[Lift] Re: translate doc to Russian

[TylerWeir]

I grant permission for the Russian translation.

I'm not sure how "legal" a reply in a thread is, but if it's good
enough, then the translation has my blessing.

I also suppose I can only speak for myself, not Marius or Derek.

[Lift] Vim Helpers for Lift

[TylerWeir]

Antonio Salazar Cardozo put together some helpers for Vim.

http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2962

"Currently provides a few commands:

* :Lmodel, Lsnippet, Lactor, Lcomet -- all take a class name and take
you to
  the appropriate associated file
* :Lview -- takes a class name and takes you to the appropriate view
file
* :Lspec or :Ltest -- when called from a class (e.g., GroupSnip),
takes you to
  the associated test file (GroupSnipTest)
* :Lclass -- the opposite of Lspec, takes you to the class for the
current test "

I'll have to play with it as soon as I can, but it looks handy.

[Lift] Re: Documentation Site

[TylerWeir]

Why not improve the existing wiki on github?

Or fork the book and make improvements that way?

I'm not opposed to additional resources, but why create another place
where docs may or not be out of date?

I think that Lift is still at the point where one location of docs is
better.

My opinion.

Well done all.

[Lift] Re: Proposal : Lift ticketing system

[TylerWeir]

I think it's a great idea.

I'm not sure if this would work, but if it appeared on github, we
could use it as an example app that new Lifters could study.  Like
what we hoped PocketChange would be, but we have more of a need for a
ticket system, than a budget app.

Hi Neil,

Many of your recent questions can be answered by looking at Lift's
source.

Have you cloned the GitHub repository?

Exploring the source will only assist you in further development.

I was going to suggest CakePHP as I've got non-dev friends to use with
with reasonable success.

In volume or in quality? Both?

Given how busy everyone is, I'll put this out there and maybe some
with time/energy will pick it up.

Mike Ash is an excellent Cocoa/ObjC dev and has a series of articles
he posts on Fridays, "Friday Q&A."
http://www.mikeash.com/?page=pyblog/

I see something like this being an enormous benefit to Lift devs.  And
in addition to Q&A, maybe a Recipe day, "Recipe for CRUD" "Recipe for
Comet" "Recipe for X"

I would really like to do this, but I don't have the time to make it
be of any quality and I'd prefer not to put out something that is
merely one step up from junk.

Maybe a thread where people get to guide us to an example app.

Personal Opinion:
To be fair to Lift commit team, there is quite a bit of example code
online for people to check out, but I'm not convinced they are
actually looking at it.  Given the number of questions that come in
that are easily solved with a Google Search, I don't know how pumping
out more and more docs and examples will help, as it seems largely
ignored.

We went through the same issue with Cocos2d-iPhone:
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/1564
The source code people must download to build a game comes with about
100 examples and people still ignore it.

So we're not dealing with a Lift-specific issue I don't think, but we
are dealing with a difficult one.

This is a case of running before walking I think.

Ko, web app development encompasses *many* aspects, and jumping in
with a Functional/OO hybrid language based framework may not be the
best idea if you're looking to hit the ground running.

There are caveats though, the major one is the lack of actors.

[Lift] Re: Breaking changes in CometActor code vs. continuing instabilities in Scala Actors

[TylerWeir]

Given the on again/off again nature of the issue, I'm voting for
adding your change.
We can rely on your code working until the issue is sorted with the
Scala team.

So, +1 to dpp's code.

I believe Jorge did the original implementation.

I'd suggest starting on your own app and post when you hit a stumbling

[Lift] Re: Mapper with id=-1

[TylerWeir]

I wanted to echo Derek's surprise at some of the omissions in the
paper book.

It was a disappointment for us as well.

Thanks for ordering the book.

How do you see Akka integrating with Lift and/or GoatRodeo?

On first impression there seem to be a few overlaps that could fit

Or maybe a bit of code sharing.

[Lift] Re: Scala job site written in Lift + a newcomer's experience

[TylerWeir]

@spencer:

Add a comment to this thread:
http://www.nabble.com/Scala-programmers-in-US--td24331451.html

I registered scala-jobs.com (it appears someone is basically squating
on scalajobs.com) thinking that I would put together a job board as
well.

If you don't mind, I'll point scala-jobs.com to your site.

[Lift] Re: date management

[TylerWeir]

The code Derek included:
// Set the up the RequstVar to initialize a new MyUserClass by default
object userVar extends RequestVar[MyUserClass](MyUserClass.create)

By default creates a MyUserClass instance.
Maybe you want to init the RequestVar as an Empty Box and then
conditionally modify it.

object userVar extends RequestVar[Box[MyUserClass]](Empty)

Then after you save, you can set the RequestVar to Empty again.

Without looking at your code, this is a guess, I could be/probably am
wrong.

[Lift] Re: file upload

[TylerWeir]

Take a look at:

It should cast some light on your issue.

[Lift] Re: Odd Jetty failure during ToDo tutorial

[TylerWeir]

Are you running on OS X by any chance?

I sometimes get "138" and from what I've found it appears to be a
combo of Apple's Java and Maven 2.0.9.

The solution, albeit ham-fisted, is to simply run the command again.

I have not tested 2.0.10 or SoyLatte, but I will as soon as I have
time.

[Lift] Re: Feedback on screen cast, please

[TylerWeir]

The fact it's real-time is excellent.

It's the right amount of info/code to whet someone's appetite to dive
into Lift a bit more.  And since the amount of code is small, someone
would be able to follow along easily.

The areas of improvement would be upping to production levels a bit.
The PeepCode screencasts are what come to mind as a standard to aspire
to.

Nice stuff.  I've been knocking the idea around with Derek and Marius
for screencasts.  I think it's a logical extension of the book.

You may consider showing:
- comet coolness - either the chat or the tic tac toe app, get someone
to play against you
- the cleanliness of the templates
- the scalability, high bang for buck
- the cleanliness of the language
- the simplicity of adding an API with the rewrites

[Lift] Re: Scala Exception

[TylerWeir]

Did you clean first?

Is this new code?

Can you copy the code in that it's complaining about?

In the future, include more information in the original message.
You'll get more help if you make it easy to help you.

Ok, I grabbed the right version.

I also added the Lift .jars from my .m2 repository to my Build Path.

That seems to be it.  All is happy happy.

Thanks Miles, great stuff.

There is an odd issue with quotes getting stripped from the book

[Lift] Getting Lift and Eclipse to make sweet sweet love.

[TylerWeir]

I was messaging back and forth with Miles on twitter about getting
Content Assist working with Eclipse.

I'm in no way educated about Eclipse, Miles thought it better to
create a thread.

To recap:

I grabbed the latest from here: http://www.scala-lang.org/node/94

I created a new empty project named LiftTest.

I ran "Import..." and selected the Lift source tree which is the git
repo.

I wanted to test it out, so I jumped to Entry.scala in HelloLift and
added an attribute to the model.

I was hoping that as I typed "Mapp" that Content Assist would give me
options for completion.  But it did not appear.

@miles - What step am I missing to enable Content Assist?

[Lift] Re: CRUDifying a model

[TylerWeir]

Look at the definition of Loc in Loc.scala

And look at Entry.scala in HelloLift:

 val sitemap = List(Menu(Loc("CreateEntry", List("entry"),
  "Create An Entry",
  If(User.loggedIn_? _, "Please login"))),
 Menu(Loc("ViewEntry", List("view"),
  "View An Entry", Hidden)),
 Menu(Loc("ViewBlog", List("blog"), "View Blog")))
