GNU Radio Wikis

G’day,

where did the old GNU Radio Wiki go? I’m looking for the pages
containing
information on user applications, sample data files, howto files etc. I
can’t
find them on www.gnuradio.org/trac/wiki anymore.

There are a number of pages gone now, like the docs on multiple synced
USRP’s,
syncing clocks, and such. I did find some bookmarks I had, though, that
still work as of this morning:
http://comsec.com/wiki?UniversalSoftwareRadioPeripheral
http://comsec.com/wiki?DaughterboardReleaseNotes
and others reachable from those pages.

I’ve made local copies of those pages (among others) in case the comsec
wiki
goes away.

I have complete copies of the comsec wiki pages (the ascii usemod
source format), and some code that does a partial conversion from the
usemod format into the trac format. It still needs some work, and I’m
not likely to get back to it any time soon.

If someone would like to complete the conversion, I’d be delighted to
upload the converted files into the new wiki.

The code that does part of the conversion is here:

$ svn co http://gnuradio.org/trac/usemod2trac

(convert_usemod_to_trac.py is the file that needs work)

The latest usemod pages (extracted from the wiki using
extract_pages_from_usemod.py ) are here:

http://comsec.com/data/usemod-pages.tar.gz

Let me know if you’ve got any questions. It would really be great if
someone can find the time to complete the conversion. Then we’d have
a single (editable) wiki!

To get more of the old wiki pages available I extended the
convert_usemod_to_trac.py a bit.
It should now handle lists (****) and : better.
(my new version is attached)
I also put a few more pages in the new trac wiki, converted with this
script.
(e.g. USRPClockingNotes and MultiUsrp)

The old wiki used to have categories which were handy for finding what
you need.
The new Wiki only has a quite bare homepage.
You must know you have to click at TitleIndex to see all documents.
And then you only get a flat list.

I think it would be a good idea to give the TitleIndex a more prominent
place in the WIKI homepage.
(somewhere at the top)
It would also be nice to have some Category System.
(CategoryInstall, CategorySignals, CategoryExamples, CategoryLinks)
Can this be done easy?

Greetings,

Martin

I since learnt that one can lookup older wiki versions see below:

http://comsec.com/wiki?action=browse&id=GnuRadioWiki&revision=182

of particular interest to me was the section containing the programming
examples

http://comsec.com/wiki?HowToProgram

Uhh, make that “exclamation point …”

CategoryFoo. There’s a chance this is already implemented in one of the
[[magic]] links. If not, it shouldn’t be hard to implement, since we
know the search primitive is already in there.

Maybe this is what we want:

Thanks for the link. Looks like it’s worth installing.

Yes.

Feel free to make the changes :wink:

It’s probably possible to make a new python plugin that does what
CategoryFoo used to do. E.g., find all pages that contain
CategoryFoo. There’s a chance this is already implemented in one of the
[[magic]] links. If not, it shouldn’t be hard to implement, since we
know the search primitive is already in there.
