====Zenit Google Search====
 
This is my submission.  I am assuming we are encouraged to reuse code wherever possible.  When using the search it is recommended that you separate the terms by + signs as that is what the goggle interface inserts between search terms.  I found that it works when spaces are used as well though.

====Timer====
 +
Written by: [[User:Scott|Scott Lunel]] <br />
 +
For this lab I was interested to see whether or not it would be possible to run a delayed command under Ubiquity. I've recently<br />been dealing with threads and sleeping them in C++.<br /><br />
 +
At first I attempted something along the lines of:<br />
 +
 +
<br />
 +
<pre>
 +
CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 +
  name: "Timer",
 +
  author: "Scott Lunel",
 +
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
 +
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
 +
  execute: function(directObj) {
 +
    var start = new Date().getTime();
 +
    var cur = start;
 +
    var secDuration = start + parseInt(directObj.text);
 +
 +
    while(parseInt(cur) < parseInt(secDuration)){
 +
      cur = new Date().getTime();
 +
    }
 +
 +
    displayMessage( "Time's Up!" );
 +
   
 +
  }
 +
})</pre>
 +
 +
<br />
 +
However this wasn't exactly what I was looking for because it caused the browser to freeze while the command was running.<br /><br />
 +
I did a little more looking and found this method instead:<br />
 +
<br />
 +
<pre>
 +
CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 +
  name: "Timer",
 +
  author: "Scott Lunel",
 +
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
 +
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
 +
  execute: function(directObj) {
 +
 +
    Utils.setTimeout(function() { displayMessage("Time's Up!"); }, parseInt(directObj.text));
 +
   
 +
  }
 +
})
 +
</pre>
 +
<br />
 +
Unlike the previous command, it will not freeze the browser while the timed command is being performed.<br />

Cuil is the new sensation in the search market. Cuil is the search engine for the future. That's why I have just implemented the search for CUIL. This is so simple but I'll try to make it better, efficient and useful.

The code is totally based on Zed's code(except only one line). It has just better Documentation.

====Start a new cl1p.net page====

I originally wanted to make it so that selected text would make it into the page created by this command but i couldn't figure it out. It'll be something I'll continue to look into when time permits.
 +
 +
cl1p.net is an internet clipboard like pastebin but you can select the name that your clipboard gets. This command allows you to select the name of the page via ubiquity and it loads it for you. If you don't supply a name, it just takes you to the site.

Ubiquity commands

Introduction

These are the results for the DPS909/OSD600 lab 1. Place any and all common results, code, notes here.

Zenit Wiki Search

Zenit-Wiki Search by Ezadkiel Marbella: 

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "zenit/wiki specific search:",
 takes: {"search zenit/wiki term": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, wikiquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "Will Search For: " + wikiquery.text;
 },
 execute: function( wikiquery ) {
  var url = "http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search={QUERY}&go=Go"
  var query = wikiquery.text;
  var urlString = url.replace("{QUERY}", query);
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(urlString);
 }
})

Zenit Google Search

This is my submission. I am assuming we are encouraged to reuse code wherever possible. When using the search it is recommended that you separate the terms by + signs as that is what the goggle interface inserts between search terms. I found that it works when spaces are used as well though.

/*This function is based off Ezadkiel Marbella's code
  http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Learning_Collaborative_Development_Lab_Fall_2008_Results
*/
CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "zenit-google-search:",
 takes: {"search terms seperated by a '+' sign": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, googlequery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "Will Search For: " + googlequery.text;
 },
 execute: function( googlequery ) {
  var urlPrefix = "http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=site%3Azenit.senecac.on.ca%2Fwiki+"
  var urlSuffix = "&btnG=Search&meta="
  var query = googlequery.text;
  var urlString = urlPrefix + query + urlSuffix;
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(urlString);
 }
})

   /* Gets the title of the document in wiki */
   var wikiTitle = currentPath.substring(currentPath.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);

   var printURL = wikiHome + "?title=" + wikiTitle + "&printable=yes";

   Utils.openUrlInBrowser( printURL );

I'll probably continue to work on it. Add some dynamic CSS to the preview div.

I was successful at adding a preview. Check the link above for the updated version. --Cbishop2 01:05, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Timer

Written by: Scott Lunel
For this lab I was interested to see whether or not it would be possible to run a delayed command under Ubiquity. I've recently
been dealing with threads and sleeping them in C++.

At first I attempted something along the lines of:


CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
  name: "Timer",
  author: "Scott Lunel",
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
  execute: function(directObj) {
    var start = new Date().getTime();
    var cur = start;
    var secDuration = start + parseInt(directObj.text);

    while(parseInt(cur) < parseInt(secDuration)){
      cur = new Date().getTime();
    }

    displayMessage( "Time's Up!" );
    
  }
})


However this wasn't exactly what I was looking for because it caused the browser to freeze while the command was running.

I did a little more looking and found this method instead:

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
  name: "Timer",
  author: "Scott Lunel",
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
  execute: function(directObj) {

    Utils.setTimeout(function() { displayMessage("Time's Up!"); }, parseInt(directObj.text)); 
    
  }
})


Unlike the previous command, it will not freeze the browser while the timed command is being performed.

Cuil Search

Cuil is the new sensation in the search market. Cuil is the search engine for the future. That's why I have just implemented the search for CUIL.

Share a webpage on Facebook!

User:tjbro This command allows a user to share a web page on Facebook. Although I couldn't get the preview to act the way I orginally had in mind I'm going to continue working on it in hopes of avoiding the pop-up window. 

CmdUtils.CreateCommand(
{
 name: "share-fb:",
 preview: function( pblock, wikiquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "Share this page on Facebook!";
 },
 author: {name: "Thomas Brown"},
 execute: function() {
    window.open("http://www.new.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=" + context.focusedWindow.document.location,"Share on Facebook","menubar=no,width=600,height=360,toolbar=no");
  }
})

Start a new cl1p.net page

by Johann Manzano:
I originally wanted to make it so that selected text would make it into the page created by this command but i couldn't figure it out. It'll be something I'll continue to look into when time permits.

cl1p.net is an internet clipboard like pastebin but you can select the name that your clipboard gets. This command allows you to select the name of the page via ubiquity and it loads it for you. If you don't supply a name, it just takes you to the site. original post here 

function cl1pPage( name ) {
  var url = "http://cl1p.net/" + name;
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(url);
}

CmdUtils.CreateCommand ({
name: "cl1p",
takes: {"page name": noun_arb_text},

preview: function(pBlock, directObj) {
  if (directObj.text)
    pBlock.innerHTML = "goto cl1p.net/" + directObj.text;
  else
    pBlock.innerHTML = "goto cl1p.net";
},

execute: function(directObj) {
  var text = directObj.text
  cl1pPage(text);
}

});
