Zenit Wiki Search

Zenit-Wiki Search by Ezadkiel Marbella:

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
 name: "zenit/wiki specific search:",
 takes: {"search zenit/wiki term": noun_arb_text},
 preview: function( pblock, wikiquery ) {
   pblock.innerHTML = "Will Search For: " + wikiquery.text;
 },
 execute: function( wikiquery ) {
  var url = "http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search={QUERY}&go=Go"
  var query = wikiquery.text;
  var urlString = url.replace("{QUERY}", query);
  Utils.openUrlInBrowser(urlString);
 }
})

Zenit Google Search

This is my submission. I am assuming we are encouraged to reuse code wherever possible. When using the search it is recommended that you separate the terms by + signs as that is what the goggle interface inserts between search terms. I found that it works when spaces are used as well though.

Timer

Written by: Scott Lunel
For this lab I was interested to see whether or not it would be possible to run a delayed command under Ubiquity. I've recently
been dealing with threads and sleeping them in C++.

At first I attempted something along the lines of:


CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
  name: "Timer",
  author: "Scott Lunel",
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
  execute: function(directObj) {
    var start = new Date().getTime();
    var cur = start;
    var secDuration = start + parseInt(directObj.text);

    while(parseInt(cur) < parseInt(secDuration)){
      cur = new Date().getTime();
    }

    displayMessage( "Time's Up!" );
    
  }
})


However this wasn't exactly what I was looking for because it caused the browser to freeze while the command was running.

I did a little more looking and found this method instead:

CmdUtils.CreateCommand({
  name: "Timer",
  author: "Scott Lunel",
  takes: {"Time": noun_arb_text},
  preview: "A simple timer that executes a message to the user after the entered time period.",
  execute: function(directObj) {

    Utils.setTimeout(function() { displayMessage("Time's Up!"); }, parseInt(directObj.text)); 
    
  }
})


Unlike the previous command, it will not freeze the browser while the timed command is being performed.

Cuil Search

Cuil is the new sensation in the search market. Cuil is the search engine for the future. That's why I have just implemented the search for CUIL.
