FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: new FARR Plugin : Delicious - built on the Javascript SDK : FScript

Looks like you are scanning for a fixed set of suffixes (js, rb, vbs, py and pl).I could search for fscript.* but it would not give me the language that I need to tell to the script control. I could set it in the config file, but I like beeing able to just define a file and have a working plugin. If you want to write a plugin in a language not the list, tell me and I'll add it.
Well, why not? Is there any reason why not to use javascript regex? So I am forIt may be slightly incompatible with FARR regexes, there would be no call to onRegexSearchMatch. It wouldn't be possible to change the regexes from the FARR dialogs.-czechboy (February 10, 2008, 03:15 AM)

For plugins developed using scripting languages (ruby, perl, python) that aren't included in WSH by default, do the users need to have the ActiveState engines installed on their machines?Yes the active scripting engines must be installed.

ecaradec: I would like to suggest something. Is it possible to make javascript SDK plugin such way that all javascript plugins would be saved in folder like Fscript/jsplugins/myplugin and there would be only one fscript.dll for all javascript plugins. So that you would be able to update fscript yourself without us. Now I have to update all fscript.dll for my plugins manualy...This was my first idea. I'm not sure how I could do it, because FARR expect a plugin to export only one alias or one regex. I could make it work for aliases by filtering queries, but I'm not sure how I could do that for regexes because I would need to handle them myself and it may be not 100% compatible with FARR regexes.-czechboy (February 06, 2008, 09:16 AM)
What's the role of fscript.dll? There seems to be a problem with "it" or something in relation to it.Hum, the dialog shouldn't show at all since there is no options to configure. I will remove that as soon as possible.
For example I start some script in FARR and open debugger and set some break.. so it stops on the break and in the meantime FARR starts to object that the script takes to long and if I want to stop it.. I say continue and both debugger and FARR are crashed...
I do not know.. unfortunately I did not manage to start some kind of debugging with javascript...Here is how I enabled javascript debugging on my desktop :-czechboy (January 26, 2008, 08:47 AM)

. Glad you like it. Yes, the dialog is generated from the options document.



put the .alias file in the main zip right alongside the plugin and farr will find it.ok it's done.
also: maybe make a .dcupdate file for the plugin so farr will check for plugins.-mouser (January 06, 2008, 12:39 PM)
. The syntax changed a bit, you now have to type :Wow, works great. Even better then the ff extension i have been using.Thank you
I can't tell you how long i have been waiting for someone, somewhere in ANY launcher to make a useful delicious plugin.-s.newave (January 03, 2008, 01:11 PM)
.My only minor request would be to have an option to include the favicons of the site which i think helps you visually find the site you are looking for. Although this might potentially slow down the search too much.Good idea.-s.newave (January 03, 2008, 01:11 PM)
In this case a plugin can let farr continue searching while it works, and send results as readyThis is the case for the delicious plugin. I send results after reading the cache firstly and a second time when I receive the server answer if the cache was not up to date and that new results are availables. Because of this I only set the search state to stop once the server has answered.
