here are some stuff that doesn't seem to work in my pc:

Hi OSdave,

Again, thanks for taking the time to give feedback. Do not hesitate to create one issue/ticket per question. It will help other people looking for something specific and prevent clutter.

  1. Hints on I've found a few situations where it doesn't work (which depend on themes are configured). Does turning on hints by hand in the back-end do it?
  2. Empty lateral tabs They only show content when you click on one of the elements in the hints. From a usability pov, they shouldn't be displayed until you click on the hints.
  3. Animation effects The effect uses CSS3 animations for that and, since they still require browser specific properties, I have only been focusing on Chrome. Once the interface gets closer to v1.0, everything will be implemented in as many browsers as possible.
  4. Newer versions of Magento Absolutely! It might even work now. We want it to be backward compatible with 1.4.2 so I started there, but I hope to have 1.5 compatible version for milestone 1 (due Friday July 1st)
  5. Execute PHP Well, execute PHP dumps "echo" and "return" to the console (if you're in Chrome, apply this patch: http://www.magentocommerce.com/bug-tracking/issue?issue=11312)

So, I use it for things like this:

return print_r(get_class_methods($someMagentoObject), true);

OR

Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load('MYSKU')->doSomething();

Hi jonathan, I have created another issue (https://github.com/DoghouseMedia/Dhmedia_Devel--Magento-Developer-Tools-/issues/2) for the "hints on" bug, as it is the only real bug of this list.

I've been able to see the "editor" and "blocks" tabs in action now, and I love it!!! I understand the use of the "execute php" and I can see how handy it is.

I'll try to install it on a 1.5.x install later on, I'll keep you posted.

OSdave commented 13 years ago

it's me again :) I'm sorry to say that nothing happens on a 1.5.0.1. I've installed the extension through magentoconnect, logged out/in, empty cache but nor the lateral tabs neither the header's links appear in the frontend. The files are there, the module shows up in the advanced-system-configuration tab, logs are clear.

Too bad, I can't wait to use it!

jonathan-dh commented 13 years ago

Glad you like what you see! I'm very excited too! :)

I've just tried the extension using github and it works fine on 1.5! Great news!

Unfortunately, it seems like the package on MagentoConnect is missing some files (I might have messed up the packaging, but we didn't see it on update since it had the previous files).

You can either wait for about 12 hours untill I can package it up tomorrow, or copy the following folders from your 1.4 install:

app/design/frontend/default/default/template/devel/ app/design/frontend/default/default/layout/devel/

That should be enough.

I'll close this ticket now. Just re-open it if tomorrow's release doesn't fix it.

OSdave commented 13 years ago

I copied those 2 folders and then the header links and the lateral tabs showed up, but the frontend hints behave like they always did (ie, they only show the template file and class, I can't click on them as your extension in a 1.4.2 install allows). So I waited for the magentoconnect release, I updated, cleared cache, but no luck, I still can't click the hints :(

So I've just downloaded the master version from here, and compare it with what I had in my 1.5.0.1: The code/local/Mage/ was missing. also, to be sure to have the last version, I replaced what there was in my 1.5.0.1 with what came in the github-downloaded .tar.gz.

And tadaaam, now it's working :-) this is great job man! I'm loving it already. I'll keep posting bug if I find any. Don't hesitate to tell me if I an do anything help you with this.

keep up the good job!

jonathan-dh commented 13 years ago

Glad you got it working!

I hope to package up the latest changes and release an update sometime this weekend. It's mainly a cosmetic release (refactoring, beutifying, etc) but should be followed by some new functionality!

For now, I'm working on the issue list for milestone 1: https://github.com/DoghouseMedia/Dhmedia_Devel--Magento-Developer-Tools-/issues?sort=created&direction=desc&state=open&page=1&milestone=1

The new release should fix the install issue (does for me at least).
