Ubiquity Plugin for developer.force.com

February 5, 2009 by David Schach 4 Comments

Inspired by Gina Trapani’s release of a Ubiquity plug-in to search Lifehacker via Google, I used her code as a base (thanks, Gina) and created a Ubiquity plug-in to search developer.force.com.

Because developerforce uses Google’s technology to search its own site, I wanted to display the search results within the developer.force.com site instead of using Google to search. This meant that I could not (in version 1) display results as the user types in a word. It is still a timesaver, though, as it opens the site and executes the search all-at-once.

To install the plug-in, make sure you have Ubiquity installed in Firefox, and then go to the project homeage at http://www.x2od.com/projects/ubiquity/index.xhtml. Install and you’re done! For more tips on using Ubiquity, visit Lifehacker.




Enjoy!
