I’ve made a small site to serve as an unofficial aggregator of all the sugars and themes everybody’s making:
http://fileability.net/coffee/

The database is an XML file, which you can see as XML and JSON.

Please go ahead and add anything you make (it doesn’t matter it’s not finished, as long as it has basic functionality). If there’s anything you’d like to see on the site, just post.

I’d much prefer to have the sugar’s name link to a landing/description page (or main Git page, or whatever), with a secondary direct download link elsewhere.  For example: “Regex (download)”.

I could do an accordion…?

Very cool idea. Might be easier to do this then including a sugar list/updater inside Espresso. But I guess we have to see what the devs do

That’s why I made the backend easy to parse XML.

Ah of course :D

Love it! But just got this error when I tried to put up a theme with the following URL for the download: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/416667/Espresso/Themes/Monochrome_Rose.css.zip

Warning: file_put_contents(database.xml) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/fileabil/public_html/coffee/doupload.php on line 81

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/fileabil/public_html/coffee/doupload.php:81) in /home/fileabil/public_html/coffee/doupload.php on line 84

Could this be because I’m using dropbox?

My bad. Fixed.

Yep! Thanks.

Fixed up the broken Cappuccino theme link. My bad

Very cool, Alex! This will help give an overview of what Sugars are already in a usable state.

Any chance I could get the ExpressionEngine sugar removed, I want to put up a new github version of it. As everyone appears to be using it, I should probably get off SVN and jump on the git bandwagon.

Done

OK so I’ve added a new URL system (as requested):

To view information for a sugar/theme:
http://fileability.net/coffee/sugar/Objective-C
http://fileability.net/coffee/theme/Cappuccino

To get a sugar’s language XML file:
http://fileability.net/coffee/sugar/SQL/language

To list items:
http://fileability.net/coffee/xml
http://fileability.net/coffee/json
http://fileability.net/coffee/yaml

I’ve added download buttons to the home page (as requested).

I’ve also added file extensions and dependancies to the description pages. These are completely dynamic and generated from the language.xml file.

See here for an example:
http://fileability.net/coffee/sugar/Ruby

Alex, what kind of backend is used for Coffee House? Ruby? PHP?
