Thanks, Troy! It took me a while in the beginning to figure out how
Sword uses its system/user config/data directories. Looks like I hadn't
fully understood it yet at that time.
I'm planning to improve this in the next version of Ezra Project.
Best regards,
Tobias

PS. I noticed that you installed a ~/.sword/sword.conf in my home
directory which sets the [Install] DataPath to this location. This is
not correct. This overrides my systemwide /etc/sword.conf file. The
modules installed into ~/.sword/ are always augmented to the
SWORD_PATH, so this isn't necessary for your ~/.sword/ modules to be
included. I found this because I couldn't get the locales to work
when I was typing my last email to you. SWORD is installed on my
system with /etc/sword.conf:
[Install]
DataPath=/usr/share/sword/
and hence my locales files were installed to:
/usr/share/sword/locales.d/
Your ~/.sword/sword.conf which overrode this setting bypassed
everything in /usr/share/sword, including locales.d/ so no locales
were available.
Hope this helps too, :)

Hi Troy,
Yay! I'm excited to hear that Ezra Project works for you and thanks
for this report! :)
I'm glad I found some tools that allow packing of Electron
applications into *.debs and *.rpms rather easily.
I now have a script that can create packages for Ubuntu 18.04 &
19.04, Fedora 29 and CentOS 7 in one go, so for future updates it's
gonna be easier with the packaging. I may still add some other
distributions based on demand. The packaging for each of these
distributions is done in individual Docker containers, which also
really helped to get this done efficiently.
The repos list doesn't seem to show all the repos available from
our registry.
Oh, ok. Interesting. I though I'm just showing the content of the
"master repo list".
Which repos are shown on your computer and which are missing?
Yes, one repo I was thinking about has only ancient Greek: Deutche
Bibelgesellschaft
Essentially I'm just calling
installMgr->/refreshRemoteSourceConfiguration/(), then
installMgr->/saveInstallConf()/ and then I'm iterating over
/installMgr->sources/ to get the repositories.
Selecting CrossWire and choosing Greek, English, and Hebrew, I
don't see the WHNU Greek module.
Yes, I think we use grc for ancient Greek.
Yes, we include a language list in our locales installed with SWORD.
It is a pseudo-locale called "locales" and has a pretty exhaustive
list of locale codes with their native language name, along with
their English names.
So, for example, you can make calls like:
std::cout << LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr()->translate("locales", "grc")
<< " (" << LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr()->translate("locales",
"grc.en") << ")"; // should output Ἑλληνική (Ancient Greek (to 1453))
A good test tool is sword/tests/localetest:
./localetest locales grc
Noticed the eBible.org repo only shows that is has like 74 modules
available, but I think Michael has like 2000 or something :)
Currently only modules with "recognized languages" are shown.
When loading the languages I'm separating them into "known" ones and
"unknown" ones using the ISO-639-1 Javascript module.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/iso-639-1#validatecode
Only the "known" languages end up being shown in the installation
wizard. I should change that and also show the other ones below the
recognized languages in the installation wizard.
I like that I can have multiple tabs of different Bibles pointing
to different locations.
Noticed Hebrew (module: WLC) is left justified. You should be able
to key off the config entry: Direction=RtoL
Thanks for the hint! Could I do that automatically based on certain
information in that bible's *.conf file?
Yes, exactly: Direction=RtoL
Hope this is helpful,
Troy
I like that I can highlight multiple verse and then click a tag to
add them to that tag. I am not sure if they are tagged
individually, or as a group, but regardless, they all seem to be
tagged.
They are tagged individually in the database.
I am not sure how to show all the verses associated with one of my
tags.
Click on "Select tag" (next to "Select book") in the menu above the
text display area and choose one. You can also choose multiple ones.
Then click on "Select tag" again to hide that dropdown.
I notice you're not showing all the books associated with the
current module.
Yes, that's correct. At the moment the books shown is a static list.
The only thing dynamic is that within that static list Ezra Project
checks which of these books are actually available and disables the
links if they're not.
Great start! Thanks for your work! I am sure building up personal
tab libraries of Bible topics and sharing those with others can be
a wonderful way to study God's Word.
Thanks for the encouragement :). Sharing a tag library could be a
feature for the future. At the moment a "Word export" is
implemented, but that obviously is not the same as sharing a
technical database. I could implement a simple JSON or XML
export/import to support such a feature.
There's other features besides tagging that I have on my mind.
Generally I want to support the user in creating material based on
the bible that is not "separate" (like separate text documents), but
rather directly linked with the text.
Best regards,
Tobias
