| Re: Re: This is pretty cool. Feb 18 2014 on content Farm Manager | The wiki got taken down. It was actually designed to be able to download the wiki locally for offline access as well as toggle between online and local. It'll just give some weird errors now. The backend code is written but not fully present in this version.
I actually developed the app much further since the last submission but I've pretty much given up on it and won't be releasing further versions.
At the moment the "Today" page is fully functional with fully working weather, remainders etc. A proper settings dialog has been implemented so that you can customize some of the things like location for weather.
I've also added a report generator that provides a detailed report (in .pdf) on the animal such as plots of the animal's weight, medical records, family tree etc. I also cleaned up a number of bugs.
Stock management works very well and all the major problems and shortcomings have been resolved. You can even do some custom stuff now and it's now fairly feature rich.
The breeding interface now functions reasonably well. You can create family trees, monitor lineage to help avoid excessive inbreeding and/or bread for specific traits (has a little pseudo generational gene calculator). Its not very feature rich but then again I stopped development.
A place where there was a particular improvement is the management of the actual animals. More fields have been added. Custom fields are now possible. I had to clean up the "edit" box a bit and its actually really quite nice and feature rich. I'm particularly proud of the fact that you can now add a "Remainder" to the animal that will alert you on the "Today" page and/or make a pop up with customizable tone. Vaccinations also now work and the Today page will list animals awaiting vaccinations and remind you when new ones are due. The rules for this unfortunately are defined in an awkward but simple way with no GUI to configure as of yet.
Lastly it now has support for multiple "databases" as well as multiple configurations that you can load on demand. It's also properly packaged now and follows typical Linux and KDE conventions.
In all honesty its probably more like close to a v1.0 release now but I just can't be bothered anymore. Sorry, but I just don't have the time at the moment to put out a release and then support it (not like I really supported it before).
Thanks for your interest and I'm sorry it isn't in a better state. There was just so little interest originally that I felt abandoning it would be better than wasting my time further on it. Maybe in a year or so I'll get back to this when I've graduated and have some time. |
| | | Re: Re: Bug with charset Jan 29 2013 on content Quick Share | Sorry. I started exams and then it was holidays and from there everything just sort of went crazy.
Umm, yeah basically it has to do with me not having a very good system of working with the files. At the moment the app doesn't support anything but a-z, 0-9 and select characters in the entire file path. Heck, even spaces cause issues so "/home/Joe Blog/anything.pdf" = error; "/home/JoeBlog/anything.pdf" = fine.
I know how to fix that up so I should hopefully get round to it sometime this week. I'm also going to quite drastically refactor the code and just change the general file handling so that its more bulletproof. |
| | | Re: opening in a browser Dec 5 2012 on content Quick Share | You need to add files/directories for it to share. You should do something like open dolphin on the side. Start the program. Then drag a few files over (the program supports drag and drop) and start the server. Now open your browser with either the button or manually and it should list files and directories for you that you can download.
Its a very simple program that's designed for really fast sharing of files/directories over a network. There is no fancy web ui, just something like "Directory Listing for" and a couple of files and folders.
I did; however, notice that there was a bug with the the file add dialog. I have fixed it in the latest release. Also I added a few features. |
| | | Re: installation Dec 3 2012 on content Quick Share | The setup.py is used to generate distribution packages. You can't use it to install the program and as far as I know you can't use it with Arch packages.
You should be able to just run "python run.py" or make it executable and run it. By thew way it was built up on python 2.7 and I think Arch is one of the few distro's that has moved to python 3.x. So you might have to run "python2.7 run.py" |
| | | Re: Fake ? Nov 12 2012 on content Financeiro | This guy also posted old code on apps.owncloud.org
Maybe he is a translator or something but he shouldn't be posting stuff without description etc.
I'll try report as spam because that is what it looks like. |
| | | Re: Re: Re: Python Script Driver missing Oct 29 2012 on content Bumblebee Indicatior | Alright so I have looked into this. I have really no clue how your install didn't have this included by default. This package seems to be included with PyKDE4 which all KDE installations include.
I won't be adding this to the requirements as I feel it may be confusing to new users who may try look for this package but not find it in their repos.
Thanks for the heads up though! |
