Subversion Access

Subversion Access

This page is for developers or those of you who like living on the edge.

A warning to everyone, using the main development version from our Subversion repositories (commonly known as the trunk) can (and probably will) break your website.

Each of our projects has it's own Subversion repository, they are listed below for easy access.

What is Subversion?

Subversion is a source control system that allows us to keep track of changes to the code in our software and to roll back any changes that we are not happy with.

You can get hold of a free book about Subversion here. If you are going to play around with source control, then it is well worth a read.

What do I need to access a Subversion respository?

Well, the first thing you need is a Subversion client installed on your computer. You can find links to a number of free clients at the Subversion site.

The section below assumes that you are using the command line version of Subversion to download the plugins from our servers. If you are using a different Subversion client then ignore the svn co part of the line and use the URL at the end of the line in your client. Ensure that you are in the directory you want the plugins downloaded into.

Note: These commands will not create the required top level directories (such as clearskys or mydashboard) so please follow the standard installation instructions to see what the directory should be, create it and then use the commands below whilst you are in the new directory.

Keeping your version up to date

After you have downloaded the latest version of the software once you can get the latest changes by going to the directory the plugin is stored in and entering the command:

Other small plugins

Sometimes we will release a small plugin that isn't going to need a full repository for itself, in this case the code will be held in a sub-directory of the main development trunk. If you navigate to the following web address:

http://clearskys-miscplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/

and you will be able to see all of the plugins available. Simply add the directory name for the plugin you are interested in to the end of the URL below (replacing plugin name here) to grab just that single plugin:
