ljrb release 0.3.1
LiveJournal Ruby module update: This release won't die when the "useragent" property is present in an entry. I've also added support for passing
:strict => false to the GetEvents constructor so we won't stop working every time LJ adds new metadata. (Note, however, that using :strict => false may mean that your entries may not perfectly round-trip from the server and back.)
By round-trip, I mean retrieving an entry and then posting it back up to the server and getting the "same" entry. The problem is you can't know for a given piece of new metadata whether it needs to be sent back when round-tripping; stuff like revnum doesn't, while stuff like current_location does.
I seem to recall sending the unnecessary ones produces a protocol error, which means I can't just save all props received in a hash and then send them back.
to see if there are any others, too.
module using gems, it was copied to:
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/
instead of:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/
where all the other modules got installed.
Ruby interpreter couldn't find it in there,
so I copied the livejournal folder manually
to the actual ruby installation folder.
How come that this code gives me 'NoMethodError' for "e.subject" when your "graph.rb" sample clearly uses similar code?
#!/usr/bin/ruby -I/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/livejournal-0.3.1/lib require 'livejournal/database' db = LiveJournal::Database.new('./lj.db') db.each_entry do |e| puts e.subject # ^^^^^^^^ Error is thrown here endTry adding "p e" before to see what e is, and whether it has other methods.
I'm still not used to mixins of this style (when two apparently full class definitions reside in two different files).
Great things you're doing there! I have a question, or rather a request concerning your ljrb. I couldn't make the sqlite example work, however, I don't intend to use it. I am planning to write a small code to take out some information from the post's comments and put it into the body of the post itself. Do you by any chance have a simpler example of how to get all comments of a post and write them not to a database, but rather xml or just a plain text file?
thanks a lot in advance

personifi_lang
personifi_word_count
i added those to my working copy of KNOWN_EXTRA_PROPS, but figured you might want to be aware of them for the next rev. I'm not sure what they are, or if you want to do anything special with them.
Bug report
I get the following error when exporting a journal:../lib/livejournal/entry.rb:174:in `load_prop': unknown prop (personifi_word_count, 1702) (LiveJournal::Request::ProtocolException) from ../lib/livejournal/entry.rb:327:in `run' from ../lib/livejournal/request.rb:114:in `each_in_array' from ../lib/livejournal/request.rb:113:in `each' from ../lib/livejournal/request.rb:113:in `each_in_array' from ../lib/livejournal/entry.rb:325:in `run' from ../lib/livejournal/sync.rb:123:in `run_sync' from ./export:97 from ./progressbar.rb:35:in `with_progress' from ./export:95Re: Bug report
You probably have figured this out yourself, but if you still need it, I forked the project and fixed this error:https://github.com/romanbsd/livejournal
in community X, find all posts with tag Y, and add tag Z to each such post
can you give me some clue as to how to proceed? In your documentation I did not see any reference to tags (or I missed it).
