I appreciate any help and love pull requests. Here are some things you need to respect:

no hard-wired external services
no support for ancient browsers (e.g. IE6-9)

Reporting Issues

Disqus import fails

If isso import /path/to/disqus.xml fails, please do NOT attach the raw dump file to GH:Issues. Please anonymize all IP addresses inside the <ipAddress> tag first, as second step, replace all email addresses with a generic one ( email tag).

In case of a JavaScript traceback, please setup Isso in development mode described below. Otherwise it is very hard to "guess" the reason.

Copy and paste traceback into a ticket and provide some details of your usage.

Development

If you want to hack on Isso or track down issues, there's an alternate way to set up Isso. It requires a lot more dependencies and effort.

Requirements:

Python 2.6, 2.7 or 3.3
Ruby 1.8 or higher
Node.js, NPM and Bower

On Debian/Ubuntu install the following packages

~> sudo aptitude install python-setuptools python-dev npm ruby
~> ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

Get the repository:

~> git clone https://github.com/posativ/isso.git
~> cd isso/

Install virtualenv and create a new environment for Isso (recommended):

~> pip install virtualenv
~> virtualenv .
~> source ./bin/activate

Install Isso dependencies:

~> python setup.py develop
~> isso run

Compile SCSS to CSS:

~> gem install sass
~> scss --watch isso/css/isso.scss

Install JS components:

~> cd isso/js
~> bower install almond q requirejs requirejs-domready requirejs-text

Integration

<script src="/isso/js/config.js"></script>
<script data-main="/isso/js/embed" src="/isso/js/components/requirejs/require.js"></script>

Optimization

~> npm install -g requirejs uglifyjs
~> cd isso/js
~> r.js -o build.embed.js
~> r.js -o build.count.js
