We are almost there migrating all of our SVN repositories, tickets, etc to our new home at assembla.  We have chosen assembla as it offers the best collaboration tools and open source spaces.  Our migration is almost complete and all of our nightly builds are now pointing to our assembla svn servers.  Our old servers will be still online but no development will be done there.  So please adjust all your SVN pointers to anything ColdBox.  We have created several spaces in Assembla for ColdBox Development:
  1. ColdBox Platform
  2. ColdBox Dashboard
  3. ColdBox Code Depot
  4. ColdBox Community
We have several tools that will be cool for anybody just looking at the projects or actual watchers of the project.  Our old repository wiki is in progress of being migrated to CodexWiki in our new wiki home: http://wiki.coldbox.org.  So it will take some weeks before all the documentation is migrated and we can slowly phase out our beloved Trac site that has been faithful to us for more than 4 years.

On other news, we have created our ColdBox Community space which is now a full community workspace.  Therefore, we would like to offer a space for the ColdBox Community to come together and share their: plugins, interceptors, pet projects, samples etc.  If you are interested in active development we can create an account for you in our community space and you can have access to either an SVN or GIT repository, and tons of features in the ColdBox Community Space:
  1. Milestones/Ticketing System
  2. SVN source control or
  3. GIT source control
  4. Online collaboration chat
  5. Online messaging/forums
  6. Community Wiki
  7. Online File Sharing
  8. more...
Just email us at info@coldbox.org and we will send you some information about it.  Also, please note our contribution agreements and by laws here: http://www.coldboxframework.com/index.cfm/about/contribute.  It is important that you fill one out if you would like to participate in the ColdBox Community initiative.

So with that said, we keep pushing forward in our ColdBox 3.0.0 development, expect a beta 3 this week and new and exciting things in the coming weeks.  We are truly excited with all the new tools we will have for more active and open development.  Not only that, but offering the ColdBox community a chance to host their projects and be part of ColdBox Development.

12 Days of BoxLang - Day 4: TestBox

Today we’re celebrating one of the most exciting new additions to the BoxLang ecosystem:

the TestBox BoxLang CLI Runner — a fast, native way to run your TestBox tests directly through the BoxLang Runtime. ⚡

No server required. No CommandBox needed. Just pure, ultra-fast BoxLang-powered testing from the command lineon Windows, Mac, and Linux.

If you’re building modern applications with BoxLang — web apps, CLIs, serverless functions, Android apps, or OS-level utilities — this new feature gives you a unified, flexible testing workflow you can run anywhere.

12 days of BoxLang - Day 3: SocketBox!

12 days of BoxLang - Day 3: SocketBox!

As BoxLang continues evolving into a modern, high-performance, JVM-based runtime, real-time communication becomes essential for the applications we all want to build: dashboards, collaboration tools, notifications, live feeds, multiplayer features, and more.

That’s where SocketBox steps in — the WebSocket upgrade listener built to work seamlessly with CommandBox and the BoxLang MiniServer. ⚡

Today, for Day 3, we’re highlighting how SocketBox supercharges BoxLang development by giving you fast, flexible, and framework-agnostic WebSocket capabilities.
