NotesIn9 150: Announcing fileVault for XPages

This is a different show today.  I’m going to be speaking at MWLug at the end of August.  In this show I’m going to do a little demo of what I intended to present at MWLug.  I’m not going to tell you HOW to do it yet, you’ll need to come to see that.  Or wait for it to hit a future NotesIn9.

In addition to the commercial, I’ve taken a small clip from my show 100 (which ran WAY too long).  In this clip I give suggestions on how to get more involved in the XPages community and why you might want to.  At the end I refute any excuses that you might have.

 

Hope you like the show.

NotesIn9 149: Database Resources and Design Definition

In this show IBM Champion and everyone’s second favorite Doctor returns to NotesIn9.  That’s right, Dr. Marky Roden is in the house with a GREAT tip on ways to speed up Domino Designer by using Design Definition to better control your database resources.

We last saw the good Doctor back on September 13th, 2012, Episode 74,  talking about using jQuery. Don’t miss todays demo.  You never know if he’ll disappear for another 684 days again.

===

Also yesterday I mentioned that this month is the 5 year anniversary of NotesIn9. I just want to thank everyone for all the nice messages, comments, and even a blog post.  It means a lot and is very appreciated!

Thank You!

UPDATE:  The Audio for Marky’s demo isn’t great.  I’m pretty sure I messed that up in the processing of the video.

NotesIn9 148: Getting XPages to talk to your phone

Today we get another great contributor in the form of Oliver Busse. His website is oliverbusse.com.  He’s going to do a really neat demo of how to intergrate XPages with Pushover.net to send messages to a phone that has the PushOver App installed.

I think that it’s always nice to see how to mix XPages with other services.

NotesIn9 147: Using dGrowl with XPages

In this show Brad Balassaitis returns to Ni9 to give us some great instruction on how to start using the “dGrowl” project with our XPages applications.  This is a tool that lets you popup messages back to the user. It’s a somewhat common effect and I really really like it.  Actually before I got this demo from him I was attempting to do something similar inside Bootstrap4XPages and now I might try and switch to dGrowl for the additional features.

In addition to using dGrowl there’s great information on installing the dojo plugin that could apply to adding other plugins to your applications as well.

 

UPDATE:  Brad’s made a blog post on enhancing this even further.

UPDATE 2:

Here are some additional posts on getting this type of effect in XPages

NotesIn9 146: Going Mobile with Bootstrap

In this show, we get another great new contributor joining the NotesIn9 family.  Please welcome Shean P McManus to the show. His blog is: http://spmcmanus.net  I’m really excited to get Shean on as he gives us a great demo on using Bootstrap for an XPages mobile focused application.

Shean manually added Bootstrap to his application.  Another option is to use a great project on OpenNTF to do this for you via an update site.

http://bootstrap4xpages.openntf.org/

http://bootstrap4xpages.com/

Also check out Oliver Busse’s work and Bootstap template: http://mardou.dyndns.org/hp.nsf/index.xsp

In the beginning of the show I mentioned a, hopefully, future contributor. Greg Reeder.  Check out his blog here:  http://reederprogramming.com/  He’s starting a video series that’s basically a “Build an XPages app meets Intro to Java”.  The first video is here:  http://XPag.es/?1DEE  I highly recommend you check that series out.

P.S.  Sorry it’s been a while between shows. I have several more in the queue so stay tuned!!

NotesIn9 145: Simple Feedback in XPages

This is the last show I have from Tim Tripcony.  This is probably the simpliest demo he’s done for Ni9 but no less important.  It’s a demo of a way to return a message to a user based on an action.

Tim actually gave me this demo maybe a year ago and I just totally forgot about it and I assume he then did as well. While I hate the thought of forgetting about it I think it makes this show a little special.  I was so happy to discover it when I went through our shared dropbox.

NotesIn9 144: OAuth for Domino Walkthrough

In this show Tim Tripcony explains how to get your Domino server to PROVIDE OAuth credentials and services.

Note: This show is a odd resolution because Tim sent me his demo at a bigger size then normal.  Because of this I’m not sure if it will play on mobile devices.

NotesIn9 143: Component vs Value binding in XPages

In this show Tim Tripcony explains that while we’ve typically been binding to a value all this time, it’s possible to bind to a component inside your XPages Development.

This show was originally published elsewhere and I basically grabbed this to try and improve the visibility and get Tim’s information as much exposure as possible.

I have 2 new unpublished videos from Tim coming next.

NotesIn9 142: Adding a Please Wait to XPages

In this show it’s back to XPages and demos!  I will do a quick recap on the last show as 141 seemed REALLY popular but then it’s back to work.  In this show I demo a quick tip on how you can use CLIENT SIDE JavaScript to show the user the server is processing.

UPDATE:

Fredrik Norling (@XPageDeveloper)  tweeted me a link to an OpenNTF Snippet designed to handle Partial Refreshes:

http://openntf.org/XSnippets.nsf/snippet.xsp?id=standby-dialog-custom-control

Also, Eric Tomenga sent me a nice email with even another solution.  This one looks like it uses the Ext. Library.

http://xpagesera.blogspot.com/2012/05/add-ajax-loading-control-in-xpages-for.html

I actually did look for a jQuery version as well since I’m using this inside the Bootstrap project.  I couldn’t find one but I’m sure there’s something out there.

I do love having options.

NotesIn9 141: Java vs JavaScript Throwdown

This is a VERY DIFFERENT NotesIn9.  It’s less of a normal show and more if a response to a recent blog post regarding one persons opinion on the value of Java in XPages and the Value of the UI vs the backend. Actually this show is more of a really long “rant”.

This show could absolutely suck.  I pretty much broke all my rules and tried to have fun with it.  I do give my thoughts on things so maybe there’s at least a little value there.

There’s no Demo.  There is only the trainwreck.

I would say that if you do give it a shot.  Stick around for the end. That’s when I get my most immature.  For the first time ever there’s even a few bloopers at the very end.  No not me, but one of the cast members.

I want to thank Mark Roden for the original post.  Please check out the comments.  There’s a lot of good information in there.  Here’s the shortlink:

I hope you like it.
