Hi all, I am just wondering: I have two small extensions ready to release, and several others are brewing. As was discussed on this list, it was preferred not to have such extensions part of the core code, in order to not increase code bloat, feature creep, and to increase maintainability of the c

Oh, sorry, I was unclear: yes, you are fully right, every extension should have its own folder. The question is just, should they be 1) Grouped in one SemanticMediaWikiExt directory 2) Be first level on the MediaWiki/extensions directory 3) Be grouped in a SemanticMediaWiki/extensions/ directory 4

Can I just chime in as a below-technical par user of these things. Whatever you do, can you think about the consequences for maintenance by end users (I mean MW administrators of course) with SVN. Right now in Mediawiki proper (unless I've been totally dumb and there is a better way I haven't figu

The idea of an SMW "extensions" directory sounds very interesting, and maybe presents itself as a long-term solution to the problem of getting all the SMW extensions into one package - the vaunted "Semantic Bundle". Yes, I'm doing what I can to try to get people to know about all the extensions, bu

Ugh, you do realize that once you use any of those options other than the current (which is a mediawiki svn standard) it instantly becomes impossible to let users use the Extension Distributor to get a copy of that individual extension? And if you put it inside of a SemanticMediaWiki/extensions/

Well, could the Extension Distributor be modified to allow for extensions located somewhere other than the top-level directory? If not, that's one of those technical obstacles that has to be considered. I don't see people getting code they don't want as a big problem - I guess I take Rolf's positi

To tell you the truth, I don't see any benefit of having extensions to be inside SMWExt folder - it's not a huge trouble to increase number of folders in mediawiki/trunk/extensions/ and considering generic tools for distribution (and hopefully installation in the future) I'd vote for keeping them a

It's an extension that lets users get "tarballs" on-the-fly from SVN for a specific extension. You can see it in action here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor -Yaron 2008/8/18 Nathan Yergler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Do you have a link for Extension Distributor? I'm not

Re: [SMW-devel] A place for small extensions

2008-08-18 Thread Daniel Friesen
It would probably be easier to develop something similar to the Extension distributor and install it on semantic-mediawiki.org. Basically you would give it a list of extension folders, and when someone requests it would build a tarball of all those folders, making sure to svn up first. You coul
