[yast-devel] YaST i18n FAQ
by Katarina Machalkova 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi, YaST hackers, having fixed many i18n-related bugs already, I've always been lacking a single place where all the knowledge needed by YaST developer how to make YaST i18n-friendly would be summarized. I.e. all these useful pieces of information on how to make strings translatable, which tools to use to test i18n fixes, how to handle special cases and alike. So I wrote one up: http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Development/i18n_FAQ Enjoy, and if you lack some important piece of information I might have missed out, just complete the page, it's a wiki after all :) frozenB. -- \\\\\ Katarina Machalkova \\\\\\\__o YaST developer __\\\\\\\'/_ & hedgehog painter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

by Jozef Uhliarik 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Hi, there was a request for some documentation about using python in YaST. It is possible to use ui-bindings for creating UI. Short example you can find here: http://mzugec.blogspot.com How to use python-bindings: http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/python-bindings How to use python-bindings with YaST UI: http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/python-bindings-UI http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/python-bindings-HW Best regards Jozef -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] new built-in swap for list
by Josef Reidinger 16 Apr '09

16 Apr '09

Hi hackers, just quick note. I add new built-in list::swap for list. It swap two elements and list and I think it is enough general to take it from bootloader sand and share it. More info in documentation. example: list::swap ([0,1,2,3],0,2) -> [2,1,0,3] JR -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] svn:mergeinfo blocking svn merge --reintegrate
by Martin Vidner 09 Apr '09

09 Apr '09

Hi hackers, [short summary is at the bottom] Lada and I are merging the DBus feature branch now and got this puzzling error message from svn merge --reintegrate: svn: Cannot reintegrate from 'http:...' yet: Some revisions have been merged under it that have not been merged into the reintegration target; merge them first, then retry. It is because the property is supposed to be set only on the branch root (http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/branches/tmp/lslezak/core) but it was present also on various files within the tree, with 6 different values, so svn thought that we have a sophisticated merging set up and required manual intervention. It turns out that all of the svn:mergeinfo in the subtree were unnecessary. Svn just creates them whenever you rename a file. The reasons are so obscure that even this article which helped us understand the problem does not mention them :-(( http://blogs.open.collab.net/svn/2008/07/subversion-merg.html Short summary ============= If you do svn mv OLD NEW Then also do svn propdel svn:mergeinfo NEW # svn pd ... -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] New CWM modul for unified table manipulation
by Josef Reidinger 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

Hi, I add to CWM module CWMTable. This unify using table renderer of entries and its standard manipulation operations. At first Why you should start using it? Because now each yast module which uses table have different behavior and it is confusing to users. Also adding new features for all tables is not easy. E.g. I find confusing why in yast2-bootloader after double-click on cell it start edit dialog and in yast2-sudo it doesn't. Also handle up/down buttons is very incosistent (sometimes it is auto disabled, sometimes not). So what features provide this little module? - optional add/delete buttons - optional edit button - optional up/down button - optional additional button - each button have separated handle function except up/down which have one - up/down is automatic enabled/disabled on first/last cell (this doesn't work as good as expect and need little debugging) - up/down handle functions gets also index and is ensured that is called only if possible move item up/down (this prevents bugs) - double click on cell call edit handler (if enabled) - wrapper for whole table enable/disable (with all buttons) - better readable code - same ncurses shortcut for Add,Edit,Delete F3-F5 disadvantage - can place only one unified table in dialog because it has hard-coded id TODO: - context menu also for additional button - allows another widget instead of additional widget - document it Example usage is attached. I welcome any comments. Josef Reidinger { import "CWM"; import "CWMTable"; import "Popup"; import "Wizard"; list<string> items = []; integer counter =0; void redraw_table(list<string> values){ list<term> table_items = maplist(string s, values, { return `item(`id(s),s); }); UI::ChangeWidget(`id(`_tw_table),`Items, table_items); } symbol add_handle(string key, map event){ counter = counter +1; items = add(items,sformat("item %1",counter)); redraw_table(items); return nil; } symbol edit_handle(string key, map event){ Popup::Warning("edit"); return nil; } symbol delete_handle(string key, map event){ Popup::Warning("delete"); return nil; } symbol updown_handle(string key, map event, boolean up, integer index){ integer second = up ? (index-1):(index+1); y2milestone("updown with up %1 and index %2 and second %3",up,index,second); string value = items[second]:""; items[second] = items[index]:""; items[index] = value; redraw_table(items); return nil; } symbol custom_handle(string key, map event){ Popup::Warning("Custom button"); return nil; } map<string,any> table = CWMTable::CreateTableDescr( $[ "add_delete_buttons" : true, "edit_button" : true, "up_down_buttons" : true, "custom_button" : true, "custom_button_name" : "Additional button", "custom_handle" : custom_handle, "header" : `header("id"), "edit":edit_handle, "delete":delete_handle, "add" : add_handle, "updown" : updown_handle, ], $[ "help" : "", ] ); Wizard::CreateDialog(); symbol ret = CWM::ShowAndRun($[ "widget_names" : ["table"], "widget_descr" : $[ "table" : table], "contents" : `VBox("table"), "caption" : "test" ]); }

[yast-devel] New YaST-Web version released 1.0.1
by Stefan Schubert 01 Apr '09

01 Apr '09

Hi, I have released a new version of Web-YaST with following changes. - Added translation support on the client side. - Added ruby-gettext - Split off ruby-rpam and ruby-polkit in single packages. - Switch off IPV6 in lighthttpd cause it produced some errors. (esp. on 64bit) - Added package dependencies concerning rails. The last few weeks has shown that RAILS versions are not really compatible. So many problems has been occured due different RAILS versions on the systems where YaST-Web has been installed. Please use RAILS 2.1 - Cleanup code. The newest packages can be found here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home:schubi2 Or https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=YaST:Web I have tested on 32 and 64bit machine. So both architectures should work.
