Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Jivelite needs a version bump
@ralphy Thanks for updating this! looks good. Deleted the directory /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive Rebooted Ran the tweaks update after another reboot, plugins that should be showing as "available to be installed" are still there. Except for customclock, which was always listed as installable but needs to be installed manually. bengaldave's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4605 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117025 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Jivelite needs a version bump
The jivelite extension has been upgraded for picoreplayer 8.x, it now reports 8.0.0 as the version to LMS. To update, navigate to the Tweaks page in the pcp webadmin and click the Update button in the Jivelite Setup section. If you've installed the work around from post '#2' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?117025-Jivelite-needs-a-version-bump=1064639=1#post1064639) you should delete the file /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/JiveMain.lua and backup the configuration to remove it before installed the new build. Using the work around jivelite still reports the version as 0.1.0 in /var/log/jivelite.log Code: cat /var/log/jivelite.log Using /dev/fb0 as frame buffer device. Frame rate set to 22 frames per second. Frame buffer color bit depth set to 32. JiveLite 0.1.0 The updated extension reports the modified version and revision. Code: cat /var/log/jivelite.log Using /dev/fb0 as frame buffer device. Frame rate set to 22 frames per second. Frame buffer color bit depth set to 32.

Yes. that's correct. I was talking in general as I build jivelite for many platforms and most of them are still using lua-jit.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Jivelite needs a version bump
Triode hard coded the JIVE_VERSION to 0.1.0 in jivelite during development because he used lua-jit which is not 100% syntax compatible with the lua 5.1 used in the jive based players. Ah, I see. I wonder why he didn't opt for a custom target. That would have given applet developers more flexibility. Is the difference in Lua runtime worth the hassle?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Jivelite needs a version bump
Triode hard coded the JIVE_VERSION to 0.1.0 in jivelite during
development because he used lua-jit which is not 100% syntax compatible
with the lua 5.1 used in the jive based players.
Most of the 3rd party applets I've tried don't work with a lua-jit based
jivelite.
It's the main reason I changed jivelite for picoreplayer to use the same
lua 5.1 version as the squeezeplay players.
For picoreplayer I will change the version with an update to the
extension, but that's going take a bit as I don't have my pcp build
environments online.
In the meantime, here's how to temporarily override the version in pcp.
# create jive folder and copy JiveMain.lua
sudo mkdir -p /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive
sudo cp -p /opt/jivelite/share/jive/jive/JiveMain.lua
/home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/
# Using vi add the line *_G["jive"].JIVE_VERSION = "8.0.0"* above the
comment line before local io as shown in the patch below.
# Don't include the leading + sign(s).
sudo vi /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/JiveMain.lua
Code:
--- /opt/jivelite/share/jive/jive/JiveMain.lua
+++ /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/JiveMain.lua
@@ -18,6 +18,8 @@
=cut
--]]
+_G["jive"].JIVE_VERSION = "8.0.0"
+
-
local io= require("io")
-
Quit jivelite from the menu and when it restarts version 8.0.0 will be
reported from the applet installer.
Code:
[22-11-07 07:24:24.1760] Slim::Plugin::Extensions::Plugin::_parseXML (501)
searching http://ralph.irving.sdf.org/extensions/sigen.xml for type: *applet
target: jivelite version: 8.0.0*
After you've confirmed the change, don't forget to backup the pcp
configuration *pcp bu* or you'll loose it at the next reboot.
NB: /var/log/jivelite.log will still report JiveLite 0.1.0 as the
version.
