Some bugfixing and behind the scenes work.

Replaced the old templating with HAML. Mainly because I wanted to give it a try. I like the cleanliness of it, and it is already starting to grow on me. 

Searching a second time replaces the original results now. If you liked the old behavior better (it was an oversite) feel free to muck around in the application.js. It’s rather easy to find.

As requested, I’ve implemented a category search filter for hellaphone. Neither the keyword, nor the category is required, but both will filter the results. It’s up in github

search with category

The new hellaphone at github can now monitor the queue and updates the progress. More to come soon.

What’s on the immediate horizon:

  • Look and feel updates
  • Slimming down the code for less to download
  • Ability to reorder, pause, and delete from the queue

New release of hellaphone. I scrapped the old code, got rid of cakephp, rolled a lighter, custom framework. Got rid of the installation troublesome mod_rewrite dependancy that cakephp required. I may even end up with a super light MVC after it’s all done. Grab a copy at Github here.

Almost as soon as I announce that I was going to stop working on Hellaphone, I start using newsgroups again and start on the project. Partly because I keep getting emailed how to set it up. I didn’t spend any time creating an installer when I released it. In fact I hacked it up real quick to be a single user system.

I always planned on releasing it as a service, but became dis-interested and open sourced it. So now I’m concentrating on bringing the service up again. The project is still open and located at http://code.google.com/p/hellaphone . Check it out, contribute, or just use it.

(Update) There is a newer git repository at http://github.com/buck2769/hellaphone/. This is being actively developed.

HellaNZB.com linked me up on their home page and I’ve started to receive a lot of interest in HellaPhone. I’ve decided to make some time to further complete HellaPhone and add functionality that I wanted. Since I created HellaPhone a few things have changed. The most important one is the introduction of iui. This will help greatly in bringing some interface improvements that I wanted to do the first time around.

I plan on adding live monitoring for the downloads and queues of HellaNZB. That is my primary goal. At some point in the future I would like to be able to support all mobile devices, but I don’t have the time nor the equipment to test with at the moment.

If anyone has any suggestions or features they would like to see, please drop me a line and let me know.

HellaPhone 

I currently use hellanzb for all of my usenet downloads. It’s much simpler than anything I have used before and is a simple install. Very simple if you are on a Debian (Ubuntu), or Darwin System (Mac OS X).I developed this interface for my own personal use and nothing more. That being said, there is very little error checking if any, and even less error reporting in the interface. I planned on releasing this when it is more complete, but I have not had the time to spend on it due to other projects that put food on my table. The app does work pretty well for a quick newzbin search and download to your existing hellanzb install. It just doesn’t monitor the downloads or report an error if the download doesn’t initiate. I planned on rectifying that at some future date.The requirements are:

  •  php5
  • cakephp 1.2.x
  • allow_url_open – (maybe, I may have changed it to curl, can’t remember, don’t care)
  • hellanzb install with allowed network access
  • newzbin account

If enough people show interest I may make time to work on it some more. Please, if you are interested in upgrading or continuing work on this project, Leave it in the comments. And of course donations are always welcome. Download from the HellaPhone page  Some screenshotshellaphone.jpg picture-3.jpg picture-4.jpgpicture-5.jpg
