[Release] Spotweb Filter Creator 0.4.0

February 25, 2013 Applications, Linux, Raspberry Pi, Windows No comments

Spotweb Filter Creator 0.4.0 has been released.

Two new languages have been added to this release, German and French.
Below is a screenshot of the German version, running in Linux Mint 14 (nadia).

Also the mechanism to load the translations is now much more dynamic than it was before.
This is a little bit techy stuff, but Spotweb Filter Creator doesn’t need a recompile anymore when just adding new languages.

The available languages are now defined in the spotwebfc.lng file instead of hardcoded into the source code.

For those that are interested, I’ve uploaded the translations to Transifex: Click here.

The translation project is “Free For All”, so feel free to contribute if you want Spotweb Filter Creator translated in your own native language :-)

Downloads for Windows, Linux and Raspberry Pi are available at the Spotweb Filter Creator project page.

Spotweb Filter Creator @ Raspberry Pi!

Today, I’ve managed to build a version of Spotweb Filter Creator for the Raspberry Pi.
I’ve built and tested it on the recommended OS: Raspbian Wheezy.

To download and install Raspbian Wheezy, visit the downloads section of the Raspberry Pi website: http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads

For the Raspberry Pi owners who want to play around with it, head over to the Spotweb Filter Creator project page, and download the RPi version.

[Release] Spotweb Filter Creator 0.3.0

February 14, 2013 Applications, Linux, Windows No comments

Today, Spotweb Filter Creator 0.3.0 has been released.

This is a bug-fix release. With the previous version, it was possible in some scenarios to get filter items with non-unique ID’s. This would confuse Spotweb when uploading the filters, and some sub-filters could be appended to the wrong top filter, when working with nested filter items.

I also added a spotwebfc.sh wrapper script for the Linux version to make it possible to start Spotweb Filter Creator even if the Qt libraries are not installed on the system. By starting Spotweb Filter Creator with spotwebfc.sh, the bundled Qt libraries in the “lib” folder will be loaded.

Downloads are available at the Spotweb Filter Creator project page.

Spotweb Filter Creator for Linux (x86-x64)

February 9, 2013 Linux No comments

Due to a request in the comments at the Spotweb Filter Creator page I have created a version of Spotweb Filter Creator for Linux 64-bit.

First, I must say that I am very unfamiliar with packaging/distribution of Linux tools.

After some time reading on the net, I figured out that creating a .tar.gz is probably the quickest and most easy way to success, although I realize it’s probably not as fancy as a .deb package.
I’ve tested the package on a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit and it worked fine!
The alpha tag (a) is added in the version because I am still a little bit cautious ;)

Here’s a screenshot of Spotweb Filter Creator running on Ubuntu 12.04.

If you are running a Linux distribution, download the brand new Spotweb Filter Creator for Linux from the Spotweb Filter Creator project page.

Feedback in the comments is always welcome :-)

Update: The 32-bit version (x86) of Spotweb Filter Creator is also available now. 

Tool: Spotweb Filter Creator

October 22, 2012 Applications, Windows No comments

Een tijdje geleden heb ik in mijn vrije tijd een tool proberen te maken om het aanmaken van Spotweb Filter XML bestanden te vereenvoudigen.

Ik heb de wiki-pagina hoe filters werken van spotweb hiervoor als uitgangspunt gebruikt.

Spotweb Filter Creator is gemaakt met behulp van de Qt SDK, hierdoor is het mogelijk multi-platform (Windows/Linux) versies van Spotweb Filter Creator te maken.

Meer informatie en download links zijn aanwezig op de Spotweb Filter Creator project pagina.
