hi everyone

morning

Morning guys

hey @Shaneis

hey @AndyK!

final day today before holidays :)

it will be tomo for me

@AndyK bye ...

@AndyK morning lol

hey @War !!!

sup man ?

:)))

this n that

sounds like an ok day, War...

hope things are not too tough at your end

well no more than usual I suppose

started to work out my UI framework, it's turning in to a full blown CMS

gotten stupid now with all the new requirements

but I did figure out how to heirarchy queries on my API that heirarchically follow the rules properly

i had this weird problem where I couldfilter the base set but then not the sub queries

found this EF thing that allows me to filter based on entity type, so any time an entity of a given type is seen it applies the correct security rule to it

@War, do you know Santa?

not personally but i'm sure mom did some really sordid things with him once (honest)

@War 1). bahahahaha! 2). Damn, I was hoping you knew him. I really want more blogs to read as a Christmas present but I can't find any

:)

@Shaneis haha, yeh I know ... I have a big plan coming together

the bosses wife manages peoples social marketing and wants a blogging platform with social links / integration built so i'm thinking that becomes a bit less "pet project" and a bit more "work project" that might push me to get the job done

hoping that early next year I can get something up ... i'm working on core CMS functionality right now, things like generating menus, site maps, navigation structures, dynamic url handling, re-writes / routing

the most complex bits at least are sorted (e.g. security) but I have a piece around generic component modelling I want to spend some time on

basically given an OData API url I have enough "data" to go about constructing by convention a UI for that

the bosses share one wife ... even more sordid and lurid ...

means I should be able to auto template out default UI for any given type T

then I can build out customisation points from that

much faster than trying to build out all UI's from scratch

@AndyK wins this conversation by that sentence alone

Nice hat @War BTW, how'd you get that?
