[yast-devel] [Announcement] YaST-DOC in external SVN
by Lukas Ocilka 21 Nov '07

21 Nov '07

Hi, I've moved our additional YaST documentation to the external SVN at opensuse.org. See: http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/trunk/doc/ It contains several scripts and XML files for generating XML documentation from sources, for building HTML from those XML files, etc. Some other add-on are there as well, such as tutorials. Several scripts still need to be adapted their new environment (external SVN). All from that place is used to generate the documentation stored at http://forgeftp.novell.com/yast/doc/ Bye Lukas -- Lukas Ocilka, YaST Developer (xn--luk-gla45d) ----------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o., Lihovarska 1060/12, Praha 9, Czech Republic

[yast-devel] ITO project proposal #1: Web user interface
by Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett 21 Nov '07

21 Nov '07

ITO time proposal YaST Web UI, Approach: Wt Why: - there is already a prototype from Stano - nobody has come wth a better approach? - It is C++ - It is similar to Qt - It offers AJAX - widget-centric (avoid the web indiscipline and mess) - integration with (existing) C++ libraries - Provides plain widgets, which work regardless of JavaScript availability (but benefit from JavaScript availability), and Wt::Ext widgets (based on http://extjs.com) - built in web server - no need to rewrite yast modules, only to "rework" them http://www.webtoolkit.eu/ (package available on home:dmacvicar in OBS) Current problems: - semantic: when is yast running? daemon? listening? only one session? how many users? - threading problems - completness (implement widgets) Goal: - solve the semantic issues - to be able to login and use very basic functionality of any module Time: proposal 4 days (too much too less?) When to start? Proposal Nov 12 Who takes care of the pizza? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] Mod-ui: HVStretch widget dropped
by Katarina Machalkova 20 Nov '07

20 Nov '07

Hola brave yast hackers! I'd like to use this way to announce that with mod-ui transition, HVStretch widget has been dropped and it should no longer be used. Should you still need it in your module, consider using e.g. `Empty, or some combination of `HStretch and `VStretch. These modules seem to be affected: ldap-client certify so please fix them accordingly, and if writing new code, please do not use HVStretch any more, to prevent crashes and other ugly things with new mod-ui. The documentation on UI widgets should be updated as well Thanks B. -- \\\\\ Katarina Machalkova \\\\\\\__o YaST developer __\\\\\\\'/_ & hedgehog painter

[yast-devel] YaST2 and Disk order
by Günther J. Niederwimmer 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hello, Know you that YaST2 change the Order of disk's anytime ? The Problem that I found, is with three disks and 17 Partitions on my Test System ? YaST2 have on install time, a different order for the Disks then in installed time ? One Problem YaST2 find on install time the swap partition on disk /dev/sdcX, after installing the swap partition is on /dev/sdbX, also when I config "/home" on /dev/sdcX later it is on /dev/sdbX :(. The grub menu.lst is also broken after installation :( A other Problem is, why find YaST2 a different Order of disk's (?), as ubuntu or fedora ? When i make a test installation with "ubuntu" or "fedora", i have the same disk order in both installation ? With SUSE I have a different disk order, and nothing is booting "normal" :( . -- mit freundlichen Grüßen / best Regards Günther J.

[yast-devel] Commits available on irc
by Duncan Mac-Vicar P. 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

If you hang out in freenode, the channel #zypp has real time forwarding of commits to the subversion repository. For #yast, the commits go to #yast-commits as they have more traffic than ZYpp repo. The YaST bot includes the ZYpp commits too. Any setting can be changed, so lets see how it works this way! Cheers!

[yast-devel] SCR Agent: any-XML Parser
by Lukas Ocilka 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Hi, I'd like to announce moving the *anyxml* SCR agent to *yast2.rpm*. This has been done because not only yast2-packager but also yast2-users found it suitable for parsing generic XML (see bugzilla #332187). What is this XML parser good for? It uses Perl module XML::Bare so it can parse every valid XML content, not only YaST-specific formats. Where can I find it? In yast2-2.16.11.rpm and later. How can I use it? See http://forgeftp.novell.com/yast/doc/SL10.3/scr/2.anyxml.html Is that new feature? Do we use it anywhere else? No, anyxml is in openSUSE since 10.3. We use it for Online Repositories. Example: --- anyxml.ycp --- { any xml = SCR::Read (.anyxml, "any.xml"); y2milestone ("XML: %1", xml); } --- anyxml.ycp --- --- any.xml --- <?xml version="1.0"?> <book> <author> <firstname>John</firstname> <surname>Fish</surname> </author> <copyright>2007</copyright> <content> <chapter> <title>Learn YCP in 20 Minutes</title> <para>hahaha</para> </chapter> </content> </book> --- any.xml --- Run: `/sbin/yast2 ./anyxml.ycp` and see the result in y2log... --- result in y2log --- test/anyxml.ycp:4 XML: $[ "book":$[ "author":$[ "firstname":$[ "pos":0, "value":"John" ], "pos":0, "surname":$[ "pos":1, "value":"Fish" ], "value":"\n\t" ], "content":$[ "chapter":$[ "para":$[ "pos":1, "value":"hahaha" ], "pos":0, "title":$[ "pos":0, "value":"Learn YCP in 20 Minutes" ], "value":"\n\t " ], "pos":2, "value":"\n\t" ], "copyright":$[ "pos":1, "value":2007 ], "pos":0, "value":"\n " ], "value":"" ] --- result in y2log --- author_firstname = foo["book","author","firstname","value"]:"Unknown"; Have a nice day Lukas -- Lukas Ocilka, YaST Developer (xn--luk-gla45d) ----------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o., Lihovarska 1060/12, Praha 9, Czech Republic

[yast-devel] y2base calling convention changed
by Stefan Hundhammer 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

I just learned the hard way after half a day of debugging that the current directory is no longer searched when executing YCP scripts. y2base HelloWorld.ycp qt no longer works. Instead, use y2base ./HelloWorld.ycp qt Regrettably, the error message is not informative.
