To get into EOF through ceofhack, you should make sure you understand
|
|
[[how to use|user]] ceofhack in general. Depeding on your skills and
|
|
interests, you may either be interested in
|
|
|
|
* hacking the core (aka ceofhack, rare developers probably)
|
|
* creating user interfaces (ui)
|
|
* creating transport protocols (tp)
|
|
|
|
## API documentation
|
|
|
|
In general, everything you need should be documented in the
|
|
EOF standard document. If it's not, it's probably a bug
|
|
(in that case, send a patch).
|
|
|
|
## UI developers
|
|
|
|
UIs can either live in their own projects or be a part of
|
|
ceofhack. The **first** way is recommended, so your development
|
|
does not depend on ceofhack.
|
|
|
|
## Transport protocol developers
|
|
|
|
TPs can either live in their own projects or be a part of
|
|
ceofhack. The **second** way is recommended, so all available
|
|
transport protocols are shared with the ceofhack installation.
|
|
|
|
### Creating a new transport protocol
|
|
|
|
You can use the following code as a start:
|
|
|
|
scheme=phpbb
|
|
implementation=shell
|
|
cd ceofhack/tp
|
|
mkdir -p ${scheme}/${implementation}
|
|
echo "echo listening implementation" > ${scheme}/${implementation}/listen
|
|
echo "echo send implementation" > ${scheme}/${implementation}/send
|
|
chmod 0755 ${scheme}/${implementation}/*
|
|
|
|
Now you've a dummy "working" transport protocol.
|
|
|
|
### Enabling a new transport protocol
|
|
|
|
You can use the following code as a start:
|
|
|
|
scheme=phpbb
|
|
implementation=shell
|
|
cd ceofhack/tp
|
|
|
|
# Enable protocol in general
|
|
mkdir -p "$HOME/.ceof/tp/available/${scheme}"
|
|
cp "${scheme}/${implementation}/listen" "$HOME/.ceof/tp/available/${scheme}"
|
|
cp "${scheme}/${implementation}/send" "$HOME/.ceof/tp/available/${scheme}"
|
|
|
|
# Enable listener for protocol
|
|
address="describe-particular-address"
|
|
mkdir -p "$HOME/.ceof/tp/listen/${scheme}-${address}"
|
|
echo "${scheme}${address}" > "$HOME/.ceof/tp/listen/${scheme}-${address}/url"
|
|
|
|
### Submitting a transport protocol for inclusion into the mainline
|
|
|
|
* Create a branch ${scheme}-${implementation} on your side
|
|
* Submit a pull request (via ML, IRC, github, whatever)
