Hi All, I'm getting into Radiant (and loving it - props all), but am wondering if anyone has some workflow suggestions for me. At the moment I'm editing pages, templates and snippets via the admin interface, but this has several problems for me: * no backups or versioning (I know versioning is on the roadmap) * no easy way to sync localhost and live copies of these files (deployment) * the browser is a sucky text editor :-)
Previously I've used Movable Type, and while Radiant makes it feel bloated and decrepit it has a wonderful feature to link CMS-managed templates to files, whereby if you change the file the database version is automatically updated and vice versa. This means I can link up templates to standard text files and use a nice text editor/ svn for backup/rsync for deployment. Is anyone working on a plugin for this, or is there any thought to include this down the road? I came across a hint about using SQLite and just uploading the database file for deployment, but I'm wanting something that'll work with MySQL. Alternatively does anyone have any other workflow suggestions for developing sites in Radiant? I'd love to hear them! At least it's not taking forever rebuilding a ton of static files like MT used to when editing templates via the browser huh ;-) peace - oli _______________________________________________ Radiant mailing list Post: [email protected] Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant
