How to use Treesaver for dynamic contents

[Jathon zhu]

I found the treesaver can only be used for static content.
If I want to use it in dynamic content,what am I gonna to do?

Thank you!

[Bram Stein]

Hi,

What exactly do you mean by dynamic content? With the latest changes
you should able to dynamically update the Table Of Contents and also
insert client-side generated documents (content retrieved through an
XHR.) These changes are not in an official release yet, but they are
available in the Github repository
(https://github.com/Treesaver/treesaver). If you are interested, I
could do a quick write-up on how to use it (I have to document it
anyway.)

Best regards,

Bram

Hi Bram,

I am using treesaver to develop a online news reader. it's a great
lib. Thanks for all your good work. Just let you know, I am also
interested in that how treesaver is used with dynamic content.

Zhengjun

hey it works with dynamic content very well..

[eathon zhu]

I do need to dynamically update the table of contents,so it is usefull to me if you do a quick write-up on how use it.Thank you!

[Scott Kellum]

If you wish to personalize a toc then you should do this through the
CMS, not on the front-end. Because I am unclear as to what exactly you
need to do it is hard to help.

For example, if you want to search for all articles relating to
politics then when the user clicks on the search button they should be
redirected to a publication with a server generated toc.html file
containing all the related articles.

Treesaver will not handle a "hide this section" button that cuts
content without refreshing the page. All TOC revisions will need to
happen on the server side to be pushed on page refresh.

Hi,

Sorry for the late response. I've added an example of how to use
Treesaver for dynamic content. Be aware that you will need the new (and
unreleased) version of Treesaver for this. It will not work on
treesaver-0.9.2.js. (It will most likely be in Treesaver 0.9.3.)

https://github.com/bramstein/treesaver/tree/master/examples/dynamic-toc

Have a look at the "my.js" JavaScript file, it sets up an event listener
for the LOADED event fired by the index. Once the index is loaded it
hooks up event listeners for four buttons. Each of the buttons add a new
document to the table of contents. The first three add existing
documents, while the last button dynamically inserts a new article.

For now, this only works in debug mode---I haven't exported the right
methods and events yet (minor issue.) I would love to know more about
your use case so I can decide on how much of the API to expose.

Do you get any errors or warnings in your console?

Di you mean there is nothing in the JavaScript console? The 304's in
your Apache log are normal (and not error codes), it just means the
files haven't been modified since the last time you tried to access
them. Are any of the other examples working for you?

[Pavel M]

Unfortunately no. Only blank screen.
The settings of php_value display_errors on
And I don't know the reason because I already tested previous versions
of treesaver and all were good.
Also I can't see any error in Apache logs.

Hi,

I meant your JavaScript console/debugger (like Firebug, or Chrome
developer tools.) Is there any indication of something going wrong there?

Thanks,

Bram

Testing treesaver for a hacking project and ran into this issue.

It seems that the reason the page is blank is because this file is
missing.
treesaver/src/modules.js

Also, the deps.js file from goog/closure is missing too (but for that
I could just download from
http://code.google.com/p/closure-library/source/browse/trunk/closure/goog/deps.js?r=827).

Here is the log

Ah, thanks for reporting that, it explains the earlier reports. To use
a debug build of Treesaver you will need to run the build tool
once---this will generate the `modules.js` file. If you satisfy all
the dependencies for building you can simply type `paver` on the
command line. This should solve the problem.

The deps.js file from Google Closure is actually not required: there
is an option to switch loading it off (add `window.CLOSURE_NO_DEPS =
true;` to a script tag before loading Closure/Treesaver.)

Let me know if you run into any problems,

Bram

[Ricky]

It works now. Nice. Whats the plan on making this into the proper
distribution? (for my use-case, I'm getting some dynamic data from
Facebook and other 3rd party services).
