Dokuwiki, Gource : color now

In response to various requests, I just added the color to the Dokuwiki representation with Gource. You can now download the new version .

Wasab emulsion

We tasted this preparation in a very good restaurant ... By guessing the ingredients that could be present ... we managed to recreate a recipe for wasabi emulsion well nice and very easy to make :-)


Here is the recipe:

List of ingredients:

• 1 tsp wasabi (in a tube and not powder)
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• juice of half a lemon
• 200 ml of cream
  

Preparation:

Mix the wasabi in soy sauce. Add lemon juice, whipping cream and beat all until a stiff emulsion.



Suggestion:

You can serve as an appetizer with bread sticks, as an accompaniment to salmon sashimi.

Enjoy!

Gource and Dokuwiki : the video

The video :



obtain with the followinf command line :

gource --log-format custom dokusort.log --stop-position 1.0 --stop-on-idle --file-idle-time 10000000 --output-ppm-stream - | ffmpeg -y -b 3000K -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i - -vcodec mpeg4 gource.mp4

It takes a little time but the result is wonderful

Gource and Dokuwiki

Like everyone, I am fond of the wonderful videos made with Gource. The goal of this tool is to make a representation of the changes made on a version control system like git or SVN. But my favorite wiki ( DokuWiki ) is a version control system tool... Have a look to the folder tree to find the directory "dokuwiki/data/meta" in which the files "*. changes" contain exactly the information sought. For example, the file "systemes_visualisation.changes" looks like:

1263135717 ::1 C informatique:systemes_visualisation Wolverine créée 1263135717:: 1 C computer: Wolverine created systemes_visualisation
1263135988 ::1 E informatique:systemes_visualisation Wolverine 1263135988:: 1 E it: Wolverine systemes_visualisation
1263136423 ::1 E informatique:systemes_visualisation Wolverine 1263136423:: E a computer: Wolverine systemes_visualisation

Explanation :

1. the first column is a Unix Timestamp ,
2. the second is the IP address (I'm working on localhost ;-))
3. the third is the action performed (C created, E edited ,...)
   
4. the fourth is straightforward,
   
5. the fifth is the ID of the person who modified the page
6. and the last column is the smallest text you can perform when you edit a page ...
   

Now just turn this tree into a log file readable by Gource . To do this, I developed a small python script named gourcedoku.py:

#!/bin/python

To start it, nothing more simple, launch the script in yout dokuwiki directory :

python gourcedoku.py -d ~/Sites/MyDokuwiki/ | sort > dokusort.log

then view the result with Gource with the following command:

gource --log-format custom dokusort.log --stop-position 1.0 --stop-on-idle --file-idle-time 10000000

I will try to put this code on the site Gource site ;-) Feel free to ask me questions or to improve my script.

Chromoxy

I have just read the article from LifeHacker on how to block ads in Chrome browser Goolge ... ce serait un peu comme l'extension AdBlock Plus pour Chrome ;-) voir même encore un peu plus que seulement filtrer les publicités sur Chrome... This would be like the AdBlock Plus extension for Chrome ;-) see even a little more than just filter the ads on Chrome ... Je me suis dit que c'est pas mal mais pas très automatique ;-) j'ai donc écrit un petit script pour cela : I told myself that it's not bad but not very automatic ;-) so I wrote a little script for that:

#!/bin/sh / bin / sh

# Demarrage de Privoxy # Starting Privoxy
cd /Applications/privoxy/ cd / Applications / privoxy /
./privoxy & . / privoxy &

# demarrage de Chrome # START Chrome

How to import Mac OS X's icons in Visio

You certainly know the program Visio (Microsoft Office) that allows to make beautiful diagrams ... the only small snag, Visio's icons are particularly ugly... Therefore let me show you two techniques to import the beautiful Snow Leopard icons in your Visio.

Method: by hand

Select the application whose you want import the icon (with the famous Apple + C), then open the Preview application and choose "New from clipboard"

you will just have to save it as and choose the PNG format. You can now import your image into Visio.

Second method: using a script

The previous method let you to extract only an icon at a time, if you want to retrieve all the icons of Mac OS X, you can use the following python script:


/bin/python

import os
import re

text = "0000"
out = "~/Pictures/"

stdout_handle = os.popen ( "find / -name *. icns", "r")
while (text !=""):
stdout_handle.readline text = ()
regnamefile = re.compile ( '\/([^//]*)\. icns')
namefile = regnamefile.findall (text) [0]
Reglin = re.compile ( '(\/ .*\. icns)')
line = regline.findall (text) [0]
os.system ( "sips-s format png"+line+"-out"+out+namefile+".png")

Beware the indentation : it is the python ... ;-) The script first look for all icns file (the format of the icons of Mac OS X ;-) ;-)), then apply a transformation using the application sips available on Mac OS X. All files in PNG format will be created in your pictures folder ...

That ;-) I hope you will make beautiful patterns after that.

Installing Wikicalc: the most beautiful OpenSource spreadsheets

As I indicated in my last post: WikiCalc is a collaborative spreadsheet operating on the principle of wiki. It is completely written in Perl. To install Wikicalc, nothing more simple, just start by installing the necessary tools for your good old Debian:

apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-perl2

Then download sources: wikicalc-1-0.tar.gz. Then can begin the installation process itself:

cd /var/www
tar xvzf wikicalc-1-0.tar.gz
ln -s wikicalc-1-0 wikicalc

Now you have to let the Wikicalc engine to be accessible from your Web server: compared to the configuration by default, you just need to add these few lines :

NameVirtualHost * 
 
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost 

DocumentRoot /var/www/wikicalc/ 
 
Options FollowSymLinks 
AllowOverride None 
 
 
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI 
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl 
AllowOverride None 
Order allow,deny 
allow from all 
 
 

Load Perl module:

a2enmod perl
restart /etc/init.d/apache2

To finish the installation, go to http://wikicalc.monsite.com/wikicalccgi.pl and follow the instructions ....

Now you can play with this imressive spreedsheat

Simataï : the best part of the great wall

Simataï is probably the best part of the great wall, it is a bit farer than the other part of the great wall, nevertheless it is probably the more typical part of this monument. You will need good shoes to go there and a good health. Be careful there are some bees in the wall and if you are lucky you might be see some bats.

A good hotel in Beijing

I went in China this summer and I spent one week in the Beijing King's Joy Hotel, whose address is : No. 81, Meishi Street, Xuanwu District, Beijing

this hotel is not very far from the Tienanmen place, is very cheap (40$) and there is a very good restaurant in the hutong near the hotel. Hope it can help you...

Ratatouille : a great great movie

It has been a long time since, since I laughed because of a great comic movie… Ratatouille is a little rat, who wand to become a great chief in Paris. When you watch this movie, you become hungry and this movie is very well realized, there is a good timing and rhythm. The drawings of Paris are marvelous. It is worth seeing this movie, even if you are no more a child.

Simataï: marvellous the chinese Great Wall

After two weeks of holidays in China, some pics of the Great Wall: the part of Simataï. This part is worth be seeing, it has only very few tourists there, it was not rebuilt yet and thus kept any sound charms… Moreover there is low almost no salesman on the run. To make or see absolutly if you pass near it. It is necessary to be in good physical condition to be able to go up in Simataï and especially a good pair of walking shoe…

My week Harry Potter: The Deathly Hollows and the movie

I was in the FNAC (a big french store for books, disks, computers...), and I did not resist to buy the last Harry Potter : “Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows”. The intrigue puts a little time to set up itself, but one is glad finally to know the fate of Harry Potter. Poor Albus sees its will have put a little at evil but the final he will be rehabilitated… As a conclusion, it is not great literature (good it is true it is written in English…) but that slackens… On the other hand I went to see the same week : “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”

there too the intrigue puts much time to set up itself… certain elements overlooked and others are presented in an unmethodical way! I am fan of the 4 first opus, where the dream and fairyhood are omnipresent… I know the last Harry Potter want to be much darker as Voldemort seizes the power… But that does not want to say that the film must all sacrifice to the darkness. In conclusion, I was very disappointed! A good film: to see in DVD not more

Enough of Google: test Exalead

If you are fed up of the oneself-saying supremacy of Google as "search engine" on Internet, I propose you to test a new search engine, of the new generation: Exalead

this search engine was or is still implied in the European search engine Quaero, if this last is born or not…. The strong points of Exalead are thumbnail previews of the sites

I like also the possibility of making research directly in Wikipédia, the search engine for films is very good and the zapette is a brilliant idea: try it absolutely

moreover Exalead allows you to carry out research with regular expressions, the famous RegEx: the experts will appreciate. To finish and like quality guarantees: COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO, this search engine is French and was founded by François Bourdoncle: a pure product of the best French schools (Polytechnique and Mines)

La Butte aux Cailles and its restaurant: "Les Cailloux"

If you walk one day on the side of the Butte aux Cailles and that you start to feel the hunger to come, I advise you a small halt at the restaurant “Les Cailloux”. It is a small Italian restaurant not too far from the place of the Butte aux Cailles (XIII), with a middle-class Bohemian environment… but that's why we like the Butte aux Cailles, isn't it? The decoration is sober although a little sinks, with lamps which do not finish any going down… The reception is cordial and the service is fast. I can simply advise it to you for a meal with friends.

(The picture is borrowed from the site of the Verlaine Institute)

Second Life: my first avatar

Second Life is very hype so I have just created my avatar and plug me to Second Life… I am not yet totally accustomed with the interface, but it is rather easy to move and interact with the objects. The inhabitants of Second Life (avatars) are very cool and never hesitate to guide you and to help you.


Above a small island that I discovered thanks to Zelena (an avatar met on SL), normally it is a beach of nudists, there is some one of them but not every people… The good point of this small island is that it is rather easy to gain Linden (the local dollar, which will enable you to buy new accessories for your avatar, or to take part in other activities of this world). Indeed on this beach, you can gain 2L$ for 10 minutes sunbathing and you can take part in a lottery and gain even more Linden (not later than yesterday, I gained 238L$)


My avatar, on the bath towel which pays you to sunbathe… As you have probably noticed, my avatar is a default one and looks like a first 3D game of Sega, I advise you to seek a news skin (skin) and to modify your avatar a little… Hair flex adds also much to realism…


An air sight of the dancefloor. I hope to find you on SL (do not hesitate to contact me if you want to be escorted)
