= journal2webdav =
journal2webdav publishes content from the Sugar Journal (or rather from
the underlying data store) via WebDAV.
The content to be published can be adjusted by choosing a suitable data
store query. Write access is currently not supported.
== Dependencies ==
On a system that's already running Sugar, you only need to install
[[http://code.google.com/p/pywebdav/ pywebdav]]. It's available in
Debian as python-webdav and in Fedora as pywebdav.
== Installation ==
You can use setup.py like for most other Python applications:
{{{
./setup.py install --user
}}}
== Running ==
As journal2webdav connects to the Sugar data store, it needs to be run
within a Sugar session (at least if you intend to run Sugar while
journal2webdav is running). For trying it out, the easiest way is to
invoke it from within the Terminal activity:
{{{
journal2webdav
}}}
You can start journal2webdav automatically with your Sugar session by
placing it in {{{~/.sugar/debug}}}. That file isn't really intended for
this kind of use, but it's the only thing that will currently work if
you use {{{sugar-emulator}}}. If you're running Sugar as a regular X
session, {{{~/.xsession}}} may be a better place (if your system uses
it).
=== Browsing ===
If you used the defaults, you can start browsing using your favourite
WebDAV client by pointing it at [[dav://localhost:8009]]. E.g. using
cadaver:
{{{
$ cadaver dav://localhost:8009/
dav:/> ls
Listing collection `/': succeeded.
Coll: by-id 0 Apr 3 13:10
Coll: by-tags 0 Apr 3 13:10
Coll: by-title 0 Apr 3 13:10
dav:/> ls /by-tags
Listing collection `/by-tags/': succeeded.
Coll: example 0 Apr 3 13:10
Coll: test 0 Apr 3 13:10
dav:/> ls /by-tags/example
Listing collection `/by-tags/example/': succeeded.

dav:/> ls /by-title
Listing collection `/by-title/': succeeded.
dots - 2011-06-12 18:37:17.ta 9981 Jun 12 2011
}}}
=== Selecting what to publish ===
By default, journal2webdav will show all your favourite Journal entries
(i.e. those with the favourite star ticked). This conflates what you
want to keep with what you want to export, so you can tell
journal2webdav what to export by providing a different root
query. E.g. to export all TurtleArt instances:
{{{
journal2webdav --root-query '{"activity": "org.laptop.TurtleArtActivity"}'
}}}
Please note that current versions of sugar-datastore (up to and
including at least 0.96) only support queries based on a very small set
of properties. Unfortunately, neither 'tags' nor anything else more
suitable for selecting which entries to export is included this subset.
=== Exposing your Journal to the world ===
To prevent others from browsing your Journal while you're trying out
journal2webdav, by default only local applications will be allowed to
connect. To allow other users to access journal2webdav, you need to let
it bind to all interfaces:
{{{
journal2webdav --host ''
}}}
