[sword-devel] eBible.org repo testing update

2015-08-08 Thread Kahunapule Michael Johnson
Title: signature

  
  
The following tweaks have been made to the eBible.org Sword
repository, so far:

  Removed IPV6  record, forcing references to eBible.org to
resolve to its IPV4 address, because anonymous ftp doesn't work
with IPV6 (for reasons not immediately clear to me, but
documented to be so).
  Corrected an issue with file permissions on in both the ztext
subdirectories and in the zipped versions of them.
  Added InstallSize support in the .conf files.
  
  Adjusted the proftpd configuration to allow anonymous ftp
login with both the default user name "anonymous" and the less
common but easier to type convention "ftp". This turns out to be
important, because the Sword library defaults to supplying the
"ftp" user name when none is specified.
  Added http access (needed for JSword).

The new repo is at ftp://eBible.org/pub/sword and at
  http://eBible.org/sword (same files either way). Secure
  https://eBible.org/sword also works, not that there is anything
  sensitive to encrypt, but that protocol can bypass ISP-level
  caches when you want to make sure you have the latest files.
For the anonymous ftp login, no password is required, but
  supplying an email address, or something that looks like an email
  address, that indicates which front end was downloading would be
  nice. Or use whatever the Sword library defaults to. Whatever you
  put there ends up in the server logs, and really has nothing to do
  with email, but might be nice to analyze from time to time.

Pocket Sword likes to download search indexes rather than
  building them on the fly. What is the best way to generate these?
  Where should they be put in the repository? Is there some
  documentation or at least samples on these?

As I type this, the module rebuild process is about half done.
  (It takes about 30 hours, but that includes all outputs, including
  HTML, inScript, etc., for over 700 projects, some of which are
  very restricted in their distribution due to copyright permission
  issues.)

2015-08-08 Thread Kahunapule Michael Johnson

  
  
Starting now, the eBible.org repo
  supports both http and anonymous ftp. Apparently, both are needed.
  
  For http access, the repo is at http://eBible.org/sword/.
  (This is slightly shorter than the anonymous ftp URL at
  ftp://eBible.org/pub/sword/. The /pub/ is there more for tradition
  than for any real need to be there.) Secure http works, too, at
  https://eBible.org/sword/, which might be useful to bypass
  ISP-level caches and get a fresh copy of a new module from time to
  time. The actual files accessed through ftp, http, and https are
  identical. The indexes for http purposes are the default Apache
  indexes with the indexes option turned on.

PocketSword does not support HTTP access to module sources.
Only FTP.

Re: [sword-devel] Uighur Cyrillic Repository

2015-08-08 Thread Kahunapule Michael Johnson

  
  
I would be happy to add the Bibles in
  the Uighur Cyrillic module source to the eBible.org repository,
  with full ftp and http access. All I ask is the USFM source files,
  the necessary metadata, and permission to do so.  :-)

Thank you, Karl.  :-) 
  
  I'm regenerating the repository, now, with InstallSize in the
  .conf files and repaired permissions.

When is the Uighur Cyrillic module source going to become available as a

i.e. With anonymous FTP access for modules to be downloaded direct from any

Re: [sword-devel] heads up - languages/repo frontend problem

2015-08-08 Thread David Haslam
IMPORTANT for Kahunapule Michael...

PocketSword does not have UI options to specify username and password for a
[new] FTP repository.

This means that requiring username=anonymous is currently a non-starter for
PS.

In Manage Sources, I just tried adding the new repo, and I got a continuous
"eggtimer" when I returned to the list of module sources.  Had to stop the
app.  After starting the app again, the new repo was listed, but "NO MODULES
HERE. TRY A REFRESH." Refreshing does nothing.

One for Nic Carter next:

PocketSword | Downloads | Manage Sources has no UI option to remove a
user-added module source!
Refreshing Source List does not remove the one I just added. It would seem
I'm stuck with the unusable added source. There ought to be an edit option
as well as a delete option.

I will copy this message directly to Nic.


Best regards,

David
