- As I spent all last week rewriting a big part of Old School, the details of how that piece of software are swapped into my brain. So I'm going to focus there for a while, to do some things that should be done but require a comfort level that I don't usually have wrt this fairly complex piece of software. #
- What's new --#
- Old School returns more data about what files it built.#
- The number of secs it returned previously was not accurate. Now the number of seconds is closer to reality. Old School isn't quite as fast as it used to appear. #
- It returns the version of Old School. This is helpful for everyone to debug wtf is going on. Sometimes we're running an old version. #
- It also returns the head-level atts from your OPML file. It's a way to do a reality check if you're trying to debug weird behavior. Maybe something was wrong in your head level atts? It's worth checking out. #
- Updated the oldSchool.buildBlog verb. #
- It now takes an optional boolean parameter saying whether you want the full data Old School returns or not.#
- If it's false or not provided, the verb returns the URL of the blog, as before (no breakage).#
- The data Old School returns is pretty fantastic if you ask me. ;-)#
