Kirjoitin tuossa yleishyödyllisen classin php:llä joka hakee uusimmat kuunnellut biisit last.fm Audioscrobbler xml-feedin parsimalla. tuna (kirjoitetaan aina pienellä) osaa myös tietojen cachettamisen, eli siis välimuistiin kirjoittamisen käyttäjän haluamaksi ajaksi käyttäjän valitsemaan kansioon.

Tämä on lajissaan ensimmäinen vapaan lähdekoodin projekti minulta, joten tietty uusi saavutus tämä on. Lisenssoin työn Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike-lisenssillä, joka on myös Audioscrobblerin käyttämä lisenssi tarjoamalleen tiedolle.

Pitemmittä puheitta tunan löydät Subversion repositoriosta osoitteessa https://svn.assembla.com/svn/tuna/ ja bugit yms kivat voi lähettää minulle (ja kaikille muille jotka haluavat osallistua kehittämiseen ja ylläpitoon) tunan Assembla-profiilin kautta.

Same in english: I released my first open-source (I guess you can spot the license above) for you people. It’s a php5 class that helps you retrieve last played tracks from last.fm and display them on your site nicely. It also does caching. If you find bugs, please report em, the addresses can be found above.

I like to keep my software, online and on hard drive, up to date. To accomplish this I use few awesome tools to keep my head clear.

To keep my Apple OS X Applications-folder up to date I use AppFresh, great app that first goes through the apps and widgets and compares the version information to osx.iusethis.com lists.

I look after about 5 wordpress blogs. To keep them all up to date to the latest releases, I don’t download the packages from the website, I use subversion access to keep the software up to date.

The next commands should be run inside bash shell. If you don’t know what that is, you probably shouldn’t do it all by yourself.

To install new blog from the subversion repositories (2.3 to demonstrate):
svn co http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.3/ .
in the directory where the software should be installed into (remember the dot at the end of the line).

To update to the latest version number (from 2.3 to 2.3.1 like I did yesterday):
svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.3.1/
in the same directory where the wp-config.php is, meaning your install directory.

You can just browse to the http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/ to find out the latest tags.

These few commands inside the bash shell keep my head even more clear. No more mistakes that override everything.

I’ve written about svn before, but for these commands and more I suggest reading “Updating WordPress with Subversion” from the Wordpress Codex. They also explain how to change the default/traditional install to subversion installation.

Lately I’ve been staying up more and more, almost so early I could see the sun come up again. This would be, more or less, ok if I would actually stay in balance between the waking hours and the times in deep sleep. The reality is different, I’ve started to keep myself more and more awake.
