Howdy everyone!
I had some spare time last October and built this little script that will automatically update your plugins on proboards while your working on them.
It uses Selenium (browser testing software) to log into the forum and then sit on the login page. When your finished with your local work on a plugin, you can just simply copy it all into your clipboard and then tell the script to insert it into the plugin page automatically. Or, as another option, you can point it at a script that prints your code to standard out. The stdout code will be injected into the pluggin page.
It's mostly a proof of concept, ideally it could be set up to watch for changes in directories and then run build scripts automatically.
Anwyay, I just thought I'd share and see if anyone actually would find this usefull. The script has really only been tested on OSX but it should work on any other unix environment and possibly wrindows as it's written in Node.
Also, just a side note for the admins: The forum is displayed in full in the background, so I don't think this is in violation of TOS, but just let me know if it is and I'll take this down.
DISCLAIMER: The script does log you in manually, so it is temporarilly storing your password in memory, which is a security problem. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
