Gaelyk 0.4.2 is out too :-)

[Guillaume Laforge]

Hi all,

I couldn't stop working on Gaelyk, and I felt I had to do a couple more things:

• first of all, fixing the issue with encodings when using the caching system,
• and also providing an example of blobstore usage, which lead me to add more cool stuff for the blobstore.

So here is version 0.4.2 of Gaelyk!

You can download it here:

When using the caching system, your accentuated characters, your unicode characters were not rendered correctly, because of some issues with the encoding, how the content was stored in the cache.

This should now be resolved.

With regards to caching, Gaelyk now makes the assumption that your templates and groovlets are UTF-8 encoded.

As someone recently reported some issues with the blobstore, I decided to investigate further.

I noticed two things:

1. You can't have the blobstore forward the blob upload request to a URL which is behind a URL route, so instead, when you create an upload URL with the blobstoreService, make sure to point to a direct URL. But that's okay, as that URL is never shown directly to the user anyway.
2. It is possible to use a groovlet to deal with the uploaded blob, unlike what was reported recently on the group, so I decided to provide a sample explaning the various steps on how to use the blobstore from Gaelyk.

Be sure to have a look at the updated tutorial, as it gives a bunch of explanations on the new blobstore support!

Enjoy and have fun!

PS: and if you're brave enough, please have a look at the caching support to tell me how to solve the "jumbling" includes issue when caching is activated, I would really appreciate your help here :-)
