HashBin now available in open-source flavor

Our first violin missed his plane yesterday, so Kwatuor is still not available in the upcoming unusable buggy pre-alpha (that miss all the functionalities anyway).

But while we're waiting for him to be available, I released HashBin in open-source, so anybody can dive into the code, and help me making it evolve. It still needs many attention, but hey, time is not the most available resource I have, and that's one of the two major reasons to give it to the community. Another one is that there is not so much open source symfony applications, and even less open source doctrine applications. After the doctrine 1.0 feature-freeze announcement, this could be a step to have simple sample applications (I hear little sarcastic laughs in the background...) people could dive in to learn this amazing ORM.

Well stop talking, here is the code.

SVN access is read-only for anyone, if you ever want to contribute, I'll be glad to grant you a commit access either on trunk or branch (still have to make up my mind, but at beginning that's not very important). Just ask me on IRC (hartym@freenode).

What amazing feature will you invent today?

Tired of spam? Try dkAntispamPlugin

After last week hashbin's new release, I decided to publish dkAntispamPlugin. That's an early release, and by now it is not very feature-full, but it's doing the job we ask it, and since now, proved efficient on HashBin to make not public the pretty large amount of spam I get on it.

In One week, we got 40 messages with spam_value<10 (all checked, no spam), 14 more with spam_value<20, some of those were not spam but either inconsistent, or URL-full, 97 more between 20 and 50 (100% spam) and 498 more over this, which i'll consider as spam (don't really feel like reviewing all those).

For now, the plug-in only makes some reg-exp check, length check and URL count checks, but I'm planning in adding IP check and refining reg-exps to be less CPU eating. If any of you have anymore ideas to improve it... You're all welcome :-)

At the same time, I refactored sfGeshiPlugin to dkGeshiPlugin, to leave sf prefix for official symfony plugins, so be sure to check the wiki or documentation if you're using it.

Hashbin v3 just went to public beta

I'm proud to annouce that HashBin v3 is out, using the latest improvements to dkGeshi (old sfGeshi, soon public) and the brand new dkAntispamPlugin, which can give a text a note about its probability of being spam, or junk. If everything goes well with hashbin, and after some required (i guess) tuning to the plugin, it will go opensource to let you take advantage of it.

For thoose who never used it, HashBin is a free PasteBin service, a collaborative debugging tool allowing developpers to share source code snippets. Hashbin is powered by the Symfony Framework and PHP Doctrine ORM.
