Planet SoC

Hi !

The Google Summer of Code has finally ended the August 18th. The three outputs formats I planned to do are available (CHM, PDF, Manpage) and one of the two project specific “themes” (PEAR done, not PHP-GTK).

I also wrote a KDevelop format (which render an index and a TOC of the PHP Manual for the KDevelop application) and worked on PhD Enterprise, the last version (0.4.0).

I will keep working on PhD Enterprise until at least few working formats are moved to this new branch.

See you in another life :)

Hopefully it is not rubbish!

What? This week is the final week….

Randomly my work ethic has gone through the roof, and I’ve done a feature a day this week.

Roll on the rest of the week…..

So Google Summer of Code.

Its been fun, I can’t believe it is the end.
I should have really written more code, but my plan involves being involved on my project for quite a while yet.
But then it is a from scratch project, and had to rewrite the core three times.

Luckily it is now flexible enough to work properly.

I am doing the new PHP bugtracker, it currently has basic functionality, and it maybe ‘pens down’ on Monday, me I am gonna keep going and committing, as this bug tracker needs finishing.

Alas I have lost tonight to having to fill in for a friend at work, but then tomorrow its all code, assumed my 360 doesnt distract me, we shall see.

Hopefully by this time tomorrow, we shall have a lot more done, which was the plan today, but some house things got in the way and now its on to nearly time to go to work, (its work in a bar hence UK evening time).

Just been reading http://planet-soc.com/node/3373

Pens up? Congrats for you :-)

Me no where near, but the project extends further than GSoC, most people I imagine just do the project over the summer and then forget about it I imagine.

But you forget, the point of GSoC is to get you involved with Open Source projects, as well as keeping your coding eye in.
IE, projects don’t have to finish when GSoC does.

So to me GSoC just meant I had money over the summer without having to do a crappy job, and I also became part of the PHP team, in a way, yes at the moment only on my project, but it leads the way to become involved in other ways, how this turns out for me I don’t know.

GSoC has been fun and interesting, just to see nearly 1000 people on a single IRC channel alone was great fun so many people waiting for deadlines.

I look forward to GSoC next year, the question is will it be same/similar project or a different one, only time will tell

Hi!

This week, I finished PDF output. When I began to move to the next scheduled item, DBHTML (Docbook processing instructions for HTML rendering) implementation, my mentor introduce a bigger project than ever: Enterprise PhD (v2.0-XP ^_^).

The main purpose is to clear the main defaults of PhD with a new implementation. XML Index informations are now stored on a SQLite3 database, Formats/themes “interface” has been renewed (now there are just formats which can be used as themes), Observer Design Pattern is used almost everywhere (with SplObjectStorage class of the Standard PHP Library), and formats have now access to more data.

I’m in charge of fixing bugs (my mentor wrote the main part of this new PhD), adding new features (it seems I have carte blanche), and (later) porting PhD formats I wrote.

For I have sinned.

Er more precisely haven’t updated my blog in a looooong time.

So, development is coming along albeit a little slower, such is the fun of having a shed load of side projects on the go, most fo them are now outta the way, so it is GSoC all the way, except for the very big side project over there (points).

But most of the stuff I write for GSoC is gonn get copied into that :-)

Hurrah!

Anyway back to devin…..

The current progress of Rudy Nappée on Google Summer of Code ‘08.

Hi !

Time is come for a little summary of this project. What I had to do:
* To write new output formats: CHM, Manpages, PDF
* To write themes: PEAR HTML theme, PHP-GTK HTML theme
* To design DBHTML implementation in PhD

Currently, I’m done with CHM output, Manpage output format (and its own PHP theme) and PEAR theme for HTML format.

PDF is almost done (probably this weekend or next week). It remains two or three weeks to work on PHP-GTK theme and to begin PhD DBHTML implementation design.

Hi !

Here was the hardest GSoC week ! I wrote a big part of the PDF output and both the themes “phppdf” (each PHP manual part in a file) and “phpbigpdf” (a big PDF file with all the sections).

Examples: Installation & Configuration chapter - Full Manual

What’s done:
* PDF Table of content
* URL links
* internal links
* admonition paragraphs (tips, note, example, warning …)
* bullet-lists
* tables (not finished)
* basic stuff (font/style/color changing, auto line wrap, line jumps, auto newline, …)

If I’m good with tables, this output may be released the next week !

See you
