Hey guys, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Decent week productivity wise. Here's a rundown of what I've been |
| 4 |
doing this week: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
- Added keyboard layout support to the build tool (just need to do |
| 7 |
layouts loading in the WebUI now and it's complete) |
| 8 |
- Added support for USE flags, package USE, FEATURES and package |
| 9 |
accept keywords to the WebUI |
| 10 |
- Added a simultaneous builds configuration option (should a user be |
| 11 |
allow to run two builds at once? basic request limiting) |
| 12 |
- Fixed up the kernel configuration so that we actually have a |
| 13 |
framebuffer device at last |
| 14 |
- Fixed up the Fluxbox config and updated the Stage3/Portage downloads |
| 15 |
(X can be launched now, works well) |
| 16 |
- Added an XFCE config since Fluxbox is even more minimal than I |
| 17 |
thought (includes Firefox, again, works very well) |
| 18 |
- Made huge improvements to the PHP code, tidied up, moved to mysqli |
| 19 |
with prepared statements, used filter_input with a custom filter for |
| 20 |
shell arguments |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
So yeah, pretty good week. I'm coming to the end of parts of my |
| 23 |
project that I actually planned in my proposal now, most of what there |
| 24 |
is left to do is polish and make things look better. So here's the |
| 25 |
plan for this week: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
- Add the keyboard layout list support to the WebUI |
| 28 |
- Look into localisation for the unwired language option on the WebUI |
| 29 |
- Tidy up code for WebUI |
| 30 |
- Improve look of WebUI |
| 31 |
- AJAXify status bar on the WebUI |
| 32 |
- Do more testing of the configurations, create more sample ones |
| 33 |
- Figure out some way to do additional setup, things like xinitrc, |
| 34 |
inside the wizard |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
After this week I'll pretty much be taking suggestions for ideas, |
| 37 |
gonna try think of some more. There needs to be an easier way to |
| 38 |
install and setup all of this, so that's one thing to do. Also, I |
| 39 |
figure I could remove the Gearman dependancy fairly easily. It was a |
| 40 |
nice crutch for getting things up and running but I'm not really |
| 41 |
relying on much of it's functionality at this point other than it's |
| 42 |
distributed functionality (which I haven't tested works with my code, |
| 43 |
anyway). Lastly there needs to be some kind of initscript for the |
| 44 |
daemon rather than just dropping it in a screen and leaving it. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Cheers, |
| 47 |
