Hi all, I've done a sort of "index" of the gnome-shell js files (in js/ui and js/misc) for GNOME 3.2 and 3.4, listing briefly what each file does and giving also a quick summary of classes in each file.
I thought I'd share it on the list in case anyone wants a quick guide. I imagine this will mainly be new gnome-shell-extension developers saying "I want to write an extension that modifies the XYZ behaviour, what files should I look at?" - they can quickly locate some relevant files as a starting point and then go read those files. It is by no means definitive (or entirely correct !! I'm still learning myself - corrections welcome. 'specially all the DBus stuff which still confuses me greatly - "server", "proxy", "object", ...), but it may be of some use. It lives here: http://mathematicalcoffee.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/gnome-shell-javascript-source.html However, is there some sort of gnome shell extensions wiki that I could upload this to so that it could be collaboratively worked on? I envision there being a quick index of file -> summary of what it does (e.g. "status/network.js - the network indicator") along with a wiki article for each file with more details. Or perhaps it might be worthwhile for me to try integrate some of these comments into the JS source in preparation for eventually running a documentation generator (some sort of doxygen equivalent for javascript) over it. Corrections & suggestions welcome (though if there's a wiki page I can put it on we can all correct/add to it in bits and pieces). cheers _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
