Useful for Anyone to Know:
-
I've raved about Nextcloud here enough that I'll bet Mark Wieder's tired 
of it , so I'll try to not let me enthusiasm run away with me - I 
could go on about Nextcloud for way more than anyone wants to read.


It's like a blend of Dropbox, Google Docs, and more than a hundred 
add-on apps for everything from a kanban tool to media streaming to 
videoconferencing - all free and open source:


https://nextcloud.com/

I use one internallt, to sync my LiveCode plugins folder across my 
machines, as well as some client projects.  And I use another externally 
as a client portal where we share files, a kanban board, etc.


If you can set up an Apache Server under Ubuntu on a VPS, adding 
Nextcloud is as easy as a one-line Snap call.


If you're not yet comfortable wrangling servers, there are many 
companies offering hosting listed at the site.


Nextcloud's file repository is a WebDAV server, which makes it a perfect 
compliment to something that showed up in our community just the other day:



Extremely Useful for LiveCode Developers to Know:

A frequent forum contributor, "bangkok", has posted a super-cool demo of 
a library from Matthias Rebbe for WebDAV client functionality:


https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=32377&p=188319#p188099

You can :
-upload a file
-download a file
-create a folder
-delete a folder/file
-list the content of a folder (method PROPFIND)

You could use this on any WebDAV server, Such as, say, Nextcloud. :)

I've tested the script on both Nextcloud servers I manage - works a 
treat.  Thank you bangkok amd Matthias Rebbe!


In your case, Mike, your data could even be a simple tab-delimited file, 
stored and retrieved using WebDAV.


I'm building out most of my back-office tools around Nextcloud's WebDAV 
as a shared data store.

Re: New Apple Developer iOS requirements beginning April 30

2020-03-04 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode
I tried that and managed to avoid iOS for several years. Unfortunately 
clients demanded iPhone compatibility and I couldn't convince them 
otherwise. So here I am, realizing all over again what a pain it is to 
develop on that platform.


The only good thing was that iPhone screen sizes were consistent, but they 
took that away too.

That will definitely get Apple’s attention.  Developers are sick of all the 
stupid

requirements Apple constantly throws at us for our apps.  Any apps we
develop that we put into their store always gets buried in the piles and piles
of apps there.  If you just develop for macOS well at least you can avoid
most of the screen size requirements.

Thanks for the update anyway Henry.

Are you using the code base for the Raspbery Pi?

AFAIK it hasn't been touched since v7.0.4, but unless you need specific 
newer features it shouldn't (fingers crossed) be that hard to compile 
for your ARM device.


But you may not need to compile it.  Have you tried the compiled build 
from the Downloads page?:


https://livecodestatic.com/downloads/livecode/7_0_4/LiveCodeCommunityInstaller-7_0_4-Linux.rpi

It has a few serious problems trying to run it in a GUI, but on a 
faceless server I've had good luck with it both under Raspbian and 
Ubuntu Core.

LivecodeServer for ARM Cortex-A7

2020-03-04 Thread Heriberto Torrado via use-livecode
Dear livecode programmers,

 

I tried several times to cross-compile livecode server community edition from 
the github repository on an Allwinner H3 processor device (sun8iw7p1 ARM 
Cortex-A7) FriendElec Nano pi Plus M1.

 

All times I tried it I got this error: Unknow platform.

 

Many IOT devices runs this processor: OrangePi, Nanopi m1 Plus, CherryPi, etc.

 

I’m currently using Python and PHP for command line scripting and web 
programing purposes on this device, but I would like to use Livecode Server 
instead.

 

As far as I know Livecode Server is written using portable C++, so I suppose it 
must be compatible with multiple platforms.

 

Do you know if someone compiled it successfully and how?


Best regards/ Saludos cordiales/ Cordialement
