carousel, it contains a background image, conference title, start-end dates and description. I also added the checkboxes for each component in admin dashboard as decided previous week, so that admins/organizer now can enable the component on the splash when they think it's completed.On a different note, we locked down on the carousel to be implemented as gallery in a lightbox.This enabled me to use the carousel code that I have written for taking photos for carousel. Only thing I have to do for gallery is to make the frontend the backend code for taking photos form the admin dashboard is merged. Next week is mid-term evaluation.Next, I will implement some styling onto the splash as decided by James.This won't take much time as I have to implement styling by looking at the themes.However, James and I decided that I will next improvise the email notifications as mentioned in my proposal.The email notifications have to implemented in a way so that the Users attending the Conference are aware about each and every update that the admins make to the conference and these mails will be fired by the admins explicitly. Some snaps of the splash page with test data are attatched.

[opensuse-project] [GSoC-2014][MATE]weekly report - Epub support in Atril
by avishkar-gupta 21 Jun '14

21 Jun '14

Hi, The last few days were spent coding the webview into Atril. I had some concerns about not being able to use the Atril frontend and having to adjust in a lot of frontend code, so I had a chat with my mentor Stefano and we reached to the conclusion that even though we would be compromising on the look and feel of Atril, it was best if I just continued with the original plan wherein the Webkit window will replace the Atril view in the Atril container. There were also some compatibility issues with the new webkit2 API, which heavily depends on GTK3, while Atril and all MATE software for that matter is based primarily off GTK2. So now I'm coding off webkit-1.0 which though depracated is still supported. Currently I'm writing callbacks to control the behaviour of GTK widgets in the reader(and hoping that I don't run into some thread problem!). That's all for this week.I Hope I have good news to deliver next week :) ,after which I can start focusing on all the additional features I plan on adding. As usual to follow the project please see : https://github.com/rootavish/atril.git -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
