Diamanda SVN Changes

14 July 2008 Comments

I'm changing Diamanda in SVN so it won't work perfectly. I'm simplifying things and removing unneeded stuff (like CAPTCHA for add post/topic). I'm also considering changing the way wiki works (or making a clone of it and applying the modifications) – instead of current page – archive I'm thinking about something like: current page – task manager. User can add pages and modify existing ones. Modifications and submissions would be tasks. Site managers could compare changes and approve or discard the task. It's not a typical wiki but for small / medium projects, which don't have time to fight with spam could be useful. Also there would be more integrations between Pages and Tasks – there could be tasks assigned to pages etc.

Diamanda 2008-TEST-1.1 released

I've released a new version of Diamanda Application Set - 2008-TEST-1.1. It's a small update against 1.0 stable release. Most changes affected layout (new look, fixes in templates, CSS and JS files), but also more generic use of forum topics as comments systems. Also password change has been fixed to work with Django 1.0.*.

Content module in Diamanda 2008

The "Content" module in Diamanda is now under heavy development. Things I want to add are (comments, ideas are welcomed):

For the main page - "what's new?" box displaying a list of new and edited content/post/other entries (similar to Confluence "Recently Updated")
Boxcomments are out, content comments are a special forum topic per content entry (created at the first comment, ability to set forum for comment topics for every content entry and it children)
Default syntax is Markdown + CBC, however you can add HTML + CBC entries via the admin panel, or you can replace markdown with other markup library (user add/edit interface only for non-HTML type)
Attachment management - upload images, files and then insert in content (manages files from all SITE_IDs)
Edit proposals, new content proposals - normal user can edit or add content, however it has to be approved to go public (diff changes etc.)
More CBC (ContentBBCode) - create some useful CBC tags for tables, charts etc.

Better look (user interface)
Using only BBCode markup, combined with MarkitUp jQuery editor
Support for solving and unsolving topics by topic authors, moderators or staff
Simple system for marking new topics and post since last visit
Option to set moderators for each forum
Option to set topics prefixes for each forum, and filtering topics in forum by selected prefixes

Diamanda project changes

Until now "Diamanda" was a wiki Django application released with MyghtyBoard Forum and some other mini applications. As of today my sites use newer version of those applications. There is no wiki application – instead there is plain "Articles" type application. Other applications – MyghtyBoard, Task Manager, UserPanel, BoxComments, News and other have been improved and/or written from scratch. In the next days, week I'll release the code as a new Diamanda release – "Diamanda – Django applications set".
