New Smarty Plugin - Attr
Hey,
Created a new Smarty plugin that makes it easy to add attributes to html elements based on properties of an object.
attr
This attr function is meant to shorten the syntax used to set various html attributes
more specifically the class attribute. It was inspired by the bindAttr helper in ember.js.
You provide a target object and that is used to
grab properties from. If the value passed in for the attribute is a property on the target
the value of that property is returned. If it is not a valid property then the string literal will
be used instead.
When dealing with a class attribute it acts a little differently. First of all you can pass in a
space delimited list of property names or values. If the property is a boolean it will dashize the
property name some_bool => is-some_bool. If you don’t want that you can pass in an alternate value
for when the bool is true some_bool:this-was-true => this-was-true. If the bool is false the class
won’t be added to the attribute.
# Sample object
$obj->active = true;
$obj->title = 'Whaddup';
$obj->status = 'pending';
$obj->public_url = 'http://example.com';
template file
{attr target=$obj class="active active:this-is-active status crap" href="public_url"}
> class="is-active this-is-active pending" href="http://example.com"
Options
There are a few options you can pass in to customize the output of the generated attributes string.
enclose
default: “
{attr target=$obj class="active" enclose="'"}
> class='is-active'
delimiter
default: ” ” (single space)
{attr target=$obj class="active" href="public_url" delimiter="\n"}
> class="is-active"\nhref="http://example.com"
sort
default: false
{attr target=$obj href="public_url" class="active" sort=true}
> class="is-active" href="http://example.com"
Check out the github repo to download it and provide any feedback. Thanks!

Put Display to Sleep With Alfred
Buh-Bye is an Alfred extension that allows you to put your display to sleep.
You’ll need 2 things for this to work:
- Set your top-left hot corner to put the display to sleep.

- And the Alfred Powerpack.
Install the plugin by double clicking the icon. Invoke by typing bye.

It works by executing an apple script originally found at http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20100418152304108.
Just putting this here so when I look back at the archives, I’ll know today we lost an amazing man. RIP Steve.
