Hi all,
Just released version 2.40 of BoltWire with several fixes and features
-- nothing too disruptive. But it does have a nice little surprize in
it. A powerful help system that should be a big step towards easing
the learning curve for developers. To use it, upgrade to 2.40 and set
helpSystem: true in site.config. Then in the address bar of your
browser add something like help=mail or help=markup to any page. The
results should surprize you!
To check it out, try it on BoltWire. It even scans plugins (try
help=cookie). And there's a special built in help=markuptable and
help=initialization. It's quite cool! I also went through and added
at least a line or two of help info on every function in BoltWire,
right in the source code. If anyone would like to help improve the
internal documentation, send some text to me and I'll add it to the
source. Just keep it as short and focused as possible. It will
increase the size of our download a bit (this released upped the zip
from 84 to 95kb) but it's all comments and it is useful. So if we can
be sparing, I'm willing to add some more. Just could use some help.
Other notes from the changelog:
Fixed bug in list function when delimiter set, but no page parameter.
Added a few slight fixes to search.php to avoid error messages when
the zone is not supplied to certain functions.
Added an escape=false option to disable the escaping of templated displays.
Added my own custom %E time fmt to give the same as %e but without the
leading space. (%e doesn't work on my server anyway). Just a hack to
return the current date.
Added a value=page:variable option to the box input field to make it
easier to set default values. Still need closing box tag.
Fixed data action so returns line returns properly when editing
multi-line data variables.
Added a space between terms in the {data} variable, so it won't break
skins quite so easily. Some plugins could be affected...
Changed list function to automatically trim each list item for spaces.
Reworked data action to properly display text area content.
Bullet-proofed a few potential error messages in the search function.
Reworked the nolines code to a simpler solution. Could also be used
for simple html. Perhaps should rename html...
Cheers,
Dan
