Websocket in GAE

It's christmas : Great day for GAE lovers. Channels are available in GAE ! I have played since yesterday : It's amazing, and well integrated.

The SDK provides a javascript lib for the client side (which simulate websocket). But the client can't write into the socket, and need to call serverside thru ajax ;-(. Only the server side can write into it to push data for clients. APIs are low level, server side needs to maintain its clients, thru datastore.

I can start to implement web game in atomic bombers

EDIT : It seems it's not real websocket (to be able to work on every browsers, or because html5 specs is not really finnished). But it works like. Currently the JS SDK do polling for you ;-(. Hope the real websocket will be available soon !

Simon dans le freestore

Il fallait que je test l'appstore de la freebox. C'est chose faite, Simon est maintenant disponible (gratuitement) dans le freestore. Les heureux possesseurs de freebox le trouveront dans la section jeux/gratuit.

Ça redonne envie de s'y remettre, à la programmation elixir sur freebox ;-)

Sinon, j'aime beaucoup BounceBox

Autowifi should work again with freewifi

Sorry for that ! It seems it makes some times since autowifi couldn't autologin on freewifi hotspots. In fact, free.fr made some changes in the authent process, and autowifi was broken for 1 or 2 months (?!). In daylife, I use only FON spots, so I never saw this bug, sorry ;-)

Now it should be corrected with 0.1-public23 release for lucid.

Snippets offline and Html5

I'm a big fan of snippets concepts ;-). I'd always used snippets web sites. I'd started with dzone. I'd switched to friendsnippets.com. But this last one is dead ... and I'd switched to snipplr.com, which is a great service (with lot of external tools, and great api). But I always needed to developp my own backends, to use them offline (komodo snippets file, gsnip (popup menu for inserting snippets in an editor), html file, xmpp/mail bot...).

Now, it's over ;-) I had switched to my own, which is a app engine website, which works online and offline, and sync enabled (thanks to newest html5 features). No need to say that it fits my needs. My snippets will always be available, at least, for me ;-) ... There is now a "snippets link" at the bottom of my website.

I don't know if I will get the force to make it available for everyone too. But it's perfect for me.

Atomic Bombers in html5

I've made a remake of my old game Atomic Bombers for html5 compatible browsers. The original game was developped during the mid 90s, under the label Mary Poppins and the Calgary's legion, on an Amiga500 using seka assembler (680x0). It's always available as ADF format for UAE/Amiga. It was a clone of dynablaster. For the background, I'd started to make it, because I wanted to play at more than 2 players. A lot of fun/original features was added during its live. And a Windows/pc version (from a friend) came out in 2000.

This new version is not feature complete yet, and miss some sounds. But it's a question of time ;-). It uses the graphics from the windows/pc version. Graphics were done by my brother (amiga and windows version). The main purpose of this version was to test if it was possible to make this game in a browser (using html5/javascript). The result is fairly good (from my point of vue ;-). And It seems to work on old configs too ;-).

I'd like to make an online multiplayer version (using html5/websocket), but I need to wait that google appengine provide a websocket support ;-). Currently, it supports up to 4 local players on the keyboard (and keys can be configured locally).

A nice thing is the atomic bombers online editor, which let everybody (with a google account) the ability to create/test its own grids. All goods grids will be included in the real game part.

Flash will die ... long live to html5 ;-)

These last days, I'm playing a lot with HTML5 features. And I really believe/hope that Adobe Flash will die. Some news like that or that go in the same way. Video platforms are on the good way, see youtube or dailymotion!

Try theses experiments in compatible browsers, or this wonderful NES emulator in full javascript ... Everything seems possible : quake2 in html5 browsers !

Websocket, webworkers and offline features are others great html5 features, to be able to replace flash ! (others html5 features on html5demos)

I play a lot with websockets in eventlet, but nothing to present here, because I'm waiting for the GAE support ;-) (don't want to setup an external websocket server). But it's really amazing to be able to communicate in the 2 ways !

I've made a little game : cavepilot using canvas (my record is 44seconds, and yours ?)! In the future, I'd like to make it two players with websocket support.

And a fun thing to make orbits !!!

Mise à jour des flux du plugin totem flux

Il y a qques jours j'ai corrigé les flux de certaines radios qui avaient complètement refait leurs pages podcasts (lemouv, rtl, franceinfo et europe1). Et là, je viens de rajouter les podcats vidéos d'arte+7 ! Tout ça côté serveur, donc pas besoin de mettre en place une nouvelle version du plugin. Tout est pris en compte dans l'actuel version du plugin (v0.3.1)

voir totem plugin flux

Bon podcasting !

Another quickly project : autowifi

It's an old project I used in my netbook since one year. But I released it under GPL2 licence, thanks to quickly ;-).

It's a simple pygtk application which stays in the gnome systray. It will try to automatize your web-based authentification on free hotspots which support this kind of thing (currently, only freewifi), letting you surf without the hassle of filling a web-based authentification.

See more on AutoWifi's page

The original announce on ubuntu-fr

Quickly approved, and my new PPA on launchpad

To test the marvelous quickly : I've done a little application which is able to send files/folders (as a zip archive if needed) to dl.free.fr (which is a sharing host service). I called it FreeTP, and it's now available in my new ppa.

Quickly is marvelous : it works as expected. You just have to code your app, and it does all the rest (template, packaging, licensing, source control (thru bzr), debian repository (launchpad)). A real breeze in the world of ubuntu/gnome/gtk/python development ! A lot of time was saved, thanks for that ! I've not taked the time to explore launchpad yet, but it seems it could provide bug tracker, mailinglist, ... great!

I think I will use quickly in the future, for this kind of things.
