Cineplex 21 Plasma Data Engine




Cineplex 21 Plasma Data Engine

Originally uploaded by Framed Geek

Yes, I finally got my hands wet in KDE4. A little luck has giving me the ultimate desire of my life so far, ie: playing with new KDE4 technology. Solid, Phonon, Decibel, etc is out of reach at the moment. I have no luck nor skill to play with those ones.

The field is different with Plasma. I’m no graphic ninja, but I love (simple) data processing. I’ve been playing with Dapper and Pipes. Now, KDE 4 has given me new toy to play with. Plasma has data engine! Roughly, we can provide a custom data which every Plasmoid will be able to access. We can do whatever we need behind the stage and present the result in some sort tuples.

Next will be, obviously, making my own Plasmoid! Yatta~

  2. Bentar lagi Beta 2 kok pakdhe. Oktober awal ini.

    Di sini sudah ada cluster icecream, ada 5 mesin. Jadinya tidak gitu khawatir lagi soal resource buat compile-compile. Sayangnya traffic UDP tidak direstui di sini jadinya saya ndak bisa mengajak pakdhe untuk bikin cluster juga via VPN.

  3. [...] Cineplex21 Plasmoid cineplex21 plasmoid Originally uploaded by Framed Geek Yesterday was the data engine, and today is the plasmoid. I have to refine the data structure within Cineplex21 Data Engine. Mostly to comply with the API. There’s no ultimate rule on how you should structure your data. Though it would be nice to follow the example given on other plasmoids. At least until there’s an official standard for it. I started this plasmoids from Clock code. Copy the folder and rename the bits. CMakeList.txt almost made me pulling out hairs, until I found the typo. I missed one line that still referring to ${clock_SRCS}. That’s what you’ll get for being lazy :p So, that’s it. You can see it in the screenshot. A very minimal look with very minimal info. TODO: add schedule information, and maybe put some credits information in it. I need to tell that data is pulled from 21cineplex.com via Dapper. For you Indonesian, put this plasmoid on your desktop! Huzzah for KDE4!! Banzai~ PS: it’s now hardcoded to show schedule for Ambarukmo Plaza Studio. It’s a matter of config to make it possible to choose which theater to display.
