TI-Nspire Lua API
« on: April 14, 2011, 06:48:05 pm »
We have started making an API to document all of the new commands adriweb has found for our Nspires

Adriweb has started a google docs for it here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qsExH5xZKx73mShdI8B8eA1ZCcmmZZnJ9TzrLwvKKFM/edit?hl=fr&authkey=CIGfyZQN Until it is "finished" I think we will leave it there(up to youy guys).

Right now all I've done is copy over the default stuff rom the Lua Docs

Edited it a bit to make the link clickable :)

Nice! These little PDFs are what the community needs more of :D

EDIT: Maybe you should make the document editable only by specific people so it doesn't get hacked by random guests?

I don't use gogle code much so that is probably something we should ask adriweb to do.

But then it's a pain to manage who has and who has't the access :/

Eh, or maybe keep backups every day. Just in case.

Google Docs does keep backups, but it might become confusing with >9000 different backups every hour.

Thank you for your hard work. :)

But it seems only Google registered users can view it :(
Couldn't you find a better place?

Adriweb made It. If you find a better place I'm sure we could transfer over to that. Right now I kind of like what we have, but there is always something better

Nope, it's set as "Editable for anyone with the link (not even connected)", so should be good for everybody :)

By clicking your link, I'm being asked for a Google login & password.
That's what I was referring to.

Is it so horrible to have one? It's free, and you have one for everything.

Yay for an API! Now I don't have to worry about what commands to use!

Well, its not so much that critor can't make a google account, but if others come across that link in hopes of programming on the Nspire, and are prompted for a password without an account, they might be discouraged and give up trying to get more information.  I personally hate having to log into UTI every time I need to download something from there. :(

That's not the question.

You don't have to register on Omnimaga to read the posts.
Why would you have to register on Google to view this document?


And I have a Google account.
I'm just thinking to people who don't have such an account.
Registering might be free but:
- maybe they don't want to register (they have the right, and there are good reasons for that... FaceBook is free too you know... free doesn't mean wonderfull..)
- registering is laborious (there's a captcha which is hard to read, you need a valid email, ...)


A wiki would probably be a much better idea, and would be really "free". Such an important documentation does deserve a wiki. I'm sure the community would be happy to host that.

What about Hackspire? Much of the technical information on the TI-Nspire is currently hosted there.
It can be viewed without account, and includes human and bot moderation.

I agree with Extended, it could be all there, in HackSpire.
