Any references how can i develop this plugin in ruby.I have some basics with ruby.I also looked into sketchup ruby offical documentation.Now i want some reference code to this kind of similar work which i can follow.

I'm porting a screen capture module from Node.Js to Go. The existing module was used to screen capture a webpage. The existing module used node-phantom library written on top of phantomjs. Is there a similar alternative available for go? Or is there any alternative better approach to do so?
There seems to exist one lightweight wrapper, but it doesn't expose the methods which the node library does.
This is more of a explorative question. We just need some information before we decide to invest time in it.
Not sure about any GO package , but you can do it using wkhtmltopdf in your Golang code..
I'm learning Parse (the Javascript flavor) using their Todo App tutorial. I'm trying to write my first query. In the tutorial, I found this code:
var TodoList = Parse.Collection.extend({ ... });
I can't find any info about Parse.Collection in their JS Guide nor their API docs.
Can someone shed some light on what a Parse.Collection is and when I should use it?
You're not seeing anything in the docs because Parse.Collection was removed from the JavaScript SDK in v.1.6.0.
Downloads Page and JavaScript Changelog
SDK no longer contains Backbone-specific behavior. Moving forward, the core SDK will not be tied to any single framework, but we will work with the community to produce up-to-date bindings like Parse+React. The major changes are the removal of Parse.Collection, and allowing Parse.Objects to act as event channels.
In previous versions of the SDK, Parse.Collection was used almost identically to Backbone.Collection, as the Parse SDK was based on Backbone. Things are particularly confusing right now because tutorials on parse.com use pre-1.6.0 versions of the SDK.
First of all many thanks for the incredible source of information that you are providing to people like me.
I am visiting this site very often and most often finding the answer I need, but this is this is the first time I post a question, so please accept my apologies if I don't fully conform to rules.
Here is my issue:
I am "playing" with Dart Editor and Polymer to try to understand if I could use these technologies in my job moving forward
I was able to import the Polymer Core and Paper components in Dart Editor and to install polymer.dart
I was able to create a simple web page with a "core-selector" and to add some Dart code to handle a click on this component
I can't find how to listen using Dart code for component-specific event ("core-activate" & "core-select" here) and how to read component-specific attributes ("selected" & "multi" here)
I don't seem to be able to find good examples showing how to use "standard" polymer components in a web app created Dart Editor
I could find material on how to create my own polymer components using polymer.dart but I would just like to use standard components
I understand both Polymer and Dart are young but I can't imagine the clever brains at Google not having a solution or plans on this.
Regards and many thanks again.

The problem is not that Polymer and Dart are young. Dart is quite mature, Polymer is not even beta but also not so young anymore. The problem are the core- and paper-elements. They are very new and developed in JavaScript and the Polymer.dart team just created a code generator that wraps the JS core- and paper-elements in Polymer.dart elements. This process is only available since a few days and there are several issues which are yet to be solved.
I think you should provide a concrete example in your question of what you can't get working. Basically Polymer.dart core- and paper-elements work exactly as other Polymer.dart elements. So it's hard to know what to explain.
I wrote a Javascript (jQuery) plugin. Now I want to write a documentation site for it. Is there a good tool to create such a site out of some offline file formats or works like a CMS?
I know this answer has been asked before, but the last answers are from 2011. Is there anything new that does an awesome job in writing documentation?
There are a few new tools for generating websites or blogs from code/directory.
Bootstrap v3 just switched to jekyll for documentation. jekyll knows how to process Markdown or Liquid (markdown flavours)
Grunt.js is also used for all sorts of automated task. One of these being documentation generation. Search their plugin list for doc
assemble.io is another tool for generating documentation pages
I'll extend if I bump into others. I am not sure if this is exactly what you need, but they are general purpose so I am sure a jQuery plugin can fit in.
Does anyone know of a program that has support for code completion for Sketchup Ruby API?
Here are some Ruby IDEs that have code completion:
JetBrains RubyMine: http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/
NetBeans Ruby plugin: http://wiki.netbeans.org/Ruby
Unfortunately, it looks like you might need to do some work to get the Sketchup API symbols loaded into your IDE of choice. If I come across anything, I'll edit this answer.
You might also try posting to their mailing list to see if they have any ideas: http://groups.google.com/group/google-sketchup-developers
I found a code-completion addon for Notepad++. I added the SketchUp Ruby API methods to the Ruby code completion. Though I think it needs updating to support SU8's methods. I don't remember where I found it, but pretty sure it was somewhere on the SketchUcation forum: http://forums.sketchucation.com/
I'll post back if I find it.
