Re: Homebrew Package Update Notifications on Mountain Lion

Instead of using `gem`, I'd use homebrew to install the terminal-notifier.

brew install terminal-notifier

Yep, no need to run as root. Just whatever user you want to update as.

Does this need to run as root? It seems like it should work fine if you just run ``crontab -e``, right?

Hi,

Can you tell me how to get this plugin ? Github does not show any download options as far as I can see

@SP, I actually used my larger camera for all of these, but you could easily do it with a smaller camera! And thanks!

Your pics here and on Flickr are amazing! That's not with that small point and shoot you recommended to me is it? Regards, you have a sharp eye for framing a nice shot. At long distance running while there? ;) samantha

Great info. Now, if only we could get you to figure out the difference between "its" and "it's"!! :-)

I really like your blog post. It's fun to head out to a place you only have an inkling of an idea about, there's lots of room for discovery and adventure that way!

Hi Chris,
Fantastic Plugin you have here, a definate UPGRADE from the solution I've been using up until now.
I have one request though.

At
the moment, your uploader seems to have the file's Version Name
inserted in the Caption field once it's uploaded to Facebook.
Is there a way I can pull the information from Aperture's "Caption" field in the Metadata on my end or is it something that needs attention behind the scenes?

also, are there any plans to add the ability to add location information to the album upon upload?

Regards,

We haven't added that feature yet, though it could be something we do add.

This is great and works really well! (thank you!!) One question, I am trying to upload pictures directly to Facebook for an event. It's a "page" that I manage - is there a way to choose an album for that page instead of my personal page to upload photos? Thanks!!!

Ok, well glad you got it to work, and sorry for the hacking!

Nope, somehow 1.3 missed this option. I twizzled SUEnableAutomaticChecks to FALSE (0) but it still asks to be updated. I managed to stifle the nag (for the time being) by setting the bundle version fields to 1.4.

Re: Facebook Exporter for Aperture

Chris Streeter — Fri, 11 Jan 2013 21:40:05 -0000

I thought the upgrade notification should have an ignore updates option?

You could change the value of SUEnableAutomaticChecks in the Info.plist for the plugin to false. That should turn off the automatic update check.

As for the preferences button, it's just a placeholder for now :)

Also, no Preference pane opens when I click the button - are there some useful settings I'm missing there?

Thanks Chris - I went back and tried all the available versions, and v1.3 works pretty well for me on MacOS10.6.8 and Aperture 3.2.4. There is a bit of flakiness around the selection of FB albums to upload to, but I'm pretty sure that issue is on FB's end.

If I upload and create a new album simultaneously, then check the plugin box to open the album in Safari, it will pretty consistently hang Aperture (the export doesn't "complete" and requires a Force-Quit) even though the album is created and the images are uploaded successfully.

The only really annoying thing is the "upgrade to 1.4" nag dialog which doesn't seem to be disable-able. Is there a .plist entry I could toggle to prevent this?

I actually don't remember if any of the versions run on Snow Leopard. Because of a change on GitHub, we had to move the downloads to bitbucket. You can see if any of the old versions work: https://bitbucket.org/stree...

I assume that they all work on Aperture 3 and up, though again, I can't remember.

Hope that helps!

Bummer, I'm on 10.6.8 and didn't realize I needed 10.7 to run this. Any downrev versions that would run on SL?

And is there also a minimum Aperture version? I'm on 3.2.4.

Thanks,
Steve
