Elektra now uses the libelektra.org domain again. The ftp server can be found at: ftp://ftp.libelektra.org/elektra http://www.libelektra.org/ftp/elektra/ The API documentation is now online at: http://doc.libelektra.org/api/current/html/ Still missing is a bug tracker, build server and an automatic ABI compatibility checker. But that should be ok for now. best regards Markus About Elektra ----------------- Elektra provides a universal and secure framework to store configuration parameters in a global, hierarchical key database. The core is a small library implemented in C. The plugin-based framework fulfills many configuration-related tasks to avoid any unnecessary code duplication across applications while it still allows the core to stay without any external dependency. Elektra abstracts from cross-platform-related issues with an consistent API, and allows applications to be aware of other applications' configurations, leveraging easy application integration. -------------------------</pre> Markus Raab 2012-05-13T20:55:16 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.elektra.devel/728 <pre>Finally it is done, 0.8.0 is finished. Even though it has a very similar API to 0.7.0 (see APICHANGES) the implementation changed paradigm-shifting. 0.8.0 introduces a completely new plugin framework, which allows you to check types and structure of the keys, notify by dbus, log to syslog, change the way how filenames are resolved and change the configuration format and files at runtime. The C-API, like defined in src/include/kdb.h and also the one to plugins, as defined in src/include/kdbplugin.h are considered to be stable within this 0.8.0 release. Elektra has a new presence at freedesktop, see http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Elektra Download it from: http://www.markus-raab.org/ftp/elektra/releases/elektra-0.8.0.tar.gz ftp://www.markus-raab.org/elektra/releases/elektra-0.8.0.tar.gz name: elektra-0.8.0.tar.gz size: 856722 md5sum: f974f4336e32ce71d6b2b34caacfe242 sha1: d4f7f73e07d6a7372b878b5d46c61097bee71559 sha256: e23c97b7e6325255ad7c486e8406d0f228217952f573b7c777feca1964a7eefe The gi</pre> Markus Raab 2012-05-05T18:32:42 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.elektra.devel/723 <pre>hello, what about the latest of elektra?

Looking at the mailing list I'm right to assume this project is still active, correct? Also, how many projects are currently using Elektra?

Now the first (small) external application (next to the examples in the source tree) use Elektra: dfc - Display from Collection Get it: git clone git://www.markus-raab.org/git/dfc To make it work elektra now installs all header files and a FindElektra.cmake module properly. dfc is basically a replacement for fortunes, with more database formats and configurable data sources with different profiles. See README for more details. Everything is in prealpha state, so dont expect it to work on any other system then Debian :-) If you try it, please report if it works. best regards Markus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Software Download: Index, Search &amp; Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.

I would like to be able to load the configuration of a backend from a file instead of going thou a long interactive mount cycle. while it may seem simple in some case to just type everything in IMHO i don't think the average user or even a developer going to want to do this( I know I don't).  I think it would be wise to put the info into a file witch can be import into elektra. 2.)  I would like rename the mount command to backend      I think most of the current code deal with createing a backend 3.) move all the current mount code to a function call wizard(except for the action part  and output mtab stuff) 4.) add additional arguments to mount As state</pre> Joseph Stein 2011-02-06T13:15:47 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.elektra.devel/703 <pre>Hey folks, did you see this?

After a long period of silence - during which I worked on my thesis - I am glad to present the results. You can download the thesis (6,4MB, english) per ftp or http: ftp://markus-raab.org/elektra/thesis.pdf http://www.markus-raab.org/ftp/elektra/thesis.pdf It describes how I changed the semantics and architecture of Elektra so that Elektra now can store configuration in a much more flexible and robust way. But some work is left before I can release it. The web page, the bug tracking system and the current "blog" system are very unsatisfying. I need better solutions there to make this environment easy to use and suitable for a community project. If you have ideas or plan to contribute, please do not hesitate. Elektra now switched completely to git. But there are some author IDs broken that I would like to fix before I annouce it. If you don't care about a reclone, mail me and I will send you the current git url.

It appears that openSUSE-11.2 can not build Elektra due to certain options. The reason is mentioned here: http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Fixing To repeat try: $ LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed" ./configure To fix: exchange the link order in src/kdb/Makefile.am . To help me: automake does not work here due to a version missmatch. May I kindly ask that someone with the build environment take this issue over and best provide a patch or a new source package (tar.gz). A initial patch is attached. But I can not verify if it fixes the issue after running automake: configure.ac:430: required file `./config.rpath' not found kind regards Kai-Uwe Behrmann </pre> Kai-Uwe Behrmann 2010-04-26T14:43:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.elektra.devel/671 <pre>Hi, I am trying to create a debian source package for an unofficial Ubuntu repository.
