Re: [slim] Welcome pack for new Developers

2008-05-24 Thread cparker

Well I got some progress, the 3 lines appear but only for about 1
second.  For some reason it wont pick up my block and duration code to
hold the display.

Any ideas? :s

This is the code that does work;
$client-showBriefly({ line = [$mytopline, $a],,}, {
'duration' = 15, 'block' = 0});

Expanded to use 3 lines, this doesnt work for more than 1 second;

$client-showBriefly({
'line' = [ $mytopline, $a, $mytopline ],
'duration' = 15,
'block' = 0,
'center' = [ $center1, $center2, $center3 ],
'overlay' = [ $overlay1, $overlay2, $overlay3 ],
'fonts' = { 'graphic-320x32' = 'threeline',} 
   }
);

You need to pass 2 hashes - one for the display itself and one for the
optional parameters to showBriefly.  You are doing this in the first
case, but have merged them in the second case.

Something like the following:

$client-showBriefly( {
line = ['line1', 'line2','line3'],
fonts = { graphics-320x32 = 'threeline' }
}, { duration = 15, block = 0 } );

Excellent thanks, for completeness the following worked :)

$client-showBriefly({
'line' = [$mytopline, $a, $b],
'fonts' = {'graphic-320x32' = 'threeline' }
}, { 'duration' = 15, 'block' = 0 } );


Now those pesky icons... ;)

Display api is documented as part of the server under help - technical
information - display api.  This should include all the relavent calls
to display stuff on the player displays.

Re: [slim] Welcome pack for new Developers

2008-05-22 Thread mflint

 Do you have some specific feature in mind that you like to implement
?

That's quite a question. Many people (me included) don't really know
what needs doing, what's on (or not on) SlimDevices' roadmaps, and
whether they have time/resources allocated to tasks.

I was browsing the 'Wine wiki' (http://wiki.winehq.org/) yesterday and
they seem to have quite an open approach to development tasks. In
particular:


- 'To do list' (http://wiki.winehq.org/TodoList)
- 'Fun projects' (http://www.winehq.org/site/fun_projects)
- 'Janitorial tasks' (http://wiki.winehq.org/JanitorialProjects)

I'd like to contribute time and code to making SqueezeCenter/SqueezeOS
better, but it's difficult to know where to start. If there were wiki
pages similar to the Wine ones, it'd be a useful resource for willing
contributors.

Me, I'd love to do a few janitorial tasks as a way of getting a broad
overview of the codebase.

I would like to see more v7 examples on how to display graphics and more
than 2 lines of text.

The tech info is very light on how to do this and just mentions it can
be done but then doesnt really enlighten you how, well in simple speak
anyway :s

I imagine, something like this.

[CODE]
return {
'line' = [ $line1, $line2, $line3 ],
'center' = [ $center1, $center2, $center3 ],
'overlay' = [ $overlay1, $overlay2, $overlay3 ],
'fonts' = {
  'graphic-320x32' = 'threeline',
   }
}

};
[/CODE]

All this dev stuff is probably better off in the developer forum.

Do you have some specific feature in mind that you like to implement ?

There is an architectural overview available focused on the SqueezeOS
part here:
http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezeOSArchitecture

If you are interested in other parts of the software someone could
probably describe it for you, but in that case it would help to know
what feature you are trying to accomplish.

[slim] Welcome pack for new Developers

2008-05-18 Thread wpqs

would it be possible to create a welcome pack document for potential new
developers? I would particularly like to know:

1. Architecture overview
2. Developer tools/ skills you'll need - languages, test tools (xUnit,
FIT, etc), source control
3. How to start making a contribution - important areas of the site/
source control policy/ bug reporting procedures/ documents to read
etc.

Perhaps this sort of information is already available, but it's not
immediately obvious to newcomers like me.

Regards

Will
