| aquarius | I'm playing with the ContentHub stuff, as per the new documentation. The examples in the pages don't work for me; is there guidance somewhere on what I need installed on the desktop to test this stuff? (I've installed the ubuntu-content qml plugin, obvs) | 09:06 |
| aquarius | this might be a t1mp question? | 09:18 |
| dpm | morning aquarius, perhaps kenvandine might know too. He was writing the content hub a while ago, although I haven't been talking to him about it for a while | 09:23 |
| aquarius | k. will talk to kenvandine when he wakes up :) | 09:24 |
| aquarius | the examples are not great :( ignoring that they don't work (which might be a setup problem), the main example has two buttons but doesn't put them in a column, so they both appear on top of one another... | 09:24 |
| dpm | hi kalikiana, could you give me a hand with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1233071 ? From Chris Wayne's comment, it seems that translations are not being loaded from click packages, although it might have to do with the SDK package including the fix hasn't landed in the trusty images yet? He says he tested image 15 | 09:24 |

| * aquarius reports bugs about the contenthub examples not working. | 10:02 | |
| popey | aquarius: am i remembering correctly that for Riddling you wanted a listview with a button at some point? | 10:14 |
| aquarius | popey, not for Riddling. I did file a bug about wanting to be able to disable a listitem and thus disable the button therein, which was for a patch I wrote for Friends, but that was about six months ago | 10:15 |
| franxesk | hi everyone :) | 10:21 |
| franxesk | i'm trying to include a listview and a button on a dialog using qml | 10:23 |
| franxesk | but i don't know how to set the dialog's dimensions in order to put everything on the right position | 10:23 |
| franxesk | does anyone know how to do it? I would really appreciate any help with this | 10:24 |
| aquarius | franxesk, can you explain in a little more detail? | 10:25 |
| dpm | franxesk, do you have any code that you can share? If you put it in a pastebin perhaps people will have it easier to help you | 10:25 |
| franxesk | aquarius, dpm: sure | 10:26 |
| franxesk | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6381315/ | 10:29 |
| franxesk | i'm working on a new feature for the gallery app that detects duplicated media | 10:30 |
| franxesk | i'm using the listview to print a list of absolute paths and the button will just close the dialog | 10:32 |
| aquarius | franxesk, and how do you want it to look? | 10:33 |
| franxesk | aquarius: something like this http://picpaste.com/example-q7gSepjJ.png would be nice | 10:36 |
| franxesk | aquarius: but instead of the image, it would be the listview with the absolute paths | 10:36 |
| franxesk | aquarius: and just one button | 10:36 |
| aquarius | franxesk, I'd set an explicit height on the listview, if it were me | 10:42 |
| aquarius | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6381350/ or similar | 10:42 |
| aquarius | what would be nice is if you could add a scrollbar to the listview, but doing that screws up the dialog when I try it, which feels a lot like a bug. It might be worth asking bzoltan and the sdk team how to add a scrollbar to that listview (if you just use a scrollbar widget, the dialog layout thing gets very confused) | 10:43 |
| franxesk | aquarius: i'll ask them about this then, thx :) | 10:48 |
| franxesk | aquarius: i think i've updated the code correctly, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6381373/ | 10:51 |
| franxesk | aquarius: but it doesn't look like the dialog has the correct dimensions right? - http://picpaste.com/duplicatesPaths-PlhcVP3p.png | 10:52 |
| aquarius | hrm. I don't think you can set the dimensions of a dialog; it sizes itself depending on the content | 10:53 |
| aquarius | so this is an SDK team question: "how do I know how big to make the listview in my dialog?" | 10:53 |
| aquarius | bzoltan, ping about the above ;) | 10:53 |
| franxesk | aquarius: :O, I didn't know that | 10:53 |
| aquarius | I might be wrong. Dialogs are quite magic, which is great when it works but when the magic breaks down it's hard to know how to fix it. Saviq or t1mp will know how to do it :) | 10:54 |
| nik90 | aquarius: couldn't you use parent.height for the listview? | 11:09 |
| aquarius | nik90, you don't want the listview to be the height of its parent: you want it to be the height of its parent minus the height of the header minus the height of the button minus some spacing | 11:15 |
| aquarius | and you don't know how high the header is, because it's not a separately addressable component. | 11:15 |
| nik90 | true | 11:16 |
| bzoltan | aquarius: I am here | 11:40 |
| aquarius | bzoltan, so, you may want to address two questions: franxesk_'s question about how to put a listview in a dialog, and then mine about how the contenthub qml documentation doesn't work for me and I don't know why :) | 11:41 |
| zsombi | (12:53:43 PM) aquarius: so this is an SDK team question: "how do I know how big to make the listview in my dialog?" | 11:45 |
| aquarius | zsombi, yep. If I add buttons to a Dialog, the Dialog calculates the right size for itself without assistance. If I want a ListView in my dialog, how do I know what to set its height to? | 11:46 |
| zsombi | aquarius: you don't really know that. you can calculate some size if you consider the size of the screen, extracting the header + buttons, but the Dialog doesn't really provide such an info | 11:46 |
| aquarius | zsombi, yeah, that's what I said to franxesk_. Dialogs calculate things themselves by magic, but when the magic breaks down you can't fix it ;) | 11:47 |
| zsombi | aquarius: usually a 4-5 lines ListView can go in, but you need to consider the Landscape/Portrait modes also :( | 11:47 |
| aquarius | which is why I suggested just picking a height and hardcoding it | 11:47 |
| aquarius | but franxesk_ didn't sem to like that: "[10:52:34] <franxesk> aquarius: but it doesn't look like the dialog has the correct dimensions right? - http://picpaste.com/duplicatesPaths-PlhcVP3p.png" | 11:47 |
| zsombi | aquarius: for now yes, till we come up with a fix for that, therefore would be good if you would file a wish item to UITK | 11:48 |
| zsombi | woooo | 11:48 |
| aquarius | zsombi, ok. (This is not my bug, it's franxesk_'s, so I'll leave him to file it.) What *I* want to know about is the contenthub, because I can't get the examples from the documentation to work ;) | 11:49 |
| zsombi | aquarius: contenthub? | 11:49 |
| aquarius | zsombi, the thing for passing files between apps -- so an app can say "give me some images" and the gallery provides them | 11:49 |
| aquarius | this is how, for example, an ebook that I have in Ubuntu One will make it into my ebook reader... by opening U1 in the web browser and using the content hub to pass the downloaded ebook to the ebook reader | 11:50 |
| franxesk_ | zsombi, aquarius: i'm sorry but what is UITK? | 11:51 |
| zsombi | huhh, ISP hickup, got back.. | 11:52 |
| zsombi | franxesk_: Ubuntu UI Toolkit :) | 11:52 |
| zsombi | franxesk_: file the bug to ubuntu-ui-toolkit | 11:52 |
| zsombi | aquarius: would that contenthub be some kind of content-picker thing? | 11:53 |
| franxesk_ | zsombi: on my way, thx! :) | 11:53 |
| aquarius | zsombi, yep -- the content picker is exactly what it is | 11:53 |
| nik90 | aquarius: I talked to kenvandine yesterday about the contenthub. His code examples are available at https://code.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-importer and https://code.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-exporter | 11:53 |
| aquarius | nik90, ooh, that sounds useful | 11:54 |
| zsombi | aquarius: ah, different terminology :) | 11:54 |
| nik90 | aquarius: I made a sample app which imports pictures from the gallery app. | 11:54 |
| nik90 | I am trying to now figure out how to import from other 3rd party apps | 11:54 |
| nik90 | I wish ken was online now..have some questions to ask | 11:54 |
| zsombi | aquarius: we don't have it yet in SDK... | 11:55 |
| aquarius | zsombi, aha, we do! http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-1.0/Ubuntu.Content/ | 11:55 |
| aquarius | but only for the last couple of days :) | 11:55 |
| nik90 | aquarius: you can try my sample app at https://code.launchpad.net/~nik90/+junk/contenthub-importer | 11:56 |
| zsombi | aquarius: huhh??? when was it added?? | 11:56 |
| nik90 | aquarius: using qtcreator you can install it as a click package on the phone | 11:56 |
| davmor2 | aquarius: do you have an additional clue for number 4 it's frying my head now | 11:56 |
| nik90 | zsombi: I think yesterday | 11:56 |
| aquarius | nik90, I've just tried ken's importer onthe desktop and it throws errors :( | 11:57 |
| aquarius | davmor2, which one's number 4? | 11:57 |
| zsombi | nik90: no wonder I haven't heard about it then... but seams it is in a separate package then | 11:57 |
| nik90 | aquarius: it doesnt work on the desktop | 11:57 |
| nik90 | zsombi: yup | 11:57 |
| davmor2 | aquarius: a boy | 11:57 |
| aquarius | nik90, what? why doesn't it? :( | 11:57 |
| aquarius | davmor2, heh. Your clue is: magpies | 11:57 |
| nik90 | aquarius: no idea. I had to install it as a click package on the phone to try it | 11:57 |
| davmor2 | aquarius: thanks | 11:57 |
| nik90 | aquarius: qtcreator -> Build -> Ubuntu Touch -> Install aplication on device | 11:58 |
| aquarius | nik90, hmph. It should work on the desktop. I'll ask ken about it. | 11:58 |
| aquarius | I know how to test on the phone, but for something like this I shouldn't have to :) | 11:58 |
| nik90 | aquarius: definitely. it would make testing a bit more easier | 11:58 |
| nik90 | zsombi: ken was going to request it to be merged into the sdk. | 11:58 |

| gatox | aquarius, i just asked mandel | 13:48 |
| aquarius | ah cool. mandel_ ping :) | 13:48 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, I have been summoned by you ;) | 13:49 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, although I prefer when they say my name 3 times | 13:49 |
| aquarius | you have :) the downloader daemon -- can I use it from my QML apps? | 13:49 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, how is it going? | 13:49 |
| aquarius | mandel_, actually, things are going pretty well, which is nice :) | 13:50 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, ok, so that is work that was delayed due to quality and I need to design a nice QML API | 13:50 |
| aquarius | ah, OK, so the answer is "no, not yet". cool | 13:50 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, I wanted to have a UDS session to talk about it and start a conversation about it in the mainling list | 13:50 |
| aquarius | I shall not write my little app that requires it, then ;) | 13:50 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, yes, sorry.. but you can look at the following: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DownloadService | 13:51 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, but if you wait a little I'll have cpp bindings and the QML ones | 13:51 |
| mandel_ | but I have to go through a process to request the addition to the sdk etc.. | 13:51 |
| aquarius | right. Once it's accessible from QML I shall write my app :) | 13:51 |
| gatox | mandel_, aquarius there is a qml plugin that uses the download manager....... but is not part of the sdk yet | 13:52 |
| aquarius | gatox, orly? can I get this plugin from somewhere? | 13:52 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, gatox it is going to be the base of the real sdk, but things will change | 13:52 |
| aquarius | ah ok | 13:52 |
| aquarius | I'm happy to wait until it's available for real | 13:53 |
| aquarius | I'd rather do things properly | 13:53 |
| gatox | aquarius, yes, that's better, this has some app specific bits of code | 13:53 |
| aquarius | I need to be able to download and save things -- specifically, mp3s, for a Bad Voltage app | 13:53 |
| aquarius | but I'll write the app once downloading becomes part of the SDK :) | 13:53 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, ok, I'll ping you asap with that | 13:55 |
| aquarius | mandel_, cool. No rush; I have loads of ideas for apps :) | 13:56 |
| mandel_ | aquarius, it will also be nice to show you the api before is done so that you can complain about my design api skills ;) | 13:56 |

| aquarius | seb128, what's not working about it? ItemSelector is undocumented... | 15:05 |
| seb128 | aquarius, with the saucy toolkit I've a list of items, with current trusty it's buggy because of the api incompat changes, with daily build ppa (where the api got fixed) the list is empty | 15:06 |
| aquarius | ouch. I don't know about that, sorry :( | 15:07 |
| seb128 | aquarius, no worry, that was rather a question for the SDK team, they had fun recently it seems... | 15:08 |
| seb128 | aquarius, for the record that makes the "pick a ringtone "page of system settings be empty | 15:08 |
| aquarius | fair | 15:08 |
| aquarius | mhall119, ListItem.ItemSelector seems to be undocumented on the SDK site? ListItem.ValueSelector says in big shrieky text that it is deprecated and you ought to use ItemSelector, but ItemSelector doesn't exist according to the docs? | 15:09 |
| davmor2 | szymon_w: And there you go answered, this is the best place to ask anything Application Development wise, as people using the tools are here :) | 15:09 |

| szymon_w | davmor2, thanks bro ;) | 15:10 |
| aquarius | seb128, ah, that's the *old* site you're looking at :) | 15:10 |
| aquarius | seb128, the root of http://developer.ubuntu.com/ now links properly through to the up-to-date api docs. | 15:11 |
| seb128 | aquarius, uptodate but missing OptionSelector and ListItem.ItemSelector :p | 15:11 |
| seb128 | oh | 15:12 |
| seb128 | aquarius, http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-1.0/Components.Components.ListItems.ItemSelector/ | 15:12 |
| aquarius | seb128, OptionSelector is, rather randomly, under "Components.Components" | 15:12 |
| aquarius | http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/qml/sdk-1.0/Components.Components/ | 15:12 |
| aquarius | ha! | 15:12 |
| seb128 | aquarius, same for ItemSelector | 15:12 |
| aquarius | aaah, so it is | 15:12 |
| aquarius | mhall119, are those things *supposed* to be in a separate "Components.Components" section, or is that build weirdness? | 15:13 |
| mhall119 | aquarius: I'm not entirely sure, but that's how the generated docs have them | 15:13 |
| aquarius | mhall119, hrm. I wonder why? It seems to me that ItemSelector ought to be under Ubuntu.Components.ListItems rather than Components.Components.ListItems. I wonder if someone mistagged the qdoc? | 15:14 |
| mhall119 | and their examples have "import Components.Components 0.1" | 15:14 |
| aquarius | oh! so they really are different? that's nuts. Why are they? :-) | 15:14 |
| aquarius | sounds like a bzoltan question. | 15:14 |
| mhall119 | don't ask me, ask bzoltan and team | 15:14 |
| aquarius | I was asking bzoltan :) | 15:14 |
| * mhall119 is not actually bzoltan | 15:15 | |

| seb128 | aquarius, that might be resolved by http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/trunk/revision/796 which is what changed api in an incompatible way and is being fixed | 15:18 |

| kenvandine | it uses upstart-app-launch to switch to the app by APP_ID | 16:26 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, so if you have some pointers as to what I need to install or configure to make it work, that'd be cool, and then I can play with it and give some feedback on the docs etc | 16:26 |
| kenvandine | do you have gallery-app installed? | 16:26 |
| aquarius | nope | 16:27 |
| aquarius | I can install it :) | 16:27 |
| kenvandine | ok, that is what it is trying to open | 16:27 |
| aquarius | installing it | 16:27 |
| kenvandine | those dialog messages must come from ContentImportHint | 16:27 |
| aquarius | surely it should say "couldn't find any providers", though, rather than just, like, exploding :) | 16:28 |
| kenvandine | aquarius, please file a bug | 16:28 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, will do | 16:28 |
| kenvandine | i guess it should fail the transfer request and provide the error condition | 16:28 |
| kenvandine | thx | 16:28 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, ok, am now trying your simple import example | 16:29 |
| aquarius | file:///home/aquarius/Scratch/contenthub.qml:48: TypeError: Cannot read property 'state' of undefined | 16:29 |
| aquarius | file:///home/aquarius/Scratch/contenthub.qml:80: Unable to assign [undefined] to QObject* | 16:29 |
| aquarius | (on startup) | 16:29 |
| kenvandine | those are fine | 16:29 |
| aquarius | ok | 16:29 |
| kenvandine | they get set later | 16:29 |
| kenvandine | also, set APP_ID | 16:29 |
| aquarius | I then click "import from default"... and then nothing seems to happen. | 16:29 |
| kenvandine | APP_ID=foobar qmlscene ... | 16:30 |
| aquarius | ah! | 16:30 |
| kenvandine | well, i think it would still fire gallery-app | 16:30 |
| aquarius | ok | 16:30 |
| aquarius | now when I say "Import from default"...nothing happens :( | 16:31 |
| kenvandine | killall content-hub-service | 16:31 |
| kenvandine | and run it in a terminal | 16:31 |
| kenvandine | see if it outputs any useful info | 16:31 |
| aquarius | aha! | 16:32 |
| aquarius | I have to have run gallery-app at least once, it seems | 16:33 |
| kenvandine | bugger | 16:33 |
| kenvandine | not my fault though :) | 16:33 |
| aquarius | that also answers another question I had, though, which is: how does my app register itself as a source for, say, pictures? | 16:33 |
| kenvandine | a click hook | 16:33 |
| aquarius | if that registration is in QML, then I have to have *run* the app at least once for it to register | 16:33 |
| kenvandine | you include a little json file that gets used by a click hook | 16:33 |
| aquarius | ah, cool. Is that little json file documented anywhere? :) | 16:34 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: but in the json file you just mention content_hub | 16:34 |
| kenvandine | look at lp:~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-exporter and lp:~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-importer | 16:34 |
| nik90 | you dont mention it as importer or exporter | 16:34 |
| kenvandine | source or destination | 16:34 |
| nik90 | so how would it know that it is a source for something? | 16:34 |
| kenvandine | source in this case is gallery-app | 16:34 |
| kenvandine | source is the app that provides the content | 16:35 |
| kenvandine | destination is an app that knows how to use the content | 16:35 |
| kenvandine | or might import iut | 16:35 |
| kenvandine | it | 16:35 |
| kenvandine | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-exporter/view/head:/content-hub/hub-exporter.json | 16:35 |
| aquarius | oh, so being in the policy group "content_exchange_source" declares that I'm a source? | 16:35 |
| aquarius | that doesn't declare what I am a source *for*, though. | 16:36 |
| kenvandine | just for app confinement | 16:36 |
| aquarius | how do I say that I'm a source for pictures? | 16:36 |
| kenvandine | ^^ | 16:36 |
| aquarius | I know the QML does that, but the QML code isn't processed until the app is first run | 16:36 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: ah so in the json file, you mention source -> pictures or whatever so that when it is installed it is recognised as a source for content | 16:37 |
| kenvandine | yes | 16:37 |
| kenvandine | the click hook registers it with the hub | 16:37 |
| kenvandine | as a source | 16:37 |
| nik90 | nice | 16:37 |
| aquarius | oh, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-exporter/view/head:/content-hub/hub-exporter.json right | 16:37 |
| aquarius | what's the naming scheme for that file so that the hook picks it up? | 16:37 |
| kenvandine | doesn't matter | 16:38 |
| kenvandine | you define that in your manifest | 16:38 |
| kenvandine | with the click hook | 16:38 |
| kenvandine | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+junk/hub-exporter/view/head:/manifest.json | 16:38 |
| aquarius | ah, I put hooks: { content-hub: somefile.json } in my manifest. Got it. | 16:38 |
| kenvandine | yup | 16:38 |
| kenvandine | and there is a function to get a list of peers | 16:39 |
| nik90 | knownSourcesForType(ContentType) | 16:39 |
| kenvandine | knownPeersForType(ContentType.Pictures) | 16:39 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, and that's the only way that I can be a source? Or can I declare that I'm a source at runtime? | 16:39 |
| kenvandine | something like that | 16:39 |
| kenvandine | only way | 16:39 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: I tried that..and had some issues with it. That's what I wanted to talk to you about | 16:39 |
| kenvandine | nik90, oh? | 16:39 |
| nik90 | when you get some time would mind checking my code at https://code.launchpad.net/~nik90/+junk/contenthub-importer | 16:40 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: not now | 16:40 |
| kenvandine | it sets them in gsettings | 16:40 |
| aquarius | ah, so making this work on the desktop would be hard because desktop apps don't get installed via click, so I'd have to manually do what the click hook does | 16:40 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: I will clean the code and let u know | 16:40 |
| aquarius | kenvandine, but that gives me a bunch of info and things work now, so thank you :) | 16:40 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: as of now, the app allows single/multiple selection from the default content store | 16:40 |
| kenvandine | the importer doesn't have to register though | 16:40 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: but I am unable to retrieve a 3rd party store | 16:40 |
| kenvandine | only if it wants an app that can export data to be able to find it as an available destination | 16:41 |
| aquarius | right; I can *retrieve* data from sources, that's cool | 16:41 |
| aquarius | but I can't *be* a source without registration. | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | so you can request content from other apps without needing the hook | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | right | 16:41 |
| aquarius | I'm thinking of this for Beru -- how to get ebooks into it from the browser | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | and you can't be a destination that other sources can find without a hook | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | right | 16:41 |
| aquarius | so the browser would be an exporter and Beru would be a destination. | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | so in that case, you download the ebook | 16:41 |
| kenvandine | and the webbrowser-app would be able to find Beru as a destination that can handle ebooks | 16:42 |
| nik90 | aquarius: so then beru would be one source for documents | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | if Beru registers as a destination | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | not source in this case | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | destination | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | webbrowser-app would be the source | 16:42 |
| aquarius | I am assuming, although I don't think it's done yet, that when you download a URL in the browser it will download the file and then look for sources to send it to | 16:42 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: cant we use the download manager to download the ebooks from beru (when it lands)? | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | because it would own the content that was downloaded | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | sure | 16:42 |
| aquarius | look for DESINATIONS to send it to, I mean | 16:42 |
| kenvandine | aquarius, right | 16:43 |
| aquarius | nik90, yes, the download manager could be used by Beru, but in my opinion Beru should not need to grow the ability to randomly browse the web to find ebooks | 16:43 |
| kenvandine | or the download manager might fill that need | 16:43 |
| kenvandine | either way | 16:43 |
| kenvandine | but... think of the case of gallery-app and sharing | 16:44 |
| aquarius | if I find an epub I want to read on a website, the way to get that is to open that website in the browser, download the link, and then content-hub the downloaded file into Beru. | 16:44 |
| nik90 | aquarius: good point | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | you could be looking a photos in gallery-app | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | and decide to share it | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | that could then find an app capable of sharing photos | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | which i think will be later defined as something other than source or destination | 16:44 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: but said that the destination apps do not need a hook | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | but the hub would deal with finding the app that could share it | 16:44 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: so how would gallery find it then? | 16:44 |
| kenvandine | it would need a hook if you want other apps to find it | 16:45 |
| nik90 | kenvandine: okay | 16:45 |
| kenvandine | but if you just want to be able to pick content from other apps, you don't need to register as a destination | 16:45 |
| nik90 | something like destination: pictures | 16:45 |
| kenvandine | but if you want to be a destination that other apps can use | 16:45 |
| nik90 | makes sense | 16:45 |
| kenvandine | then you would register | 16:45 |
| kenvandine | but if you are just a consumer, then no need | 16:45 |
| aquarius | absolutely -- so, for example, the Messaging app would register itself as a destination for things so that I can say "Share this pic" in the gallery app and one option I will get for the app to share it *with* will be Messaging. Or, in the Messaging app I can say "give me a picture to share" and that will open the picker and show pics from the gallery app. So it can be driven both ways. | 16:45 |
| kenvandine | right | 16:46 |
| kenvandine | hopefully that helps... i need to run out for a few | 16:46 |
| kenvandine | bbs | 16:46 |
| nik90 | aquarius: this content hub is awesome | 16:46 |
| aquarius | thanks kenvandine :) | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | note: you can initiate an export from a source yet | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | but soon :) | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | you can only request content from a source right now | 16:47 |
| aquarius | nik90, it will be awesome. At the moment it's pretty new; that's why I wanted to play with it a bit, to get a sense of how it'll work | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | i'm working on the other direction :) | 16:47 |
| nik90 | awesome | 16:47 |
| nik90 | thnx | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | please let me know how it can be improved | 16:47 |
| kenvandine | and file bugs :) | 16:47 |
