I'd like to enable BATCH MEDIA upload to UMBRACO 5.
Unfortunately all existing packages are broken, so I've started creating my own
(following this guy's nice blog here.. http://heltblank.wordpress.com/2012/03/07/multiple-file-upload-for-umbraco-5-jupiter-using-uploadify/)
My PREFERED option would be using a WCF webservice, but a BackOfficeController is also an acceptable option...
Now the QUESTIONS:
*) How do I FETCH existing media folders (for parentId) in the webservice or BackOfficeController?
*) How do I Create a new Media Item in the webservice or BackOfficeController (directly via Hive, ..) not just calling the controller as in the blog above?
I've been really in love with Umbraco for 2+ years.. but the API model for Umbraco 5 seems a bit over-engineered in my opinion.. (Hive / Get Writer / Repository / Schema /...) all similar terms that harden development work like this..
Thanks for your help!
You may already be aware of this but as of (13th June 2012) Umbraco 5 is officially an abandoned project due to the fact it was fundamentally flawed at the architecural level and deemed unfixable.
It was announced at the Developer Conference... you can see the reasons why in the blog post below. Suffice to say, you're advised to not use it.

or watch the rather cringeworthy keynote video here :

So I recommend that you move to 4.X for the above and do above.
Thanks,

i'm a mobile-develop engineer.work on IOS platform,using Xcode.
a few days ago.the man server developer has been changed in our company.he said the popular way of developed is using the template whose name was Restful API,then I was starting know something about the Restful api.
what i knew the thought of the template was the server need only developed the just the one http-interface.they didn't care whatever clients how to requested and how hardly used.
i didn't agree that, example in the page.the requirements is search friends depends on the text which user input on search-bar.
the 1.0 version is just searched the information which key included name.maybe we will send the requestPostDate=xx(which user inputed),filter=name.
the 2.0 version is searched the information which key included name、sex、age or your personal description.but I can't changed the requirements as soon as possible. because i have been wroten filter=name.
what should we did if it should changed in 1.0 versions on AppStore platform.
so what we did is modified the code which filter=name,sex,age. and upload the new library(IPA),then send it to AppStore.hope it's successful during these days.
what i need to say is if we not using restful api.we can be controlled by server.we just tell them we had a key which is xx,the clients didn't care about what the logic of how to search, it easier? and it changed quickly?the client didn't modified any code.maybe we have Web-platform、IOS-platform、android-platform.
i don't know what's the template your company using now.if it's restful api.please tell me how to fix about the questions what i said before?
the problem what i said is the restful api is suitable in IOS platform? maybe is suitable in Web platform,but not suitable in Mobile-developed-platform.
do you agree what i said? if not.give me some point which you think is right please.
I'm developing for the Xbox with XNA currently, but when I click on several links to the official Microsoft site, e.g. tutorials and files, then I get redirected to this page:
http://forums.create.msdn.com/forums/t/19992.aspx
For example by clicking this link:
http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/sample/skinned_model
Anyone having the same problems with the official Microsoft site currently?
Yes. Microsoft are aware of this issue - although I'm not privy to any information about when/if they will fix it.
Basically, as part of the move to Windows Phone 8, they've separated out the Xbox and Phone development stuff.
If you come across old links like that, you can usually repair them by hand by changing the domain like so:
forums.create.msdn.com becomes xboxforums.create.msdn.com (change the subdomain)
And
create.msdn.com becomes xbox.create.msdn.com (add a subdomain)
Yes.
It'd be like this for a month now. It seems to suggest they are trying to downplay XNA for Windows 8 development which is saddening! You could always use Google's caching service to view the pages if you are finding them from Google... I don't think this will work for downloads though!
Is the MetaWeblog API still supported? I ask because while researching XMLRPC, the Cook Computing library and implementing MetaWeblog API, I clicked a link that took me to MSDN that states the topic has been removed.
There is a link there that takes me to new docs for Windows Live SDK. On the new page i cannot find current info on MWAPI.
I am using EF, MV3, and VB.Net.
MetaWeblog API support had always seemed (to me) tenuous at best. Seeing as how the project hasn't been updated since 2003 (http://www.xmlrpc.com/metaWeblogApi) I think it is safe to assume that support has essentially ceased. That's my .02 anyway.
(Also, the Yahoo web group's newest post is from 2004 (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MetaWeblog-API/))
I have some experience in iPhone development. Now one client wants to develop a BI (Business Intelligence) related iPad app for their organisation.
As I have no previous experience in development of such an application, I googled a bit & learned that these BI related apps show various data present in an organisation in various chart/graphical formats to the user.
Q1) So what is the best way to pull these data from server?
Q2) Also is there any API / Framework available to do this kind of app in iPad?
If anyone has any other suggestions, please post here.
There are a TON of ways to do this. You can build it with most any technology that your organization uses. The main key is to keep a clear separation of tiers. Build a web application that queries your database and have it present the information as XML or JSON. You can then parse the data and present it in your iOS application.
For actually doing data visualization, you will want to take a look at Core-Plot. I've used it on projects and it has worked well: http://code.google.com/p/core-plot/
If your customer wants an out-of-the-box solution for getting their BI on mobile devices, take a look at Actuate/BIRT. They have a simple way to get it into mobile.
I'd like to write a little book on personal topics together with two friends of mine, remotely located. Do you know of any FOSS content publishing system like the one from O'Reilly (OPFS)?
I saw the one that powers the django book but It seems that the code It's not released yet. I accept any kind of backend technology for this project.
I'd like to:
edit the book on the web and let my friend do the same after authentication.
anyone of us could comment other's entries.
You could use Google Wave. You get the benefit of watching where others are editing / you can roll back the whole doc or specific parts / comment on specific parts plus you can use it from any computer so you don't have to be home or carry a laptop to edit your book when inspiration hits you.
OK, I'm going to roll out my own solution following the direction written here. I like a lot thigs like bitesizeedits or leanpub. The base will be a multiuser platform: mu. I'm quite fond with wordpress and as version control I'm happy with GIT. The commenting system will be digress.it.
