Re: [Radiant] Re: File-based Snippets/Layouts with Support for Radiant Tags?
It just so happens that I was playing around with getting the file_system extension to work with SNS when I came across a nasty conflict. It seems that SNS uses the attribute "filename" instead of name. Because the file_system extension uses this as well, it leads to all sorts of nasty issues. If you change the attribute to 'name' (or anything else for that matter), then everything works nicely. But I can't figure out how to reset the filename attribute in the class extension and keep the whole thing working. Maybe Chris will be kind enough to change the filename attribute in sns or someone else has an idea. It would be great to get these two plugins working together!

Re: [Radiant] Re: File-based Snippets/Layouts with Support for Radiant Tags?
I'd call the support for Pages shaky at best, and I'd still recommend manipulating those in the regular interface. Agreed. The Page model is far more complex than Snippets and Layouts, because it has_many PageParts, and acts_as_tree. I'm road testing the extension myself at the moment, and have noted a several bugs. I've already fixed a few of them, but others keep cropping up. I hope to announce progress in a separate thread soon. Thanks, Drew, for offering to maintain this extension! It's a pleasure. I really needed it to help me refactor a large site which has been getting out of hand. With the file_system extension, my workflow has become so much more manageable. It is a huge relief!

I would appreciate feedback on any problems you encounter. Drew Does this jive with the Styles N' Scripts extension? If so, I think you've solved a really large problem for me. Not yet. That was the first question to be asked when I announced this extension: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/152887#709163 so I can probably say it tops the list of desired features. Sean answered the Q in the same thread. Sean designed the extension for the Redken site, which included a couple of additional models. I have basically taken Sean's extension and stripped out all of the Redken specific functionality. If you look at the extension as it was when I first checked it in to github: http://github.com/nelstrom/radiant-file-system-extension/commit/cf20284c13f3a43d00408086e628c2c13337380c you can get an idea for what Sean means when he says "you can just create an appropriately named module". In particular, I draw your attention to the files: /lib/file_system/model/part_type_extensions.rb /lib/file_system/model/template_extensions.rb These files describe the save and load functionality for PartType and Template models. I have discarded them, because the corresponding models were custom built for Redken. On the other hand, I have maintained the page_extensions.rb file, because the Page model is part of Radiant core. I think it would be quite straightforward to add the functionality in a similar fashion for 'text-assets' such as stylesheets and javascript files. If I understand Sean's design correctly, I think his intention was that extension authors could make their custom models play with the FileSystem extension by adding modules such as (using SnS as an example): /lib/file_system/model/stylesheet_extensions.rb /lib/file_system/model/javascript_extensions.rb These modules would be added to the SnS extension itself, rather than in the FileSystem extension.

(It might be necessary to specify the load order of file_system extension before the others) I'm offering these pointers to help anyone get started on this who wants it. I have my plate full just now (and a vacation as of next week) so I won't be able to have a go at this myself for at least a month.
