  3. # [00:00] <Garbee> fabuloso_, Workflow for what?
  4. # [00:00] <fabuloso_> for using scss and css pre processors
  5. # [00:00] <HammHetfield> Garbee: I have yet to have a definitive opinion on the topic
  6. # [00:00] <fabuloso_> for web design work
  7. # [00:00] <Garbee> Oh ok.
  8. # [00:00] <Garbee> For a sec I thought you meant a workflow section on the Docs.
  9. # [00:00] <fabuloso_> sorry man..
  10. # [00:00] <HammHetfield> I got my "own" convention over time, and discovered style guides just recently
  11. # [00:01] * HammHetfield is a spec nerd
  12. # [00:01] <Garbee> fabuloso_, It is fine. I was just confused.
  13. # [00:01] <fabuloso_> gotcha

  16. # [00:01] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Paul mentioned this one to me earlier: https://github.com/rwldrn/idiomatic.js/
  17. # [00:01] <fr0zenice> that one is quire lengthy
  18. # [00:01] <fr0zenice> *quite
  19. # [00:01] <HammHetfield> first one of the list of the page I started about style guides :p
  20. # [00:02] * Quits: amirouche (~amirouche@unaffiliated/amirouche) (Quit: Bye!)
  21. # [00:02] <Garbee> I would try to use that one for now for sample JS code until we discuss and decide which to chose.
  22. # [00:02] <HammHetfield> but, unlike addy osmani, I find it difficult to understand
  23. # [00:02] <Garbee> Yea, any style guide we do would need to be watered down I think.
  24. # [00:02] <HammHetfield> I'd rather see "text-based" rules with examples, rather than examples with Good/Bad comments
  25. # [00:03] <Garbee> Yea, it would be text based with some demo snippets to show the layout.
  26. # [00:03] <fr0zenice> the jQuery one looks mostly like idiomatic.js, but is much shorter
  27. # [00:03] <Garbee> Doing it all in code/comments is a little extreme.
  28. # [00:03] <HammHetfield> and better explained IMO
  29. # [00:03] <HammHetfield> I'd go with jQuery's
  30. # [00:03] <HammHetfield> if I had to pick some temporary one right now
  31. # [00:04] <fr0zenice> would say so, too
  32. # [00:04] <Garbee> Then go with that, but don't actually code in jquery. ;)
  33. # [00:04] <HammHetfield> lol
  34. # [00:04] <fr0zenice> ^^
  35. # [00:04] <HammHetfield> <flamewar>
  36. # [00:04] <HammHetfield> keep going
  37. # [00:04] <Garbee> Oh, there is no flamewar, it is just done.
  38. # [00:04] * eighty4 slowly backs away
  39. # [00:04] <HammHetfield> disappointing but alright
  40. # [00:04] <HammHetfield> </flamewar>
  41. # [00:04] <Garbee> They apparently are having some talk if jquery is going to have a place in the docs. I have seen some stuff relating to it floating around.
  42. # [00:05] <Garbee> I'm personally going to push for it not to happen actually if it comes up for discussion from what I'm thinking at this moment.
  43. # [00:05] <HammHetfield> if documenting one, all libs would eventually be documented at some point
  44. # [00:05] <Garbee> Exactly.
  45. # [00:05] <HammHetfield> not sure that'd really be useful
  46. # [00:05] <Garbee> I don't want to fall into that kind of a thing.
  47. # [00:06] <HammHetfield> maybe just keep it to 1-page tutorials
  48. # [00:06] <Garbee> jQuery should be treated like every other framework. No major documentation on WPD on it.
  49. # [00:06] <HammHetfield> kind of like the TodoMVC thing
  50. # [00:06] <HammHetfield> but in getting-started format instead of example
  51. # [00:06] <HammHetfield> that could be nice, but um… yeah
  52. # [00:06] <Garbee> Nah. It would just be in a list of trusted JS frameworks imo. Just like anything else would be treated.
  53. # [00:07] <HammHetfield> if someone decides to document dojo or yui… -_-"
  54. # [00:07] <HammHetfield> that'd make lengthy pages, mostly just copy-paste from official docs
  55. # [00:07] <eighty4> it's fairly good documentet on their site
  56. # [00:07] <eighty4> and any attempt at doing it "better" should be done on their site
  57. # [00:07] <HammHetfield> well the purpose of the website is to have 1 place for all documentation
  58. # [00:07] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Copy and paste is strong words. Use with very much caution.
  59. # [00:08] <Garbee> are strong words*
  60. # [00:08] <HammHetfield> so it would kind of make sense to have such a mainstream framework documented there...
  61. # [00:08] <eighty4> HammHetfield: right, but doing it for JS would be one thing.
  62. # [00:08] <HammHetfield> at the same time… well jQuery has its own doc...
  63. # [00:08] <Garbee> I wouldn't go as far as all documentation.
  64. # [00:09] <fr0zenice> 1 place for all documentation for the standards, not the libraries
  65. # [00:10] <HammHetfield> good point
  66. # [00:10] <Garbee> Paul stated earlier it is one place "to provide practical information and documentation for web developers." I think yes jQuery fits into this for most devs, but some do prefer other frameworks.
  67. # [00:10] <Garbee> Docing one just means inviting others.
  68. # [00:10] * Joins: chaasof (~chatzilla@41.228.200.180)
  69. # [00:10] <Garbee> Just like docing server-side tech will get us with an unmanageable mess, I think libraries could cause the same effect.
  70. # [00:11] <HammHetfield> now I wonder why there is a Information Architecture section in the Concepts page
  71. # [00:11] <fr0zenice> what fits is the general notion, that there are libraries to make your life easier, with a list
  72. # [00:11] <HammHetfield> like… doesn't really think it's practical information and doc for web developers
  73. # [00:12] <Garbee> fr0zenice, Yea. Honestly, I'm thinking it might serve best as a subsection or sub-page of the Dev Tools.
  74. # [00:13] <Garbee> Since they are things Devs use to make their (our) lives easier.
  75. # [00:13] <fr0zenice> I guess they can be viewed as "tools", yeah.
  76. # [00:13] <eighty4> but where to draw that line? If LESS might be included, shouldn't sublime text 2 also be included?
  77. # [00:14] <eighty4> or at least xdebug
  78. # [00:14] <HammHetfield> yeah a dev tools could easily list preprocessors, softwares, online services
  79. # [00:14] <Garbee> I'd say they can fall under tools since it is something that aids you. That is exactly what a tool does.
  80. # [00:14] <Garbee> the fact that it is a library or preprocessor is just getting into the specific categorization.
  81. # [00:15] <fr0zenice> right
  82. # [00:15] <Garbee> I'm going to mock the page up and shoot out to the Mailing List asking for more input on it before it is opened for public editing.
  83. # [00:15] <eighty4> right, but the section would get overwhelmingly large
  84. # [00:15] <Garbee> Just to figure out what the exact scope of the section should be.
  85. # [00:15] <Garbee> eighty4, I got tricks for handling that.
  86. # [00:15] <HammHetfield> at the same time, I'd expect content to get more and more precise/specific as people start participating
  87. # [00:16] <eighty4> HammHetfield: true
  88. # [00:16] * Joins: jarek__ (~jarek@aegu3.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl)
  89. # [00:16] <eighty4> I'd love a section about sublime text 2 packages :)
  90. # [00:16] <Garbee> HammHetfield, That is just it. The DevTools section is just a general overview of *widely* supported tools. It will also go into details and specific tutorials on using developer tools in a browser (such as Google Chrome and Firefox.)
  91. # [00:16] <HammHetfield> once JS APIs are covered, CSS & html specs are covered… either it'll just be updating, or it'll become a huge specific wikipédia with information about everything
  92. # [00:17] <Garbee> eighty4, No. That is *way* out of scope.
  93. # [00:17] <Garbee> But, things are in the works on that front...
  94. # [00:17] <eighty4> :)
  95. # [00:17] * Quits: jarek (~jarek@unaffiliated/jarek) (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)
  96. # [00:17] <Garbee> (just somewhere else. More details in a few weeks.)
  97. # [00:17] <fr0zenice> HammHetfield: there's still /tutorials :)
  98. # [00:18] <HammHetfield> for instance, I didn't notice any section about IE bugs and fixes
  99. # [00:19] * Quits: harryrf (~harryrf@pool-108-8-121-68.sctnpa.east.verizon.net) (Quit: ZNC - http://znc.in)
  100. # [00:19] <HammHetfield> at least to me, that totally qualifies as practical documentation
  101. # [00:19] <fr0zenice> some of those are in compatibility notes, like http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/html/elements/p#Compatibility_Notes
  102. # [00:19] <HammHetfield> especially stuff I have a hard time finding when I need them
  103. # [00:20] <HammHetfield> stuff like hasLayout or the fixed line-height for buttons in FF etc etc
  104. # [00:20] <HammHetfield> all these quirks and oddities of browsers
  105. # [00:20] <Garbee> Some have even expressed the thought that once it is all documented, the site could get involved in standards creation.
  106. # [00:20] <Garbee> That is well into the future though.
  107. # [00:21] <fr0zenice> Web 3.0 ^^
  108. # [00:21] <Garbee> HammHetfield, They are trying to document oddities like that.
  109. # [00:21] <Garbee> Like in HTML for the P element.
  110. # [00:21] <Garbee> It has a block pointing out an IE8 quirk with tables.
  111. # [00:21] <HammHetfield> don't know if that's planned, but it'd be awesome to have some kind of platform allowing people to create tests
  112. # [00:21] <Garbee> HammHetfield, You mean like jsfiddle?
  113. # [00:21] <HammHetfield> Garbee: no
  114. # [00:22] <HammHetfield> it's an idea I had a while ago to make some community-generated caniuse
  115. # [00:22] <fr0zenice> Garbee: I already wrote that :D
  116. # [00:22] <Garbee> HammHetfield, I'm not sure I understand the "tests" you would want.
  117. # [00:22] <HammHetfield> so I could create a test with markup + a screenshot of what it's supposed to look like
  118. # [00:22] <Garbee> fr0zenice, Wrote what?
  119. # [00:22] <fr0zenice> the P IE quirk
  120. # [00:22] <Garbee> Oh. I know, it was an awesome addition.
  121. # [00:23] <HammHetfield> then anybody can open that test page and click a button to say if it's behaving as expected in their browser
  122. # [00:23] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Ah things like that.
  123. # [00:23] <HammHetfield> kind of like unit testing, except it's based on user input
  124. # [00:23] <fr0zenice> crowd testing :o
  125. # [00:23] * Quits: jarek__ (~jarek@aegu3.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl) (Quit: jarek__)
  126. # [00:24] <HammHetfield> I especially thought about that for compatibility for email clients and mobile phones/browsers
  127. # [00:24] <Garbee> HammHetfield, That would be quite complicated if even possible.
  128. # [00:24] * Joins: jarek (~jarek@unaffiliated/jarek)
  129. # [00:24] <HammHetfield> those are just impossible to test for a limited set of people, and anybody willing to contribute would be able to fire up a page, and say whether or not it works properly
  130. # [00:24] <HammHetfield> from their phone, by email, in their browser, in IE or whatever
  131. # [00:25] <Garbee> Well, we could figure out a way to do some PHP to pass information to the test page.
  132. # [00:25] <Garbee> Flexbox is something that has caught my eye for docing too...
  133. # [00:25] <HammHetfield> or you can just pre-fill some form based on UA and let user change them if needed
  134. # [00:25] <eighty4> HammHetfield: sounds doable if I understand what you want
  135. # [00:25] <HammHetfield> eighty4: oh yeah it is doable
  136. # [00:26] <ravenzz> do it then
  137. # [00:26] <HammHetfield> only reason I didn't do it myself already is that I wouldn't have any community to contribute
  138. # [00:26] <HammHetfield> so I'd be doing it all by myself, so the platform itself becomes moot
  139. # [00:26] <ravenzz> github it there for you
  140. # [00:26] <HammHetfield> still not the problem
  141. # [00:26] <Garbee> Well, the problem is passing things between subdomains.
  142. # [00:27] <Garbee> I think.
  143. # [00:27] <eighty4> Garbee: not sure I follow.
  144. # [00:27] <HammHetfield> me neither...
  145. # [00:27] <eighty4> why would subdomains be a problem?
  146. # [00:27] <Garbee> You would need to pass content from within mediawiki based on that input and then send it over to a subdomain that has no direct connection to the mediawiki install.
  147. # [00:27] <Garbee> I think I'm overthinking the solution.
  148. # [00:27] <eighty4> still not following at all :/
  149. # [00:27] <Garbee> ^^for doing group testing like that from within WPD.
  150. # [00:27] <HammHetfield> does mediawiki support frames ?
  151. # [00:28] <Garbee> It should support them.
  152. # [00:28] <HammHetfield> then tests could be done from anywhere/any website and be included in there
  153. # [00:28] <Garbee> I think there are security concerns in this case though.
  154. # [00:28] <eighty4> Garbee: right you're talking about implementing it direktly into WPD. But that can't be a problem.
  155. # [00:28] <eighty4> it must be solvable
  156. # [00:28] <HammHetfield> of course it is :D
  157. # [00:29] <Garbee> eighty4, Yea. I think I'm just overthinking it.
  158. # [00:29] <eighty4> If HammHetfield (possibly with help) coded it someone would be able to include it.
  159. # [00:29] <HammHetfield> eighty4: yeah that's what it looks like
  160. # [00:30] <HammHetfield> crowd testing is probably the best definition for it
  161. # [00:30] <HammHetfield> I'll just give it a go
  162. # [00:30] <Garbee> Nah. Crowdsourcing a test.
  163. # [00:30] <eighty4> I'm thinking "image" <--- this is what it should look like. "html" <--- is it looking like this, Possibility to overlay the image. And such futures.
  164. # [00:30] <HammHetfield> right
  165. # [00:30] <fr0zenice> there's already "crowdsource testing"
  166. # [00:30] <HammHetfield> eighty4: yeah, doesn't need to be any simpler
  167. # [00:31] <Garbee> See, I see stuff like that and I can only think it will end up leading to doing normal support which most people seem to not want to do here.
  168. # [00:31] <eighty4> HammHetfield: Possibliy with the option to upload your result?
  169. # [00:32] <HammHetfield> then a simple yes/no buttons, and ability to change your browser/device information
  170. # [00:32] * Quits: alvincrespo (~Adium@h69-131-103-71.wltonh.dsl.dynamic.tds.net) (Quit: Leaving.)
  171. # [00:32] <HammHetfield> Garbee: normal support to what ?
  172. # [00:32] <eighty4> might be a bit OT atm :/. But I'd love to have that at work.
  173. # [00:32] <Garbee> I think changing browser/device info wouldn't be needed. It does nothing unless you are asking for device specific content.
  174. # [00:32] <Garbee> The rendering is still done on the same engine as the browser.
  175. # [00:33] <Garbee> So you really gain nothing with that type of system for testing an engine.
  176. # [00:33] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Normal support for just any old issue people seem to have.
  177. # [00:33] <eighty4> HammHetfield: don't forget to include browser info when people submit their yes/no
  178. # [00:33] <Garbee> I think I need to see a prototype to really understand it thought. All I'm thinking is a jsfiddle clone at this point.
  179. # [00:34] <HammHetfield> Garbee: faaaaar from that
  180. # [00:34] <Garbee> With added features to simply submit output.
  181. # [00:34] <HammHetfield> Garbee: I'll work on a prototype
  182. # [00:34] <ravenzz> actually you could build it on top of jsfiddle I think, the user uploads the image and provide the jsfiddle link
  183. # [00:34] * Joins: Ordona (~Ordona@wikimedia/xxcom9a)
  184. # [00:35] <eighty4> good evening Ordona
  185. # [00:35] <ravenzz> you will embed the full screen version of the fiddle
  186. # [00:35] <HammHetfield> meh
  187. # [00:35] <ravenzz> + image
  188. # [00:35] * Joins: wukkuan (~textual@99-4-190-249.lightspeed.gnvlsc.sbcglobal.net)
  189. # [00:35] <Ordona> Evening eighty4
  190. # [00:35] <fr0zenice> I guess uploading a image adds too much complexity
  191. # [00:35] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Ok, you want to dynamically give markup/styles/js to a user to run and then submit their output. jsfiddle does *exactly* that, except the image upload part.
  192. # [00:35] <HammHetfield> Garbee: don't want them to submit their output
  193. # [00:35] <Garbee> er, output submission. in this case a grab of the viewport.
  194. # [00:36] <HammHetfield> I just want them to say whether or not what they see is what they should see
  195. # [00:36] * Quits: wukkuan (~textual@99-4-190-249.lightspeed.gnvlsc.sbcglobal.net) (Client Quit)
  196. # [00:36] <Garbee> HammHetfield, Then this is really just replicating jsfiddle.
  197. # [00:36] <Garbee> And I also think I have seen this kind of stuff before.
  198. # [00:36] <HammHetfield> if so, then it's working properly, if not, then we store that feature X is broken on Y setup
  199. # [00:36] <HammHetfield> nothing like jsfiddle
  200. # [00:36] <Garbee> HammHetfield, No. Won't really be useful.

  202. # [00:36] <Garbee> People can have plugins that affect things.
  203. # [00:37] <HammHetfield> like <span style="color: red;">Some text</span> and an image of "some text" written in red
  204. # [00:37] <Garbee> So you would need to check for plugins and DB those as well, otherwise, the entire setup is moot.
  205. # [00:37] <fr0zenice> throw in some statistical algorithms
  206. # [00:37] <ravenzz> fr0zenice <HammHetfield> so I could create a test with markup + a screenshot of what it's supposed to look like ?
  207. # [00:37] <HammHetfield> and if it doesn't look like that, then there's something broken
  208. # [00:37] <Garbee> OK hold up.

  283. # [01:59] <@paul_irish> all being ie10+
  284. # [02:00] <Garbee> Um, Chrome and Firefox have flex support?
  285. # [02:00] <@paul_irish> they had it first
  286. # [02:00] <pzich> yeah, I've definitely used it in Chrome
  287. # [02:00] <Garbee> I know IE had it first. But didn't know the others have gotten it.
  288. # [02:00] <Garbee> Ok then, cool

  290. # [02:00] <Garbee> It looks so cool.
  291. # [02:00] <@paul_irish> IE had grid in IE10 platform preview X first

  335. # [02:34] <@Ryan_Lane> and it needs to be changed on any page it's used on
  336. # [02:34] <@Ryan_Lane> which is most of them
  337. # [02:34] <@Ryan_Lane> of course, that won't help for logged-in users
  338. # [02:34] <@Ryan_Lane> mediawiki needs improvements for that
  339. # [02:35] <@Ryan_Lane> specifically, same html should be delivered to anons and logged-in users
  340. # [02:35] <@Ryan_Lane> and skin changes should be handled by ESI
  341. # [02:36] <@Ryan_Lane> or if we don't care about users who don't have JS enabled, we could handle the skin changes using javascript

  347. # [02:37] <@Ryan_Lane> mediawiki would send out the same HTML, which would have ESI markup
  348. # [02:37] <@Ryan_Lane> the frontend cache would replace those with calls to the backend
  349. # [02:38] <@Ryan_Lane> taking the JS approach, we'd send the same HTML and we'd replace divs/spans with the appropriate content
  350. # [02:39] <@Ryan_Lane> the goal being that we'd always serve from frontend cache, which is *way* faster
  351. # [02:39] <Garbee> I think down the road once the theme is more ironed out we could leverage browser-side caching more. But with the current state of flux in development I'm with not focusing on it just yet.
  352. # [02:39] <@Ryan_Lane> browser side cache isn't going to help a ton
  353. # [02:39] <Garbee> I'd really think to not go with a JS approach due to possible performance issues client-side.
  354. # [02:39] <@Ryan_Lane> well, the JS approach wouldn't have a lot of performance problems
  355. # [02:40] <@Ryan_Lane> basically, it would be a small amount of JS that makes AJAX calls to pull the personalized content
  356. # [02:40] <@Ryan_Lane> it can be stored in local storage when it's called so it only needs to happen once
  357. # [02:40] <Garbee> Well, considering we are targeting developers and we are (hopefully) trusted to run JS, I don't see an issue with going that route personally.
  358. # [02:40] <@Ryan_Lane> agreed
  359. # [02:40] <@Ryan_Lane> it wouldn't help upstream a lot, but it would work for us
  360. # [02:41] <@Ryan_Lane> and all we'd need to do for that is modify our skin
  361. # [02:41] <Garbee> Although, I would still open that up for discussion in the Mailing List in case anyone else thinks on it more than I am at this time.
  362. # [02:41] <@Ryan_Lane> we'd also need to modify our frontend cache settings to not pass when login cookies are detected
  363. # [02:41] <@Ryan_Lane> but that would have a major impact on performance
  364. # [02:43] <@Ryan_Lane> for sure, though, the {{Special:PrefixIndex}} issue needs to be solved
  365. # [02:43] <@Ryan_Lane> it affects logged-in users and anons
  366. # [02:44] <Garbee> ugh.
  367. # [02:45] <Garbee> More and more I think a custom system would have been the way to go. While taking longer to dev would have been robust and exact to the needs of the system.
  368. # [02:45] <@Ryan_Lane> no way
  369. # [02:46] <@Ryan_Lane> the project is about writing documentation
  370. # [02:46] <Garbee> Yea, not making a CMS.
  371. # [02:46] <@Ryan_Lane> mediawiki is heavily used for this, and there's a lot of extensions written
  372. # [02:47] <@Ryan_Lane> just look at the number of extensions we're using: http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/Special:Version

  398. # [02:50] <fr0zenice> in case anyone wonders: comment buttons should show up automatically, but only in the main namespace, not others like WPD: etc.

  446. # [03:02] <Garbee> That you can probably extend to become an IDE if you tried hard enough.
  447. # [03:03] <Garbee> Oh I'm sure.
  448. # [03:03] * Garbee is a nano baby myself in a Linux terminal.
  449. # [03:03] <@Ryan_Lane> heh
  450. # [03:03] <Garbee> I have never gotten vi at all.
  451. # [03:03] <@Ryan_Lane> the default editor on the deployment system is nano :)
  452. # [03:03] <Garbee> I did try, but just learning how to use it was too much effort to make worht while.
  453. # [03:03] <@Ryan_Lane> I had it as vi for a while, but that's just mean to most people
  454. # [03:03] * Joins: skcin7 (~skcin7@c-68-38-156-213.hsd1.nj.comcast.net)
  455. # [03:04] <Garbee> ST has a vintage mode that works like vi in some areas.
  456. # [03:04] <Garbee> You may want to give that a go. ;)
  457. # [03:04] <@Ryan_Lane> heh
  458. # [03:04] <@Ryan_Lane> is it open source?
  459. # [03:04] <Garbee> Sadly no.
  460. # [03:04] <Garbee> $60 for license, but free trial with no real limits.
  461. # [03:04] <@Ryan_Lane> I'm kind of a purist, though I do use OS X
  462. # [03:04] <Garbee> It is cross-platform as well.

  464. # [03:04] * @Ryan_Lane nods
  465. # [03:05] <@Ryan_Lane> ah
  466. # [03:05] <@Ryan_Lane> neat
  467. # [03:05] <Garbee> Seriously, *try* it at least if you ever find the time. Vintage mode when coming from VI would be worth knowing about in advance.
  468. # [03:05] <@Ryan_Lane> heh
  469. # [03:05] <Garbee> I used it for weeks before buying just to get the feel for it.
  470. # [03:05] <fr0zenice> guess I'll need to take a look at ST soon
  471. # [03:05] <Garbee> I love that Jon really doesn't enforce any kind of limits on the trial.
  472. # [03:06] <@Ryan_Lane> my main problem is that the majority of the editing I do is on remote servers
  473. # [03:06] <@Ryan_Lane> I don't even run virtual machines on my laptop anymore

  487. # [03:09] <@Ryan_Lane> well, I've worked with him for a few years now ;)
  488. # [03:09] <Garbee> I have heard that story before.
  489. # [03:11] <Garbee> Btw, I need to know now. 1) Who's idea was an IRC webclient on the site itself? and 2) Who decided on how to impliment it?
  490. # [03:11] <Garbee> I'm just going to say it, that was a horrible try.
  491. # [03:11] <@Ryan_Lane> I think shepazu's idea
  492. # [03:11] <@Ryan_Lane> it's a good idea
  493. # [03:11] <Garbee> Good idea bad try.
  494. # [03:12] <@Ryan_Lane> we need to put some protections in front of it
  495. # [03:12] <Garbee> Blocking IP's in the connection is never a nice idea.
  496. # [03:12] <@Ryan_Lane> maybe tie it into the auth systems
  497. # [03:12] <@Ryan_Lane> you can ban individual users from the web interface
  498. # [03:12] <Garbee> Copy Freenode on that one, show the IP at the end of the connection. That way we can take care of abusers/trolls easily.
  499. # [03:12] <Garbee> w/o affecting all users like we currently are.
  500. # [03:12] <@Ryan_Lane> the ip hash is in the real name
  501. # [03:13] <Garbee> No hashing, that is the point.
  502. # [03:13] <@Ryan_Lane> it's configured according to freenode's suggestions
  503. # [03:13] <Garbee> It blocks us able to block.
  504. # [03:13] <Garbee> Really? I need to go find that suggestion now.
  505. # [03:13] <@Ryan_Lane> no, it still allows the block
  506. # [03:13] <@Ryan_Lane> you block the hash
  507. # [03:13] <@Ryan_Lane> which blocks the IP
  508. # [03:13] <Garbee> They get a new hash when they reconnect though.
  509. # [03:14] <@Ryan_Lane> no
  510. # [03:14] <Garbee> The kitten troll kep getting a new one.
  511. # [03:14] <@Ryan_Lane> it's a hash of their IP

  523. # [03:18] <@Ryan_Lane> true. it's nice to have it directly integrated, though

  525. # [03:18] <@Ryan_Lane> and if we integrate the auth, then we kill the trolls anyway
  526. # [03:19] <Garbee> oh, on the auth system. Someone had thought MediaWiki might just be misconfigured in some way. They had a link so a discussion on it too.
  527. # [03:19] <Garbee> Let me see if I can find it in my logs.
  528. # [03:19] <Garbee> In case you didn't catch that.
  529. # [03:19] <@Ryan_Lane> it's possible
  530. # [03:19] <@Ryan_Lane> though I don't really see how
  531. # [03:20] <Garbee> I also see the point to having it directly integrated on the site too. I think if we got things patched and I learned how it works then I will feel better about it.

  539. # [03:24] <Garbee> Looks like someone thinks it had something to do with the abuse filter... That was on the 8th though and is not in the conversation I'm thinking of.

  575. # [04:11] <@Ryan_Lane> using gerrit
  576. # [04:12] <Garbee> Couldn't you check the changelog for changes to files relating to user sessions on that? Might give some kind of an idea if there is a patch needed to fix SSO.
  577. # [04:12] <Garbee> I'm sure you could target the files somehow and get just their (or their folders) change history in between the current version and the one you are running the site on.

  604. # [04:22] <Garbee> Not sure how much it would help with SSO between Q2A though...

  610. # [04:27] <@Ryan_Lane> or rewrite the SSO system to not use mediawiki's memcache sessions
  611. # [04:27] <Garbee> I'm going to try and get an email out tomorrow with some suggestions on how we can get more eyes on the known issue lists and Q&A FAQ and all that while things are still in alpha.
  612. # [04:27] <Garbee> That way hopefully people will see them and not need to ask or report it yet again.
  613. # [04:28] <@Ryan_Lane> if someone fixes the openid extension for mediawiki to act as a provider, then we could use openid for sso

  620. # [04:29] <@Ryan_Lane> but I don't have time to do it
  621. # [04:29] <@Ryan_Lane> it needs to be fixed to remove that damn make file too
  622. # [04:30] <@Ryan_Lane> and it needs to be moved to gerrit, rather than wherever the hell it is right now
  623. # [04:30] <@Ryan_Lane> ah. it's still in SVN
  624. # [04:30] * @Ryan_Lane pukes
  625. # [04:31] <Garbee> I'm personally kinda getting peeved when people think that just because all these big companies are stewards things should just work from the start. I don't think they realize how constrained resources on the project actually are.
  626. # [04:31] <Garbee> Well, constrained for you guys.
  627. # [04:31] <@Ryan_Lane> yeah
  628. # [04:31] <Garbee> (and gals)
  629. # [04:31] <@Ryan_Lane> time was a massive constraint
  630. # [04:31] <Garbee> I can see.
  631. # [04:31] <@Ryan_Lane> soon enough we'll have things in the open
  632. # [04:31] <@Ryan_Lane> including the test/dev environment
  633. # [04:32] <@Ryan_Lane> so people can help fix things directly
  634. # [04:32] <Garbee> Yea, which brings up something for the meta room...
  635. # [04:32] <@Ryan_Lane> I added a project for it already in Wikimedia Labs: https://labsconsole.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Webplatform
  636. # [04:32] <@Ryan_Lane> it's empty right now, but we'll have a clone of the environment in there soon enough
  637. # [04:33] <@Ryan_Lane> Labs will be open registration soon as well, so that should make things easier
  638. # [04:33] <Garbee> Is there any way I could possibly get a copy of the skin code? I would like to try and help fix some of the theme issues if allowed, and don't really feel like replicating a plain HTML file and all to do it.
  639. # [04:34] <@Ryan_Lane> dunno
  640. # [04:34] <@Ryan_Lane> we should release that directly to wikimedia's gerrit server

  773. # [10:40] <asbjorn> Hello guys :-) Anyone awake?
  774. # [10:41] * HammHetfield raises hand
  775. # [10:42] <asbjorn> I've been looking at the http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Content/Topic_Hierarchy article and thinking about how I can make use of this structure... I mean, its good for documentation, but I feel that it needs a "entrance" sort of thing which is more wrapped around subject...?
  776. # [10:42] * Quits: darcyclarke (~darcyclar@108.162.149.34) (Quit: darcyclarke)
  777. # [10:43] <HammHetfield> asbjorn: like tutorials ?
  778. # [10:43] <asbjorn> I guess when I need to look up documentation like this it is either as a reference for what I'm already using (then the structure is fine), AND as a source of information about different options I have to solve my problem.
  779. # [10:44] <asbjorn> Well, if I'm looking for a way to store data locally - what is a natural approach to look up options for that?
  780. # [10:44] <HammHetfield> I suppose these would either go in tutorials (how to solve X, how to do Y) or in concepts (what is techniques Z and tools to do it)
  781. # [10:46] <asbjorn> Yeah, I'm not opposed to this structure, I'm just thinking there should be a more natural grouping of this content...?
  782. # [10:46] <HammHetfield> I don't understand why it's not natural to you
  783. # [10:47] <HammHetfield> concepts = techniques, patterns, all kind of concepts in general
  784. # [10:47] <HammHetfield> tutorials = how-to guide to doing something
  785. # [10:47] <HammHetfield> that's already 2 compatible ways to cover your questions about local storage
  786. # [10:47] <HammHetfield> plus all the doc about its APIs
  787. # [10:50] <asbjorn> well, from the first page, I'm not sure if I want a concept or a tutorial or perhaps Javascript which I guess is what I will be using. If I click any of these I would have to dig pretty deep to get to some actual information about what I should use to solve my problem...
  788. # [10:50] <HammHetfield> not necessarily
  789. # [10:51] <HammHetfield> if the pages link to each other, you should be able to find what you're looking for

  791. # [10:51] <asbjorn> no, and that is what I'm trying to address :-P
  792. # [10:51] <asbjorn> the not necessarily part...
  793. # [10:51] <HammHetfield> it would be difficult now because right now information is missing and everything
  794. # [10:52] <asbjorn> I'm just trying to think of a good way into the matter to solve the most common "use-cases" for the site...
  795. # [10:52] <HammHetfield> but if say doc about localStorage API contains a link to the tutotirla about how to use it and a link to the page explaining the idea of offline browsing, I don't think why that'd be difficult
  796. # [10:52] <HammHetfield> tutorial*
  797. # [10:53] <asbjorn> now, thats how it should be I think! but how do I get to the localStorage article in the first place... All I know is that I need to store some data locally - perhaps I don't even know that its an option to do so...
  798. # [10:54] <HammHetfield> I think you're thinking backward
  799. # [10:54] <HammHetfield> if you had this issue, you'd google it, get directly on one of the page that talk about it
  800. # [10:54] <HammHetfield> the concept (least likely), the tutorial or the doc
  801. # [10:54] <HammHetfield> or you'd use the search
  802. # [10:55] <HammHetfield> if you decide to go through the navigation without knowing the site's architecture, what you're looking for… you're on your own
  803. # [10:55] <asbjorn> both the google thing and the search expect that I know what I'm looking for... there is no guaratee that I'll hit anything I can use if I don't know that its called localStorage
  804. # [10:56] <HammHetfield> concepts -> programming -> offline browsing
  805. # [10:56] <asbjorn> Have a look at the "HTML5 FEATURES" grouping on http://www.html5rocks.com/en/
  806. # [10:56] <arkhi> asbjorn: If you don't know what you want, you can't really search for it, I guess.
  807. # [10:56] <asbjorn> arkhi: thats my point...
  808. # [10:57] <arkhi> Beside trusted network that knows a problem you don't face, or luck, I don't see how you would find the information.
  809. # [10:57] <asbjorn> but if you had some sort of subject grouping (see the link) then you could find this information

  815. # [11:01] <HammHetfield> I think he means the list of icons + text at the bottom
  816. # [11:02] <HammHetfield> which works because there's just a few topics
  817. # [11:02] <asbjorn> Nono, look at the "Features" think... Offline, Storage, File Access, etc.
  818. # [11:02] <HammHetfield> but if you put as many as there are on WPD...
  819. # [11:02] <asbjorn> HammHetfield: yeah, I get that, that is why its not an easy problem...
  820. # [11:03] <arkhi> I like the personas idea.
  821. # [11:03] <HammHetfield> asbjorn: I don't think it's an important problem

  826. # [11:03] <HammHetfield> other pages*
  827. # [11:03] <HammHetfield> if you can't find that, maybe you shouldn't be searching
  828. # [11:04] <asbjorn> HammHetfield: I disagree. I think it is important if the webplatform wants to be a broad source of information for lots of people...
  829. # [11:05] <HammHetfield> how about limiting to people that can use google and/or the Q&A ?
  830. # [11:05] <HammHetfield> "hey how's it called when stuff are stored in my browser instead of a DB ?"
  831. # [11:05] <FredFred> There's so many languages, protocols, and on and on. I see this as "setting the standard tools" operation
  832. # [11:05] <HammHetfield> get an answer with link -> there you go
  833. # [11:06] <HammHetfield> use google 'web platform make website work offline" -> link to the concept page
  834. # [11:06] <asbjorn> I think of myself as pretty experienced web dev, I know all about localStorage, indexedDB, cache manifest, the File API, canvas, etc. etc. and even I find can't really find docs in a good way...
  835. # [11:06] <HammHetfield> because the docs aren't there yet
  836. # [11:06] <HammHetfield> they're not linked to each other properly
  837. # [11:07] <FredFred> Used Google's web platform for workers to check in and out. Simple from what I expected
  838. # [11:07] <HammHetfield> right now all posts are dots with time the community should add more dots and connections between the dots
  839. # [11:08] <FredFred> mesh?
  840. # [11:09] <asbjorn> HammHetfield: thats true, but the whole "how to find" already if relevant to editors. Let's say I make a tutorial about drawing images on a canvas (which I'm actually doing), where do I link up the article so that people can navigate to it (from the top)

  842. # [11:10] <asbjorn> actually I think "from the top" approach is more relevant now then later, because later, as you say, all the dots will be connected... they are not now...
  843. # [11:10] <HammHetfield> first of all you don't have to do it yourself
  844. # [11:10] <asbjorn> and people will use http://webplatform.org as an entrance to see what is there now...
  845. # [11:11] <HammHetfield> so maybe you should let it go for now, focus on your article and the community will add links to your article where it sees fit, add stuff, etc etc
  846. # [11:11] <HammHetfield> so you shouldn't really be worried about that, especially now
  847. # [11:11] <HammHetfield> second of all, you could a link like "Further reading" in the canvas docs pages
  848. # [11:11] <FredFred> Does the article belong @ the top? (not trying to nag rather point out how complex this can get.
  849. # [11:11] <asbjorn> I guess that is what I'll end up doing... But I'm also part of the communit and are looking for a natural way to reach the content I want...

  852. # [11:14] <FredFred> So is the web platform void of python, perl, and on and on? I actually think it'd be a good thing even though I'm most familiar with python.
  853. # [11:16] <asbjorn> FredFred: webplatform is for web technologies like javascript, css and html... not for backend programming languages...
  854. # [11:17] <FredFred> That is an impressive goal. I was kind of wondering what SVG was doing in there but it makes more sense now.

  1194. # [19:35] <Garbee> Does anyone else think that the Sublime Text plug on the beginners page should be removed? Ref: http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/beginners under Before You Start, point 2.
  1195. # [19:35] <fr0zenice> yeah, should be a link to the dev tools
  1196. # [19:35] <Garbee> We are going to give paid tools like that which are trusted and many devs use on the Dev Tools page. I think things mentioned there should be free.
  1197. # [19:36] <Damianz> Considering it doesn't mention geany or other decent, lightweight, free editors probably should go away
  1198. # [19:36] <Garbee> Well, I don't want a direct link to Dev Tools in that place since 1) It isn't done yet, 2) They shouldn't need to go through that list to get that info.
  1199. # [19:36] <Damianz> Still <3 Sublime for anything not in vim
  1200. # [19:36] <Garbee> Oh, I love ST too. I just think a plug in that place is improper.
  1201. # [19:36] <Garbee> Nice to see others agree. ;) So I'm taking care of it.
  1202. # [19:37] <Garbee> Plus in that context it also makes it sound like ST is free, which it certainly is not.
  1203. # [19:37] <Damianz> If it's a plug then there should also be a plug for textmate because it was awesome and is now opensource for osx :D </just saying>
  1204. # [19:37] <Garbee> Exactly. Plugging that one there opens up a can of worms that shouldn't be.
  1205. # [19:38] <eighty4> Shouldn't things like eclipse in ther eas well?
  1206. # [19:38] <eighty4> emacs, vi?
  1207. # [19:38] <Garbee> eighty4, They will be covered in the Dev Tools section.
  1208. # [19:39] <Garbee> I think eclipse, emacs, and vi are a little too much for beginners. But they are great to plug in Dev Tools.
  1209. # [19:39] <Garbee> Thanks for bringing it up. /me facepalms for forgetting to add an IDE section to Dev Tools.
  1210. # [19:41] <Damianz> vim is an awesome tool and should be learnt as it's syntax is used accross a bunch of linux tools such as the less pager :D
  1211. # [19:41] <Garbee> Well, that is great *if* you use Linux.
  1212. # [19:41] <Garbee> Not all devs do.
  1213. # [19:42] <Garbee> We aren't going into that much detail on them though. Just quick plugs.

  1215. # [19:42] * Damianz wonders how you could ever develop on windows urrgh
  1216. # [19:42] <Francisc> Windows is awesome.
  1217. # [19:43] <Garbee> The only thing we are going into detail on are the Browser's tools (and Firebug and plugins for Opera (dragonfly iirc)). That way we can teach people how to use built in tools and a few major plugins to actually test their pages.

  1219. # [19:43] <Garbee> Other plugins that are trusted and get used *for web dev* can get a plug too, but not any in-detail guides without some discussion first I think.
  1220. # [19:44] <Damianz> Chrome inspector > Firebug every time (once you figure it out)
  1221. # [19:44] <eighty4> Damianz: os x?
  1222. # [19:45] <Garbee> Yea, I prefer Chrome's Dev Tools myself. Originally I like FF and Firebug, but once I learned how much easier Chrome Dev Tools are I just got frustrated with Firebug.
  1223. # [19:45] <Damianz> I don't personally like osx, I do have it on my laptop as I've not re-installed it yet at the moment though. It's hard to get tools on as packages suck, much like windows.

  1357. # [21:25] <lampe2> i was thinking that maybe it would be good to seperate the css files into layout.css and style.css. so that one file got the where the div or element should be and which size and so on and the other file should contain the color the shadow text style etc
  1358. # [21:25] <lampe2> has someone tryed that ?
  1359. # [21:26] <DONVODKI> interesting
  1360. # [21:26] <DONVODKI> but... whats the point
  1361. # [21:27] <fr0zenice> theming, I guess
  1362. # [21:27] <Michistar> I could see it being useful, if you wanted to easily change the "look" w/out changing the structure
  1363. # [21:27] <Garbee> Sounds like OO CSS just splitting into a few files.
  1364. # [21:27] <Michistar> but i've never tried it
  1365. # [21:27] <lampe2> first themeing ! and to not write everything in one big file
  1366. # [21:27] <Garbee> I have seen that kind of setup actually in some themes for LemonStand that are done by the company that made it. They have color sheets that you use to change color schemes.

  1387. # [21:32] <Garbee> How do you solve that without server-side checking of the device?
  1388. # [21:32] <lampe3> so there would be a file layout_mobile.css and you could keep the style.css

  1413. # [21:35] <lampe2> but i like this kind of tech stuff :)
  1414. # [21:35] <@Garbee> It has to be server-side though.
  1415. # [21:36] <@Garbee> Which is where the accuracy problem comes in.
  1416. # [21:36] <DONVODKI> ahh
  1417. # [21:36] <@Garbee> Unless perhaps we add some info to an HTTP request header.
  1418. # [21:36] <DONVODKI> media query helps a lot
  1419. # [21:36] <@Garbee> DONVODKI, client side yes. Not really the issue here.
  1420. # [21:36] <lampe2> DONVODKI, media query are client side
  1421. # [21:36] <@Garbee> We don't ever want the extra data getting to the client.

  1425. # [21:37] <lampe2> i think a smart ajax call could be a good start
  1426. # [21:37] <@Garbee> Basically we would need something added to the HTTP request header that tells the server supported device resolutions, then the server could use that info to send the proper stylesheet.
  1427. # [21:37] <DONVODKI> have you seen the tumblr theming code?
  1428. # [21:37] <@Garbee> ajax could work.
  1429. # [21:37] <DONVODKI> really?
  1430. # [21:37] <@Garbee> Then that would also not add headers.
  1431. # [21:38] <@Garbee> Well, add header info.
  1432. # [21:38] <lampe2> yeah http header could be a solution too
  1433. # [21:38] <@Garbee> Header would be a long-term super awesome one.
  1434. # [21:39] <@Garbee> No extra coding client-side needed.
  1435. # [21:39] <@Garbee> Transparent in all respects to the client.
  1436. # [21:39] <DONVODKI> interesting
  1437. # [21:39] <lampe2> yes and i think its smarter as media query
  1438. # [21:40] <@Garbee> DONVODKI, Just in case you haven't gotten it yet. Media Queries send *all* the data down to the client, then the client choses which rules to apply based on the query. We don't want any extra information going to the client.
  1439. # [21:40] <@Garbee> We want to target it server-side and send the exact informatoin needed.
  1440. # [21:40] <@Garbee> It reduces bandwidth usage on both ends and cycles on the clients end.
  1441. # [21:40] <DONVODKI> i got you Garbee, thanks for explanation
  1442. # [21:41] <@Garbee> Sorry it took a bit, was busy actually doing some thinking.
  1443. # [21:41] <DONVODKI> hehe
  1444. # [21:41] <@Garbee> I think an extra header addition would be the way to go personally. Would also be pretty easy to target in any given language.
  1445. # [21:41] <DONVODKI> im doing a sketch for my new website...
  1446. # [21:41] <lampe2> hmm maybe in the http header field Content-Type
  1447. # [21:42] <@Garbee> I think the problem is getting browser vendors to do that kind of stuff.
  1448. # [21:42] <@Garbee> Ok, that went offtopic too much.

  1467. # [21:49] <@Garbee> uh-huh.
  1468. # [21:49] <@Garbee> Also it is faster to do it transparently server-side. That way the client never has to do anything.
  1469. # [21:50] <@Garbee> Except interpret the exact code.
  1470. # [21:50] <@Garbee> Overall, adding a header to HTTP with screen size would be ideal.

  1472. # [21:50] <@Garbee> I need to get that right.

  1477. # [21:53] <lampe2> yes this is the problem Garbee
  1478. # [21:53] <Damianz> can't css3 handle multiple sizes of stuff and just get delt with in the rendering on the client?
