Cheatsheet E-Book for offline use

[Vineet Sawant]

Hello all,

I just spent 3 days without internet and I couldn't do much work on my ProcessWire project because I couldn't use the cheatsheet.

I realized that there's a need to have PW's documentation in an ebook format including cheatsheet.

So I've copy-pasted cheatsheet in a doc file & created a cheatsheet ebook for offline use. I'm posting it here so that others can also use it.

Please let me know if doing this is wrong in anyway, I'll delete the files.

Also note that there was no intention to make any kind of profit by using cheatsheet to make an ebook out of it.

I hope this will help people like me when they're unable to access cheatsheet for any reason.

Enjoy.

EDIT: Attached file has been updated, as it wasn't readable on Mac and also wasn't very good looking. So I've updated it for better readability but I'm not sure if it still works on Mac, so someone needs to check it for me.

@vineonardo - thanks for making this... it will be good to have this on an ereader and be able to study it sometimes.

@Macrura

Thanks for your reply. Yeah that's a nice idea, I hadn't thought about putting it in iPad till now.

I've always thought it would best to have the Cheatsheet available as a PAGE or TEMPLATE available to download/import into our own installation.

Search would be enabled, a nice jQuery dropmenu would make it easy to find all the information

Was just thinking about this! It would also solve offline issues (run it locally)

Goto http://cheatsheet.processwire.com , File -> Save Page as... or context click on page -> Save as... Enjoy.

Wrong link Soma...that links to this thread  ...we get your point though  . Thanks for the tip!

But Soma ... that's cheating! lol

There's no challenge there!

 

[Soma]

It's the forum software cheating on me

[kongondo]

OK, for the truly lazy like me...here's the html version attached. Clicking on Advanced twice seems to add ++ instead of just one? No biggie though...I removed the Google Analytics stuff - you don't need those. You can easily use this in your PW template file of course.

All credits to Soma of course

Edit: Note (see post by Soma below) - this Cheat Sheet will need to be updated with PW 2.3  additions

Kongondo. Thanks for doing this but you better wait until Ryan updated the sheet to 2.3 v.

Good point. Let me update the post...but will just leave the attachment up with a note

[ryan]

I can't seem to see anything from the cheatsheet PDF. It just shows up as gradient lines where text would usually be. Anyone else get this? See the screenshot. 

[Vineet Sawant]

Hello Ryan,
Will check and fix it ASAP.

Sorry I couldn't test on Mac.

Have updated the file, please check and tell me if it's working on your machine.

Same thing this time. It's odd, I've not ever seen a PDF do this before.  

[Vineet Sawant]

@Ryan

That's really odd, I wonder if it's happening with all other Mac users or if some certain version of Mac.

Anyways, I think it's better to attach the doc file.

[Soma]

I see the same on Mac as Ryan. NEver seen that, and let me says 3.5 mb for a bit of text is quite huge. Apart from that it will be out of date pretty quickly now.

[Vineet Sawant]

Hello Soma,

Thanks for your reply.

I was wondering the same about the file size. Anyways, I guess it's better to wait for the latest cheatsheets to be released so that I can update the one I've.

I'll be sharing doc file this time. 

[diogo]

Or we can work on a print.css for the cheatsheet. shouldn't be too difficult, and would always be on date.

maybe i'm wrong, but the only text in pdf is the word "cheatsheet" and all other is hi-res bmp. if you don't mind, you can send me your source and i'll try to convert it.

ps: sorry for my English, as always =)

Thanks for this . Btw, I don't wish to steal k07n's thunder but I just used Word's "Save as PDF" and the resulting file is only 333KB (and text searchable). How did you convert yours?

Hello kongondo,

I did exactly the same, that's what puzzling me why the pdf's becoming so heavy.

Btw, I'm using Microsoft Office ProPlus 2013 trial version, if that matters.

[Vineet Sawant]

Alright guys, 

Here's the updated pdf which is now just ~699kb.

Download

Seems I shouldn't have used fancy font in the document.

[k07n]

something like that ~150kb

I used a standard font, made it smaller and in 2 columns, fix borders in some tables, it was a little overlined(dunno how it to say, lol).

hope someone like it

upd: docx
