eLua Web Builder Tutorial
Locked
|
Hello,
An entry-level tutorial for the eLua Web Builder is now available on the eLua User Labs at the Tutorials' page or directly at http://wiki.eluaproject.net/eLuaWebBuilderBasics Time is always short and my english is far from decent so any help is welcome. Any registered user on the wiki can edit that (and other) entries. This actually takes (at least for me) more time to create than recording a video so I may try this option one of these days too.

Hi Nice idea. Unfortunately using it here with ubuntu and firefox I find I can't add files to the ROMFS image. On "Rom filesystem - add files" I get the popup box shadowing the main window but clicking the "add files" button does nothing (well, the button goes down and up but nothing more)d enabled. Is anyone else seeing similar problems? FWIW, I do have java and javascript present an M _______________________________________________ eLua-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev |

Martin,
It's working well to me with Ubuntu ( Linux 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 28 13:27:30 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux ) and Firefox 3.6.3. Notice that you should first send your files to the server using the button "BROWSER" to select your local files and then "upload files". After that you have to select the files you want on romfs by clicking on + (plus button). It's a bit confusing, but we have problems to change this "BROWSER" button on our flash component.

I see no BROWSER button here. I have two buttons on the main page: "New Build" and "Upload Files". Note that I don't use Adobe flash player because it is a closed-source black-box security hole. Is that what you mean by "flash component"? If so, a simpler interface would be more open-source friendly, as well as opening the site to many more browsers. I thought basic HTML had an "Upload file" mechanism, but maybe that won't do what you need at the server end?

Hello there,
On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 05:38, Martin Guy <[hidden email]> wrote: .............. Hi Marting. Right above the Upload Files button there is a doesn't-look-too-much-like-a-button-and-we-can-change-it-eventually button labeled BROWSE (not BROWSER). Clicking on it will bring you a dialog where you can select (multiple) files and upload them (simultaneously) to your "Stored Files Area", where they'll be kept for you to be used in your builds. Once you have files in your stored files area, each time you do a "New Build" (or edit a previous build configuration) you can select files from this area to be included in the ROMFS. Note that I don't use Adobe flash player because it is a closed-source Humm, I feel that this will raise some more nice discussions here :) and we'll see what is best for everyone. The basic "Upload file" mechanism as you called, like many other fancy things we can do with flash, doesn't support multiple/simultaneous file uploads. I'm not sure if one can live without Flash locally and although any closed-source black-box is indeed a security-hole, I don't remember having heard about big problems with Flash. Thanks again for the reports and feedback
Best Dado

If you're asking whether one can live without Flash on their machine, the answer is probably 'yes'. Apple has sold millions of iPod Touches, iPhones, and iPads, none of which use Flash. I use the Firefox FlashBlock addon, and only occasionally choose to enable it. The swfupload project (http://code.google.com/p/swfupload/) wraps the uploader in Javascript to enable a fallback mechanism if the Flash doesn't run, and the gmail attachment uploader offers a settings page which can be configured to use either Flash or the HTML uploader. If we could duplicate this fall-back functionality, I think that would be acceptable to all. I'll probably whitelist the web builder, but I'd rather not see us dependent on Flash for a number of reasons: - It's a security hole. Flash security problems allow more control over the user's computer (Webcam? Microphone?) than other programs which need security patches. - It's a buggy program. I experience crashes more often due to the Flash plugin than for any other reason. - It's a bandwidth hog. An HTML based uploader would load the page faster, put less stress on your servers (which should be optimized for the build process) and take less space on my limited internet connection. Also, flash ads. - It's a CPU/memory hog. Hopefully this is not an issue for the little upload script, but playing fullscreen video in Flash takes more system resources than any alternative video options I've used. - It's a black box. Enough said. I respect your choice to provide Flash based services, but I hope you understand that users may choose not to use them. I too hope that this can remain a "nice discussion." -- Kevin Vermeer _______________________________________________ eLua-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev |

Wait, our builder depends on Flash ? :) I must confess that I completely missed this. If so, I'd very much like to change that, if at all possible, for the reasons outlined above by Kevin. One can upload using regular HTTP (see for example http://www.websupergoo.com/file-upload-1.htm, the first link that I google came up with for "http upload").

Oh, and I should also point out that the word "Intelligent" is
misspelled in the "Main Uses->Inteligent Sensors"[sic] dropdown on the account creation page. Not sure if this is the place, but it needs to get fixed. -- Kevin Vermeer _______________________________________________ eLua-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev |

Hello Kevin and Martin, We alredy know that some limitations of the current uploader but was simple to implement and most of cases works well. As soon as possible we'll change for a more flexible and compatible widget.
Thanks for the report. Vagner 2010/8/10 Kevin Vermeer <[hidden email]>

Hi Bogdan, the current is JQuery Uploadify. The issue report is about upload files without flash installed, then we are working to provide this.
Thanks. Vagner
