In the contents side pane 'Developpers' has a typo: it should contain just 1 p. I saw it written like this elsewhere on Phatch-pages, too; maybe you can grep the pages to find them.
On the Contribute page, you might want to refer to the Extensions page as well.
After creating a wikidot account I still could'nt edit any page, is this correct? Or did I miss the 'edit this page' link/button?
The page that explains how to write actions,
http://photobatch.wikidot.com/writing-actions
states that the user place to store actions is
~/.phatch/actions/
whereas on my machine (Ubuntu9.10, installed via your ppa) it is
~/.local/share/phatch/actions/
Below 'Info and metadata', photo.get_info() should be used to look up info. But it is not clear where photo is obtained from. Should this be image.get_info()?
The save.py module in phatch/actions still uses photo.info()
Also, when I try to use photo.log in my action, I get an error that it is an unknown attribute. Could you please expand on this 'photo' object?
Likewise, how can a developer find out more about the 'image' object? It took me quite some time to find out that it has an attribute size.
Some more typos:
- custom ReadFileField should be custom ProfileReadFileField
- ImageReadFileField should be ReadFileField
- *nver* should be *never*
The tutorial also mentions a web page at
http://trac.gbiloba.org/phatch
which is (still ?) unavailable (HTTP 404 error).
Finally, are user submitted extensions reviewed very, very carefully?
Because it would be very easy for some Evil Person to wipe out all the files of a user by executing a Python script, wouldn't it?
The user submitted action 'Conditional Transpose' does not work currently.
It wants to import an unknown function 'new' and defines an (IMHO) outdated function 'values' since the function condtitionaltranspose could just query image.size.
