Implement drafts and allow the use of time in publish dates.
This pull request adds a drafts feature and allows the use of times, e.g. 11:53 PM EST, in publish dates.
Presentation
When any new post is created, it is a draft.
A post represents whether it is a draft or not in the posts table view. Posts now have a "draft" string in the location where the published date would be:
A draft will only show up in local previews and will not be included in the generated site during publishing.
You can switch a post between draft/published by using the contextual menu for the post:
For a published post...
And for a draft…
Hurrah!
Technical Stuff
The implementation stuck to "Method B" in the discussion for #16.
A metadata class was added so that we can manage whatever metadata goes along with a post. This data must be written to the metadata file when changed, otherwise it will not be saved.
There were no major changes per-say. Some of the changes were cleaning up the code so I could modify it (and grasp it).
Problem
There is one problem with this pull request, albeit a small one. When you resize the window while viewing the posts view, it is possible for the title and date labels to collide.
Not a huge issue, but I imagine it could be solved with some auto layout voodoo (Xcode 5?).
I really appreciate all the work here, Tanner. The feature looks like a huge improvement, and it will allow many more rich additions (tags have been on my mental list for a while now!).
Before I merge it, however, I'd like to see the coding style match up with the project as a whole. That means that all the extra newlines that you added should be removed (I like whitespace, but not that much whitespace), and the public -init methods should be switched to factory methods. I favor factory methods as they reduce typing (no need to type an -alloc call every time), and there is really no downside.
I apologize for being a stickler about this, but this is part of open-source projects. If we can't keep a common, consistent coding style, then the code will just get progressively messier until no one can understand all of it. Thanks again for all your hard work.
