EphyDeli

Woohoo, I solved my Epiphany problem, so have just done the first release of EphyDeli.

EphyDeli is a Python extension for Epiphany that adds Post To Delicious menu and toolbar items, for posting the current page to Del.icio.us. It's lean, mean, and very simple, but does the job.

To download it you can either the tarball or fetch the bzr tree. Don't hesitate to mail me with any problems, and don't hesitate to drop a quick mail if you actually use it so I can see if it's popular.

Nice! Does it integrate with the Epilicious extension in any way (shared login credentials)?
Posted by Luis at Tue Aug 29 22:04:50 2006:
What does this provide (or intend to provide) that a bookmarklet dragged to my toolbar doesn't?
Posted by Ross at Tue Aug 29 22:13:59 2006:
Reinout: Yes and no.  It currently just loads the post page so the login cookie is all you need.

Luis: Bookmarklets have labels, and that bugged me.  I also prefer to have a lean toolbar and as posting to delicious doesn't happen that often a menu item is more convenient for me.

This sounds cool - I'll have a play tomorrow - but I won't really use del.icio.us properly until I can access my bookmarks from within the browser. Ideally, I'd like to be able to replace the entire epiphany bookmark system with del.icio.us or another centralised bookmarking system. I know this is only tangentially related to your post but I think it's a good idea.

Simon: check out epilicious:

Ross: would it be more generally useful to allow toolbar bookmarks to be represented purely by favico?

Luis: possibly.  To be honest this started as a way of learning how to write an Epiphany extension. :)

Johan: merged. ROCK.

Hm, it does not work on fc5. Maybe it is just me :(

Trond: run Epiphany in a console and see what errors you get, maybe I'm using features that are only in Epiphany 2.17.

I did the same thing for the same purpose last month, but I never released it (it uses epilicious for posting to delicious and has a dialog to enter tags and description). I will try to merge with latest bzr version and mail you.

This is what I get if I run epiphany from gnome-term:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/trondd/.gnome2/epiphany/extensions/deliciouspost.py", line 24, in ?
  import pygtk; pygtk.require("2.0")
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pygtk.py", line 69, in require
  assert not sys.modules.has_key('gtk'), \
AssertionError: pygtk.require() must be called before importing gtk

** (epiphany:31649): WARNING **: Could not initialize Python module 'deliciouspost'

It works perfectly on Gnome epiphany 2.14.2.1 if I remove pygtk.require(). Could it be that epiphany has already imported gtk, and that is the reason for the problem?
Posted by Ross at Fri Sep 1 11:37:44 2006:
Yes, that is probably the problem.  I'll try removing it locally too and if it still works I'll remove it.

Great extension!

Give a try to these icons: http://sevenissimo.altervista.org/tango/delicious.tar.gz
to best fit with gnome-icon-theme
