Re: [development] Taxonomy: Multiple parents?
by Gord Christmas 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

Another question about the validity of multiple parents I have been wondering about is that if you select one of the eel terms they are both selected next time you edit again. This as we all know is due to the fact that the tree for a selection is not stored. I only really noticed this writing Taxonomy Super Select and thinking it was a bug in my code. If this is the functionality and you are really only tagging a term and not it's path how is it useful? Aside from classification inconsistencies as well. Gord.

FAPI execution order cheat sheet
by Karen Stevenson 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

I'm trying to figure out just what order various FAPI elements get executed in (#process, #after_build, #validate, #submit, #access, etc.) so I can determine just where I want to insert my custom functions, and I got to wondering if anyone has put together a list of the order things those elements get fired? It would be a very handy little cheat sheet if it exists. What would be really handy is a flow chart of the FAPI processing -- an illustration of exactly what happens and in what order -- but I'd settle for a simple list. Just wondering if anyone has already done this for a training program or something (or maybe has at least the beginnings of something like this) and would be willing to share :-) Thanks! Karen

It's strange that my first message here (hi all) is something which have nothing to do with Drupal but I wish to let you know that with my first son I increased my nocturnal activity on Internet (and programming) because he liked to sleep on my arms while I was at the keyboard... :-) so perhaps you won't disappear for too much!

Absence - Baby
by Dries Buytaert 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hello all, as you know, Karlijn and I are expecting our first baby. Karlijn is due in 2 weeks, but chances are the baby might arrive a little sooner than that. It might as well arrive a little later, although at this point, we think it will arrive sooner that late. But who knows, you can't really plan these things. ;) I'll try to stick around as long as I can, but as soon the baby is born, I'm going to take a break from everything Drupal. I'd like to focus my energy on helping Karlijn, and I'd like to spend as much time with Karlijn and the baby as possible. I don't know what life will be shortly after our son or daughter is born, but time permitting, I might actually be around to help and to get some Drupal work done. Just don't count on that and expect me to disappear for a while. Either way, I expect to resume my normal duties two or three weeks after the baby is born. It would be great if you guys could take a lead in getting Drupal 6 out during my absence. You'll have to. There is a lot of work to be done, and once we ironed out most of the pressing bugs, we'll want to involve the (non-developer) Drupal community some more and target a first beta release. Try to post an occasional status update on drupal.org, and maybe target August 1st or August 15th as candidate dates for a first beta release of Drupal 6? Of course, Steven and Gabor should be here to help. It would be great to see you guys make a ton of progress when watching from the sideline for a while. :) The next couple of months, I'll also be on the look out for a Drupal 7 branch maintainer. I'll share my thoughts around that when we're a little bit closer to opening the new developer branch, but I figured I'd let you know that I'm keeping an eye on your contributions, the quality of your work, and your vision for Drupal. We'll have plenty of time to talk about this more, but showing off your talents during the code freeze helps as a maintaining a branch, and dealing with bug reports will be a significant part of any branch maintainer's job. In other words: you'll want to start impressing me now. :-) PS: which reminds me -- I still have to create the obligatory baby website. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://buytaert.net/

question - hook execution order
by David McNab 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Hi, If a module is generating both page content and block content, and thus defines both a page content callback function and a _block hook function, then which will get called first? Does the _block() hook get called first, or the page content callback as defined in _menu()? Thanks David

Drupal 5 incremental release?
by Caleb Gilbert 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

> > Please file detailed and specific bugs against 5.x if any APIs have > changed which break contributed modules. This should not happen. > > That's fine, but wouldn't it be more expedient to open the scrutiny of the api's to the entire Drupal community? Any one individual (or even a handful of individuals) is going to have a more limited amount of time to research, document, and fix the existing issues with Drupal 5.x-dev than if the entire Drupal 5 user base is looking at things. I guess I don't understand the reasons for not releasing something at this point. Considering that 5.1 was released within 2 weeks of the 5.0 release, at time frame which could almost be considered as "concurrent" with the 5.0release given the larger perspective of time, it's not much of a stretch to say that the 5.0 branch has never really been updated since being released (to quibble I guess the more technically correct term is that it's been "hardly" updated). - Caleb

Re: [development] Add image node with PHP Curl?

That was it- it works now. I thought I had tried that, but I guess not. Thank you so much, Andrew! For others, here is the code... $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie.txt"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.example.com/?q=node/add/image/"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); $postarray = array( 'files[image]' =>"@$file", 'taxonomy[3]'=>'2', 'title' => $file, 'body' => 'xxxx', 'status' => '1', 'revision' => '1', 'comment' => '2', 'name' => 'mov', 'moderate' => '0', 'form_id' => 'image_node_form', 'form_token' => $token, 'op' => 'Submit' ); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postarray); $buf2 = curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); On 7/17/07, James Tunick wrote: $postarray = array( 'files[image]' =>'@$file', 'taxonomy[3]'=>'2', 'title' => $file, 'body' => 'xxxx', If this is the actual code you're using, I think the problem is that you're not passing in the file name correctly. The single quotes wont allow for the variable substitution needed to insert your filename. I've got an old blog post with some sample code: http://drewish.com/blogger/archives/2005/01/27/using_php_and_curl_to_do_an_… Good luck, andrew

Re: [development] Add image node with PHP Curl?

I'm not sure how I would do this. I have never used XML-RPC. Any example code I can look at? I've also of course googled the subject but I'm still confused as to how this would help me post new images to my Drupal site. To clarify, I'm looking for the simplest way to create a new image node when a certain PHP script is called by a scheduled cron. Thanks for any feedback on how to simplify.

Drupal 5 incremental release?
by Caleb Gilbert 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Perhaps it's time to let Drupal 5.2 out of the bag soon? It's been 6+ months since an update to the branch and I imagine scores of updates to the codebase... After installing the current Drupal 5.x-dev tarball (as an experiment) I discover that there are database updates to the system and comments tables - this and/or other changes apparently breaks some contributed modules as I discover through a quick survey of the site (e.g., the spam module, though on, would not display and settings pages). It might be nice to for contrib authors to be able to update their modules now so that a) they still feel compelled to since Drupal 5 is still the current release, and b) so there's at least a short lag between needing to update code for Drupal 5.2 and needing to update it for Drupal 6. - Caleb HigherVisibilityWebsites.com

Looking for Drupal SAML SP implementation
by Boris Mann 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Has anyone implemented a SAML SP module (aka client) for Drupal? I seem to recall someone emailing me about it a year or so ago, but can't find anything. Please let me know if you know of such a thing and/or would be interested in an implementation.
