With issues gathering on bitbucket, I'd like to have a way to gather and back them up in the event that I need an offline copy, or no longer use Bitbucket, or something else. The site doesn't offer this service. Is there an alternative mechanism I can use?
From now on you can Import/Export your Issues:
Goto: -> Administration -> Import/Export
Youtube-Video: Bitbucket Issue Export
You can get your issues via the Bitbucket API.
Here is an example URL to get the issues for one of my projects:
https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories/christianspecht/bitbucket-backup/issues/
However, this returns a list of the issues in JSON format.
I doubt that you can do anything useful with a list of issues in JSON, but I don't know if there's a better file format for issues.
I just asked exactly that here on StackOverflow, because I'm dealing with the same thing at the moment:
Is there a standard file format for exporting issues from an issue tracker?
Full disclosure I am the author of Issue2Markdown because I really needed it.
As mentioned previously you can export your issues from Bitbucket project by going to Settings->Issues->Import & Export and then downloading the resultant ZIP file.
Inside that ZIP file, you will find JSON file and attachments archive. You can import those into some other issue repository. Or if you are like me you may be working with a remote team that is reluctant to use an issue tracker and would like to be able to read a human-readable version of the issues.
That is where Issue2Markdown comes in. You can use that to render your issues as a single Markdown document. You can find pre-built binaries for Linux, Windows, and MacOS under releases.
I hope that helps the next person who could not find the solution.
There doesn't currently appear to be any way to export your issues :(
You could export issues from settings in the repository. Then download the and extract the zip file, that would give you a json that you just could parse any way you prefer
I wrote a small python script to convert issues json file to excel that you can find it here. Hope it gives you some ideas:

I need to develop an editor for .aef file extension. But after doing a lot of googling i didn't find out what is the architecture of .aef. How we can read/write .aef file.
Any help is much appreciated
To be able to open a .AEF file you have to download the Script Editor from UCCX. Login to CCX Administration -> Tools -> Plugins -> Cisco Unified CCX Editor
Hope this helps
you need to download CiscoUnifiedCCXEditorInstall.exe this file is download from uccx admin page, here you have a link to download the image of UCCX admin, but you need a license.
Here you have a link for free download software:
https://ciscosoftware.mediuscorp.com/market/networkers/homeWork
An aef file for Cicso UCCX is a serialized Java object. Documentation for Java Object Serialization is here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/serialization/index.html.
While it may be possible to create 3rd party software to work with these files, it may be impossible or at least difficult to make it complete and accurate without the proprietary Cisco software the contained serialized objects refer to.
I've written an ePub generator by using ZipArchive in .NET and looking at the spec (in Wikipedia) & a example.
It doesn't work! But I only get a generic error so I'm unable to fix anything from here.
Where could I go to upload my ePub and be told what is wrong with it? Or is there a tool that is better for it? I'm currently using Adobe ePub reader...
I realize this is an old question, but in case others come across this I wanted to contribute. The IDPF which is responsible for the ePub standard has a tool for checking ePubs called epubcheck. It can be found at https://github.com/IDPF/epubcheck.
In addition, they have their own online validator that uses epubcheck. It is located at http://validator.idpf.org/
I found an online validator tool at http://www.epubconversion.com/ePub-validator-iBook.jsp.
There are two basic black box approaches.
First: Generate a file and put it into a validator.
Second: Take a set of in- and output without using your code (other generator, example, do it manual). Then use a file comparison tool (maybe extract zip first).
Here is a good offline checking tool for Windows, Mac or Linux OS:
http://www.pagina-online.de/produkte/epub-checker/
It's a great tool which even i used to validate and generate epub files also clearly give errors if any.
We have a multilingual site that is currently using 2 languages, but with several others coming soon. The site is localized primarily by resx files, but with some localized data in a database.
We need to find some tools to manage localization of the site - something that picks up on changes in resx files so translators will only need to translate new or updated texts.
Any ideas or recommendations? We're also interested in any articles about the logistics of localization if anyone has some.
I'm researching this area as we speak and I came across your post. I'm not sure if this is any help but in the past we used RCWinTrans for our localization. This was for mutiple C++/MFC products although it does support .Net . We would have a RCWinTrans project for each language/product we intended to support although you could have multiple languages in a single project. It kept track of state (i.e. not-translated, translated, changed, etc) and would allow us to export the strings to an excel spreadsheet which we could then send onto a translator. They would updated the spreadsheet and we would reimport the data.
Hope this helps, apologies if I'm on the wrong track and I'm teaching grandma to suck egss. I will be creating another thread today with a similar requirement to this btw, but with a few more snagettes - might be worth a look to see if I get any answers. Cheers, Roger
An idea might be to have all the localization data the database (or a localization database), this way one could build the localization tools/interface as part of the application and poyentially use it for many applications?
There is a free tool called Resource Translation Helper ( http://www.winking.be/resource-translation-helper )
Install it
Point it to your project directory
Export to excel (.xls)
Give the excel to your translaters and let them update the columns.
Import the updated xls file again
The tool creates also a file to map the resx translation to the excel rows. Don't remove that or you will not be able to import again.
Works very good, but backup your data before adjusting things ;-)
You cant try to use this Visual Studio extension https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/2676967b-0516-4f5f-b312-6873e2f9d219.
It allows to export/import your project resources to/from excel and to add new cultures.
Old question, but I would like to add http://www.zeta-resource-editor.com/index.html
Free tool for .NET resource files.
This directly edits the resource files, no need to ex-/import.
The team I work for manages a large collection of technical documentation which is written in LaTeX.
Currently all the documentation we have is manually built by the editors and then checked into a version control system. Sometimes people forget to compile their documents so we have a situation where the PDF and .tex files are often out of step. Unfortunately when this happens our users find themselves reading old versions of our document.
I've managed to hack a simple script to build PDFs using Make - it's rather clumsy.
I was wondering if there was a better way to do it? Most people in our department use Eclipse + Pydev for a Python project which means we are all very familiar with this IDE. I know that Ant plays nicely with Eclipse, so might we be able to use this tool for our doc building?
So what's the best way of doing this? I hope I will not have to learn everything there is to know about a new build-system in order to automate the building of some quite simple docs.
There is an external Ant task for LaTeX PDF generation, though the site is in German.
To use it, download the jar to a location on your machine, then define a taskdef as follows:
<taskdef name="latex" classname="de.dokutransdata.antlatex.LaTeX"
classpath="/path/to/ant/lib/ant_latex.jar"/>
Then to use it, define a target like this:
<target name="doLaTeX">
<latex
latexfile="${ltx2.file}"
verbose="on"
clean="on"
pdftex="off"
workingDir="${basedir}"
/>
</target>
Where ltx2.file is the file to process.
This is a link to the howto page listing the parameters. If you need any more options, my German is just about passable enough to explain, maybe.
There is also a maven plugin for LaTeX, but I can't find any documentation.
Haven't tried it, but I remember seeing a blog post about it.
If you know python, this blog post might be interesting
EDIT: Also, I would assume that you're using some kind of version control system, and I can't say for sure, but I use git to manage all my latex docs, and it might be possible to use some kind of post-commit hook to execute a script to rebuild the document. This would depend on how your repository is structured... just thinking out loud, so to speak.
I went into great detail on a large number of build systems for latex in this question, but its slightly different in your case. I think you want rubber or latexmk. The latex-makefile seems a good idea, but only supports building via postscript, which might not be your build process.
In general, its a good idea to keep generated files outside of version control for just this reason. A good exception is when specialist build tools are not widely available, and your situation sounds similar. You might do better with a commit-hook to build automatically upon commit.
I guess I should also point out that committing something without first building it and checking it is a deadly sin, so a better solution might be to stamp that out.
Maven is a better alternative as build system compared to Ant. So I would recommend a maven-plugin to generate PDF from LaTeX sources. Have a look at mathan-latex-maven-plugin
Is there a indexing plugin for GDS that allows for source code search? I see some for specific types (Java, C++, ...) and one for "any text". These are nice, but I would like one that allows for many/configurable extensions (HTML, CSS, JS, VB, C#, Java, Python, ...). A huge bonus would be to allow for syntax highlighting (http://pygments.org/) in the cache.
I just found Dropout and it seems to work great. Put Dropout in any folder and it will index all files in that folder. I put it in my Projects folder and it crawled all my code. Very fast and flexible search. Dropout
You could use OpenGrok or some other code-specific search engine instead.
I wrote a quick review of some of them some time ago.
It has been a long time, but the last time I tried to use Google Desktop Search for searching code, I found it quite inappropriate for that task, as I outlined at [http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=490310], the gist of which is that GDS (silently) only indexed a tiny fraction of many source code files (and made it quite a challenge to figure out why searching so often failed to find so much of what was in source code files).
I found Copernic Desktop Search worked better on code files (but I also had trouble with later versions of it being buggy in not finding all matches so I've been staying with version 2.1.1). But these days I don't use it much (mostly because I don't have permission to install such things on the laptop provided by my new employer).
You can try out Larry's Any Text File Indexer. You can specify a list of extensions at install time and it will do full text search on those file types.
Im just giving this a go:
http://desktop.google.com/plugins/i/java.html?hl=en
..also you can search for things in your Java tree using the following syntax in Google Desktop:
<YOUR SEARCH> filetype:java under:"C:\hft\trunk"
..where I keep my code in "C:\hft\trunk"
This is not a Google Desktop plugin, but works for what we need.
We have started using http://svnquery.tigris.org/ and it seems to work and is very fast. I wish it supported multiple repositories per site. We have a repository per project, so currently I have to create a virtual directory for each project we have. Not a show stopper, just something we need to automate in our project setup script.
