[Radiant] Installing 0.6.0rc1
I have tried using Gem install radiant-0.6.0rc1 and Gem install radiant-0.6.0rc1.gem, but get the same error with both. I have had a look at the weblog, which is where I downloaded the gem from, but just can't persuade it to install, I just get the (Gem::GemNotFoundException) I have also tried to install it strait from the web by using gem install --source http://johnwlong.com/downloads radiant-0.6.0rc1.gem (with and without the .gem at the end) but get a HTTP 404 and gem remote source exception Thanks Sharon -- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 12:52:48 - From: Sharon Clift [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Radiant] Installing 0.6.0rc1 To: radiant@lists.radiantcms.org Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I am new to Ruby/Rails RubyGem and am trying to install a copy of radiant 0.6.0rc1 for testing.

[Radiant] new user questions
Hi, I'm planning to use radiant to power a website, but before taking the plunge I have some questions. I installed the 0.6 release candidate. Here are questions I couldn't answer by looking at the docs or the mailing list archive: - an applicaiton created with the radiant command doesn't apparently contain the radiant code. Is there a way to freeze it to the gems used like for rails applications? (I saw in environment.rb that the gem used is referenced) I didn't see it in the rake tasks available. - a related question: Will there be attention paid to upgrade procedures to future versions? I'd like to follow the latest release, but won't be able to afford long downtimes. - Having all templates and layouts in the database is not the most user friendly to edit. Only for my tests I have lost time because the 'Save and continue editing' looses the position of my cursor when the page reload. Is there a way to store layouts in files? An ajax way of saving the changes when editing in the browser would be a workaround. I would still prefer templates in files (that way, if you want to change the design, you can do it in development on all layouts to be changed, and have it all transfered at once, to the production server. In this case I find it much easier to sync files and directories than DBs) - If I want to let people register on the site, what's the best way to do it? Add a controller in the radiant installation? Run an additional rails app to just handle this? Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [Radiant] Simple blog too complex: what does this code do?
So what do I do to make it work with a multi-blog site? I need
something that matches /blog//MM/DD, /blog//MM/DD, /car//
MM/DD, and I don't really want to have to change it or add to it

Re: [Radiant] Simple blog too complex: what does this code do?
Change the first part of the if_url to look like so:
r:if_url matches=^/(blog|car|whatever)/\d{4}/\d{2}/\d{2}/.+r:unless_url
matches=-archives/$p class=infoPosted by r:author / on
r:date //p/r:unless_url/r:if_url
You can keep chaining on other categories with the | character.

(I saw in environment.rb that the gem used is referenced) I didn't see it in the rake tasks available. With 0.6rc1 the easiest way to do this is to extract the gem into the vendor/radiant directory, or to check radiant out using subversion into your vendor/radiant directory. (I like to use SVN externals to simplify this.) There is now a series rake tasks in the repository to make this a little easier: $ rake radiant:freeze:gems ~ or ~ $ rake radiant:freeze:edge BRANCH=mental - a related question: Will there be attention paid to upgrade procedures to future versions? I'd like to follow the latest release, but won't be able to afford long downtimes. If you are using instance mode the upgrade procedure looks like this: $ gem update radiant Now edit config/environment.rb so that RADIANT_GEM_VERSION is set to the new version. Continue with: $ cd /path/to/radiant/install $ rake radiant:update The radiant:update rake tasks are new in the repository as of last night. - Having all templates and layouts in the database is not the most user friendly to edit.

If you are looking for an easier way to edit layouts, I'd suggest the Edit in Textmate command (if you are a Textmate user or something similar if you use another editor). I'd like to eventually add better export and import functionality to Radiant. This would certainly simplify what you are talking about. - If I want to let people register on the site, what's the best way to do it? Add a controller in the radiant installation?

Thanks! I know how to write regular expressions. I was wondering if
there was a way to make this more automatic. The DRY-principles
should apply to layouts as well, no? Can anyone think of a way to
reduce the number of places I need to change when I add a new project
blog. Right now I do this:
Create a new child of the root, say food.
Copy the content from a previous blog, say cars.
Change some stuff in the page content.
Create an RSS-feed.
Change the Normal layout.
I'd like to find a smarter and less redundant way to do this.

[Radiant] Help on Extension: EmbedPage
Im building an extension to embed another RoR app in Radiant.

Re: [Radiant] Help on Extension: EmbedPage
Colin, You might be better off with an IFRAME or something similar, otherwise you will have to create a bunch of workarounds in your Rails application to deal with a different HTTP_REFERER. The other option, of course, is to fuse Radiant with your application, i.e. making your application into an extension, but that may not be appropriate.

[Radiant] Radiant 0.6 RC2 and extensions (Was: Radiant 0.6 RC2)
Instance mode is the mode where the whole Radiant code is copied into your project? If I understand correctly, instance mode is required to develop extensions (which I intend to to). Or are there other means? I am sorry, its all a bit vague to me. Perhaps I have not yet seen the right documentation. Or perhaps there are just too many options :) What would be the appropriate way to operate when you want to develop an extension which will be available for others, potentially through svn, but definitely through some other way (gem?)? (Perhaps important: I still did not have time to finish my svn setup.) I wrote a camping application to manage a virtual e-mail domain with postfix (redirects only). I would like to convert it to a Radiant extension. Regards, Erik. John W. Long wrote: John W.
