problem with url in \setupexternalfigures

problem with url in \setupexternalfigures

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

This used to work:

\setupexternalfigures[directory={\currentvalue, http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/}]
\starttext
\externalfigure[hacker-test]
\stoptext

But with the latest version, the figure is not found...

Cheers, Peter

ok, i can fix that but there is a problem ...

if no suffix is given, the quality list is followed and the first 
request will be

http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/hacker-test.pdf

which gives a home page which is no pdf of course and luatex does not 
like that

as i don't want to complicate the lookup mechanism even more, i will not 
catch this and users can best use a suffix when using an url

Does it make sense to add the look-up to \usemodule?

For example, the following works:

\input 
http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex

But it will be nice if I could also do

\usemodule[http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex]

or

\usemodule[http://..../t-cut-n-paste] % no .tex

or (not really serious here)

\usemodule[http:// ...][t-cut-n-paste] % like \usemodule[p][name] etc.

Of course, this will only work for moudles that provide only one file.

Aditya

Hello Hans,

I get error 404 (not found):

wget http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/hacker-test.pdf
--2010-01-14 09:05:32--  http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/hacker-test.pdf

Not really optimal, but should not be a problem.

Thanks, Peter

you can pick up the test version and play with ...

\enabletrackers[modules.loading]

\input 
http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex

% 
\usemodule[http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex]
\usemodule[http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste]

% \usemodule[x][set-12]

\starttext
     file:

 
\typefile{http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex}
\stoptext

a suffix is mandate with http etc as otherwise we get a match anyway (a 
homepage or some error page)

eventually all file loading will be scheme aware

at some point i want to use the built in socket code instead of calling 
curl in which case we can intercept the 404 case (i had no time for that 
yet)
