Thanks Ale,

I will look into doing that… in case the original maintainer of the bundle doesn't feel like he wants to do it himself.

Is there a way to also acceept dragged URLs from other apps and have them be treated as such?

Both Brad Choate and I would love a patch for this :) FYI you can use * as extension for a new drag command, then it gets all the drops not handled by the image drag command.

Currently not, no.

This just needs a couple of tweaks. First, the upload_name_for_path should be rewritten for this purpose to preserve the filename whenever possible, replace Upload Image in the dialog box with Upload File, and indicate that the text entered will be the text of the URL. The HTML portion that you've included is incorrect and needs to be something more like: print %Q{<a href="#{url}">#{alt}</a>}. Alt could come back as just plain text without underscores or anything and there's no need for width and height.

Your def is also missing two end statements at the end of it... just for reference ;-).

I also think that, for the sake of inclusiveness, the command should be scoped to handle just about anything besides images but ask first before uploading with a quick yes/no dialog.

I've got a working version right now but am adding some of the above ideas. If anyone is interested I'll tweak it up and send it along to add to the discussion.

Hello Allan,

I don't know about patches, but this will, at least upload files and insert Markdown/<a href> links to the uploaded file… I don't know about textile, so feel free to add that. Of course, it would be much more clean if one had just one method for uploading but the hack works, I believe.

As for the dragged URLs: this would need to be done on a TextMate level, but the dragged item should be noted as URL by the OS, and as such we would just need some mechanism for accepting it ;) I guess it would take Allan about -56 seconds to do so, and yes I have read the "bug reporting how to" by ranchero.com ;)

Just add this to blogging.rb

def upload_file require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/progress.rb" require "#{ENV['TM_SUPPORT_PATH']}/lib/escape.rb" require 'xmlrpc/base64'

# Makes sure endpoint is determined and elements are parsed
current_password = password

# The packet we will be constructing
data = {}

full_path = ENV['TM_DROPPED_FILEPATH']
upload_name, alt = upload_name_for_path(full_path)

data['name'] = upload_name
data['bits'] = XMLRPC::Base64.new(IO.read(full_path))

TextMate.call_with_progress(:title => "Upload File", :message  

=> "Uploading to Server “#{@host}”…") do begin result = client.newMediaObject(self.blog_id, self.username, current_password, data) url = result['url'] if url case ENV['TM_SCOPE'] when /.markdown/ print "[${1:#{alt}}](#{url})" else print %Q{<a href="#{url}" alt="${1:#{CGI::escapeHTML alt}}"#{height_width}#{ENV['TM_XHTML']}>} end else TextMate.exit_show_tool_tip("Error uploading file.") end rescue XMLRPC::FaultException => e TextMate.exit_show_tool_tip("Error uploading file. Check your configuration and try again.") end

I'm probably being daft about something, but could someone take a look at my modification to blogging.rb and tell me why it errors out on different files? It seems to deal alright with small zip files, but files of type dmg or tbz or anything other than zip, or files larger than about 500k cause a variety of errors. I'm not sure if the problem lies with Wordpress or my methods.

Thanks for any help.

Update for those interested: I registered the offending MIME types with Wordpress and cured some of the errors. For example, setting DMG files to application/octet-stream in Wordpress allowed me to upload smaller DMG files without getting the FaultException from XMLRPC.

I've noticed that in bloggin.rb it never sets the data type before the newMediaObject call. Everything I can find says that this is a required field. What happens when it's not set? Can you force it to ignore or set it to a default? I attempted to add a MIME::Types library and determine the type but it didn't make a difference to Wordpress.

I'm still getting the last error on large files. The upload limit on my server is set to 20 megs, but I think I'm running into a timeout. I can issue a set_time_limit(1000) in the xmlrpc.php file right before the upload, which seems to override it for a couple of minutes but I still get the error, so I'm not sure that the timeout is the answer. If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.

In short, while I'd love to see this working and a part of the blogging bundle, if it requires this much server hacking I think I'll stick with my usual method of FTP and hand coding links. Actually, it would be relatively simple to set up a Transmit script to send to your wordpress upload folder and then build a drag command to upload the dropped file with docksend and return a url based on the upload directory...
