Javascript: 101

Blog list

Edoardo Batini on Sat, 2011-01-29 18:16

Hi all,
I created a static page containing all the Blog I could find of people in this course.
I plan to put on an RSS aggregator server so we can follow all the new posts with only an rss channel.

If yours is not in the list, please reply to this thread; an http address is enough.

Happy javascripting

Thanks Edoardo,

I noticed you too put it up on AppSpot. Are you using Java or Python?

All the Javascript posts on my blog are at http://opencs.posterous.com/tag/javascript

Thanks for putting this up.

Hi Parag,
first of all thanks for your efforts to build this course.

I'm using Python but that blog uses the 'bad code' I wrote the first time I tried to learn more on GAE. Bad but it works ;)

I was thinking to something like PlanetPlanet tu create an rss channel, what do you think?

Hi Edoardo,

I too have some really bad code backing the website I made. I am in the process of improving it using Wicket (a Java web framework). Hopefully the I will be able to deploy the improved code before the course ends :-)

I had an idea while looking at your website. Last year I had attended an online course which also used blog posts the way we do. They recommended all users to put a special text #plenk2010 in their blog posts, I think they had an RSS reader process which would fetch the RSS feeds of all registered blogs and pull posts which had that special text. This way they identified the posts as belonging to that course.

I am thinking if we have a convention for such special text, we could also identify blog posts per week of the course. Perhaps we could use texts such as #javascript101-week1, etc.

Do you think this would be a good idea, or would it be difficult to request everyone to add such a text.

I do know of one library (Rome) which exists in Java to parse blog posts.

Parag

Hi Parag, the aggregator site is up http://javascript101.pimpo.org/ ; it uses this software: https://github.com/rubys/venus. I had no time to check if the blog posts can be filtered by tag, but i'm sure it's possible. On the other hand the majority of the blogs have been created ex-novo for the course leaving the "noise" to a low level. Let's see how it works this way...

+1 to this. maybe we can open source the aggregator or something and configure it to filter certain types of posts? I know I would cause a lot of noise :D

Hi Edoardo,

We may be able to filter the blog posts based on some text in the post itself (eg: #Javascript101)

Check out this document https://github.com/rubys/venus/blob/master/docs/filters.html

We should be able to setup a xpath or regex filter to filter posts.

Do you think we can do this?

Parag Shah

Mon, 2011-01-31 12:01

Thanks. How about #javascript101 (case insensitive) in the body of the blog post.

I will announce it to the group. After that let's wait for a few days, to give everyone a chance to read their mails and make sure they use the text in their blog post.

Good point, how about
#p2puJan2011-javascript101

I am just a bit concerned about someone trying to type this by hand and doing a typo. But that's fine, we can suggest everyone to prefer copy pasting the string rather than typing it.

Thats good enough for me. But I agree on your other concern, there might be typos. Copy pasting would be way safer.

I added a filter to the aggregator. I couldn't use alone the 'string' Parag suggested as many previous posts would have been filtered out and I think we cannot ask everybody to edit their old posts.

The aggregator accept a post if it contains:
[jJ]ava[sS]cript which is
Javascript
Javascript
javaScript
etc.

[pP]2[pP][uU]
P2PU
p2pu
etc.

and literally:
#p2pu-Jan2011-javascript101

Everybody should use the latter from now on.

I hope everything works as it should. Suggestions/Comments are welcome.

I embedded code snippets in jsfiddle on my blog. Obviously, they didn't make into the feed. So, it looks like I left all the answers blank. Lol. I just updated my blog to also include clickable links to jsfiddle, for anyone that's using the rss feed.
