News from Typo edge
I have updated this blog engine in order to install the recently added Feedburner support. My recent post about Rails heroes RSS feeds clearly showed me that feedburner was a must have as everybody is using it. Feedburner gives you an idea of your RSS traffic.
Here are some more recently added features to Typo:
- Feedburner support, see also here for a discussion about that subject
- Dynamic url system
- Top commentators plugin
More info, for French readers, here
I encountered some small issues during this update. Here they are, so you can avoid them.
Install
Since my last post about Typo installation from git, the plugin management has changed. Typo now uses gems. Therefore, to install locally Typo, the process is now:
git clone git://github.com/fdv/typo.git
sudo gem install htmlentities coderay json calendar_date_select
sudo gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
sudo gem install datanoise-actionwebservice mislav-will_paginate
Rake db:migrateYou can still manage the plugins such as related content or recent comments using git submodules.
Routes
Some routes have changed. Therefore, you will probably need to update your theme. For instance: in theme/views/articles_comment_form.html.erb I replaced:
comments_path(@article)
by
@article.comment_url
and
preview_new_comment_path(@article)
by
@article.preview_comment_urlFor the live search: in theme/views/shared_search.html.erb I replaced:
{ :controller => 'live', :action => 'search' }
by
live_search_articles_urlCache
This is about Typo edge. It is not supposed to be a stable version. So use with caution! Right now the cache needs some improvement which should be done soon. Temporarily, I have disabled it by commenting in app/model/blog_sweeper.rb the line:
observe Category, Blog, User, Article, Page, Categorization, Comment, TrackbackAbout recent news, Matijs van Zuijlen has joined the Typo core team.
Thanks a lot to the Typo core team, Fred, Cyril and Matijs, for their excellent work and also for their extremely reactive support.
