Haberdasher RSS

Posted by Esteban Manchado Mon, 25 Feb 2008 22:29:00 GMT

Haberdasher has been quite silent in the last months. I wanted to add some things, but I never got to actually devote some time to them, partly because of my work on dhelp.

However, yesterday I added something that I wanted to add long ago: some simple changes in the RSS code, to make it actually useful. Namely, (1) now the pre tag is used for the patch contents, so they are readable, and (2) each news item adds the name of the program the patch is for (it used to be just the patch name/description, which is not that descriptive if you don’t know which program it’s for of course).

Those changes are of course updated now in the demo installation, so go and have a look at the new patches feed or some application patches feed (in this case, my fake PDF::Writer patches).

Comments welcome :-)

Haberdasher demo available

At last! I have prepared an online demo of Haberdasher. Now you can play around with it, as an anonymous user or logging in with demo/demo123.

It has a limit of 50K for patches, so don’t be surprised if you upload a bigger one and it gets truncated :-)

Have fun, and tell me what you think!

EDIT: The link to the demo was wrong, gah! Thanks to JoaquĆ­n for noticing.
