development tasks

Here are the tasks for the Workstation agent. Pick one, and put your signature next to it. Strike it off the list when done.

== LinuxMCE Specific Tasks ==

* Create the Device Templates for the Linux, Windows, and Mac workstations. --[[User:Tschak909|Tschak909]] 01:55, 9 April 2011 (CEST)
* Finish the Workstation Media Player --[[User:Tschak909|Tschak909]] 01:55, 9 April 2011 (CEST)

== Windows Specific Tasks ==

* Write a script or application that calls MessageSend with MH Play Media, and a path to the media. This path would look like the path from a Linux machine, as the Media Player will translate this path internally.
* Make a file association that calls this script for media files that VLC can play (this needs to be done for ALL the file types that VLC can play)

== Linux Specific Tasks ==

* Write a script or application that calls MessageSend with MH Play Media, and a path to the media.
* Make a file association that calls this script for media files that VLC can play, for GNOME and KDE (xdg? freedesktop? is there a standard way to do this? find out.)

== Installation Package Tasks ==

It is '''IMPERATIVE''' that there is only a single installation package, with everything needed for the workstation agent to work. No Buts.

These tasks need to be done for (mark responsibility for the platforms below):

* Windows (somebody take responsibility)
* Linux (somebody take responsibility)

* Package VideoLan Client from source and fold into the Installation package.
* Package The Orbiter executable from TSCHAK and fold in.
* Package the App server executable
* Package the Workstation Agent Executable
* Package the MessageSend executable
* Make a script that creates shares to the public shares at installation.

Things to still deal with

* Making code to spawn the web browser in response to a URL from LinuxMCE to Workstation.
* Making code to spawn the web browser in response to a URL from Workstation to LinuxMCE.
* Handling file shares to user shares dynamically in response to a PIN # being entered.
