Using Growl for SVN Notices

Posted by kev Fri, 10 Feb 2006 05:50:00 GMT

We’re an all Mac office at Mingle, so I thought it might be nice to recieve updates to svn (commit messages and such) via Growl.

I’ve hacked together a little script to do just that. Right now I think there’s a bug in DNS-SD which keeps me from searching for people running growl, but searching for peole on iChat (on Bonjour) is fine. I’m going to test it at work tomorrow, clean up the code a bit, and you should have a screencast and code sometime this weekend if I can fix the bug with DNS-SD.

    Dick, You know, I do.. I’ve been typing that all night on accident.

    Is that why you haven’t been able to get it working yet?

    I hope you can get it working. I don’t use growl, but it would be cool to modify the code to just send jabber messages instead.

    Phil: No, my code says DNSSD (YES!) correctly. Growl’s textfield appears to be sending invalid data, or DNSDDSNSD just can’t handle it.
