Rake and darcs in Radiant extensions

I usually use darcs as code management system..it’s cool and easy to use…but i’ve got a problem using rake in my Radiant app..in fact when I type:

rake radiant:extensions:my_extension:task

..my task is executed twice because files in _darcs folder are loaded too..my friend Giovanni helps me saying that the code that runs extensions rakefiles is the following:

[RAILS_ROOT, RADIANT_ROOT].uniq.each do |root|
  Dir[root + '/vendor/extensions/**/tasks/**/*.rake'].sort.each { |ext|
    load ext
  }
end

…thus I changed extensions rakefile with theese lines:

[RAILS_ROOT, RADIANT_ROOT].uniq.each do |root|
  files = Dir[root + '/vendor/extensions/**/tasks/**/*.rake']
  files.delete_if do |file|
    file.include? '_darcs'
  end
  files.sort.each { |ext| load ext }
end

…and now it excludes all files in _darcs folder!

Gallery extension for Radiant

I’m working on a new website..I’ve decided to use Radiant as CMS…it is very simple to use and to configure, and it could be used for the most of my works! My client needs some simple pages, and with the Radiant backend he can easily manage all the contents, but..he can’t create photo galleries!!That is why i’ve started develop my Gallery extension for radiant. If you want give that a try… you can download the archive, or use darcs to get it from my repository typing:

darcs get http://darcs.bigchieflabs.com/radiant/extensions/gallery/

Extract it (or get it with darcs) in your extensions folder (RADIANT_ROOT/vendors/extensions) and type theese commands in your RADIANT_ROOT to install it:

rake radiant:extensions:gallery:install
rake radiant:extensions:gallery:example

..enjoy!
