| {{ProjectDetails|ProjectTitle=Project_Identification_using_QR_Codes}}
| |
|
| |
| ==ToDo==
| |
| 1. Enable links to external images to allow images hosted on an external website (e.g. the QR codes) to be displayed: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Linked_images#External_image_syntax
| |
|
| |
| 1.1 Less secure way: allow all images http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAllowExternalImages
| |
|
| |
| 1.2 more secure way: all images from this site: http://chart.apis.google.com/ http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAllowExternalImagesFrom
| |
|
| |
| 2. Add this the Extension to embed RSS feeds: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RSS
| |
|
| |
| 3. Identify a couple more projects in the hackspace + print trial QR labels for them.
| |
|
| |
| ==What?==
| |
| Attach printed-out QR codes to each project. That QR code will contain a link to the relevant project page on the wiki.
| |
|
| |
| ==Where?==
| |
| Project boxes and projects in the hackspace.
| |
|
| |
| ==When?==
| |
| With any luck from 4th August onwards. I will print out a test batch.
| |
|
| |
| ==Why?==
| |
| This will facilitate collaboration as everyone can then find the most relevant wiki page for that project quickly.
| |
|
| |
| ==Who?==
| |
| Current project collaborators: [[User:samthetechie|samthetechie]]
| |
|
| |
| ==How?==
| |
| I will use the [http://code.google.com/apis/chart/ google charts API] (credit to [[User:jonty|jonty]] for the recommend). That will generate the QR code images.
