Direct links to nightly builds?

Wete

Would it be possible to link directly to the package files on http://www.zenphoto.org/pages/nightly-builds? I'd like to fetch the package directly by using wget on my server. It's much faster than via ftp.

If that is the same as download probably yes. You could also use svn generally. But note that the dev nightly is currently for 1.4.3 while the trunk one is 1.4.2.x bug fixes. On release of 1.4.3 the svn streams and therefore the nightly will switch (dev becomes 1.4.4 and trunk 1.4.3.x).

I do not know how to use svn.
Maybe I should buy a book like "Server in a nutshell" ...

This one is aimed at our translators specifically but the base principle is the same:

But I never used svn on a live server to update as I/we develop primarily on a local server.

You should not directly use the SVN for anything but testing. (even then it is not needed if you are willing to wait overnight, as nightly builds are made each night around 2200 Pacific time.) The settings of the SVN are geared for debugging.

The URLs to the files are predictable, but of course there is a new pair of files each night. So your widget would have to fabricate the link based on the date.

Oh, I'm not keen on using SVN. I just want to use wget via SSH to get the build directly, but this does not work with the links on the nightly build page (I don't know why it doesn't work).

Yeah, it workes now with wget. Thank you guys!!

The links on the nighty build page are of course masked by using the download list plugin.

Wete

Yes, but they hat 3 "download=..." in the querystring (?download=123&download=234&download=345), this confused wget. Now it works fine (on my virtual server).

Sure, there actually should be only one "download=".
