[sword-devel] Module upload: JapDenmo

[DM Smith]

I’m very encourage that there’s lots of interest in the module making process. If I can help maintain that momentum, I will.

I’ve privately asked Peter, in response to his lament about the problem, for specific things he wants fixed. I have not heard back from him. It is now early morning for me on the weekend and I’m able to help. At least for a few hours.

There has always been a lag of a day from when a module is “published” to when it is available to all of SWORD, PocketSword and JSword.

I got your email less than 2 hours after announcement. Wait 2 days for it to be fully published.

There are several parts to this:
The email is published the moment that the module is put in mods.d and module.
Daily mods.d.tar.gz is rebuilt with the listing of mods.d.
The module is zipped when a user requests the download via the website’s listing of modules.
The indexes for PocketSword and AndBible are built on a daily basis.
The module sizes are updated into the conf daily.
The host and guest repositories are synchronized daily.
Front end users only know of the module when they refresh their module listing.

Note, the day lag has always been hit by JSword and noticed every now and then, but we’ve lived with it as long as JSword has been around. It only uses the compressed files.

I think your question really is, “When is 'status quo' going to be achieved?” The answer is “Not today, tomorrow or this week.” So, thus my question back to Peter, "What can we do in the meantime?”

I also, don’t like where we were before we had a split server and would like to solve that as well. But it’s not going to happen soon, either.
