changes to project nodes and admin UI and now installed on drupal.org
by Derek Wright 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

i've recently finished another round of project node improvements, and i just installed them all on drupal.org. of particular interest, the "default version" link on the project nodes is now gone, replaced with an auto-generated table of the latest releases for each version of core your module supports[1]. development snapshots are there in a separate table. here's the important thing for you to know: if your project has more than 1 branch for a given version of core (e.g. 4.7.x-2.* and 4.7.x-1.* releases) you can now specify if the latest 1.* or 2.* should be the default release for your project[2]. "default" means it'd be listed in that table on your project node, and it'd be used as the "Download" link on the project browsing pages [3] when filtering by a specific version of core (e.g. 4.7.x). you can select this via the new admin UI which is the "releases" subtab on the edit tab of your project node[4]. i hope the table is fairly self-explanatory (though suggestions for improving the usability of that table are certainly welcome). also note that all issue-related project node settings now live in the "issues" subtab, instead of being buried in collapsed fieldsets on the old monolithic edit tab. cheers, -derek [1] see http://drupal.org/node/89539 [2] see http://drupal.org/node/89538 [3] for example http://drupal.org/project/Modules/name [4] see http://drupal.org/node/96971 p.s. if filter by <all> versions on the project browsing pages, things are still kind of lame. i'm working on fixing this: http://drupal.org/node/101601 any help there would be appreciated. thanks!

cvs-release-notes.php -- auto-generates release notes from cvs log
by Derek Wright 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

From the updated version of http://drupal.org/node/94151: "To help generate detailed and accurate release notes, you can use the cvs-release-notes.php [1] script (which lives in the / contributions/tricks/cvs-release-notes directory of the contributions repository). You just checkout a local copy of your project, and in the root directory of your project's source code, you run the script and provide the name of the CVS tag for the previous release and the current release. It will parse all the CVS log messages between the 2 releases, and print out an HTML version of all unique commit messages, sorted chronologically, with any references to #xxxxx replaced with a link to that issue number. You will need to further edit this list for clarity, remove entries that aren't relevant for end users of your project to know about, and so on, but it should help get you started." enjoy, -derek [1] http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/drupal/contributions/ tricks/cvs-release-notes/cvs-release-notes.php p.s. requires command-line cvs on your machine, doesn't work on windoze (don't even ask for it from me, either get a real OS or have someone else run it for you and pastebin the output or something), there's a list of TODO items in the comment at the top of the script if you're feeling imaginative, etc... ;) p.p.s: i just tried on core to see how beta-3 is coming along: % ../contributions/tricks/cvs-release-notes/cvs-release-notes.php DRUPAL-5-0-BETA-2 HEAD | wc 74 801 7060 ;) shazam, y'all have been busy...

Temporary tables in search.module
by Ken Rickard 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

I am writing a search plugin for the MySite module, which displays content in MyYahoo! style link clusters. The requirement is that user be able to save searches to their MySite page. This requirement means that multiple searches might be requested when loading a MySite page. The core search function do_search() creates temporary tables to store data and assumes that only one search will be run per page load. As a result, trying to execute do_search() more than once per page view throws SQL errors. I have described the issue in greater detail here: http://drupal.org/node/102219 I am definitely not suggesting that temporary tables be removed from core. I am simply looking for a good solution to my issue. I would appreciate feedback on the issue, rather than the list. Thanks, Ken Rickard agentrickard

old bug in issue email behavior finally fixed - might start getting emails for a change
by Derek Wright 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

hi folks, i finally fixed an old bug in how project issue emails are handled: http://drupal.org/node/61453 basically, if you ever used the "Issues e-mail address:" setting on your project node's edit tab (now on the "issues" subtab, of course), chances are you never got any emails because of it. for no good reason, you had to have "Administer projects" permissions to be able to set the filters for what categories and states you wanted to see the emails for. furthermore, the code didn't match the UI description. the UI claimed "If none is checked all categories will be posted" yet the code only emailed anything if you defined filters and they matched the issue in question. now: 1) everyone sees these filter checkboxes 2) the code matches the UI -- if you select no filters, all issues are emailed. SO... it's entirely possible that many of you have used this setting, but never got any emails for new issues or followups. perhaps you gave up on that and just subscribed to the issue queue(s) instead. if so, you'll now get duplicate emails until you either disable the "Issues e-mail address:" setting or unsubscribe yourself using: http://drupal.org/project/issues/subscribe/[project_name] sorry for any inconvenience this might cause, but the bug has been bothering me for a long time, and i finally had a chance to fix it. ;) furthermore, this "Issues e-mail address" setting has the benefit of actually *allowing* these filters, which the regular issue subscription interface does not, so you've got more functionality now than before. cheers, -derek

Historic Monument Module
by Chris McGinlay 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Hi, I am currently developing a module aimed at custom display of images associated with historic monuments. I have a problem with the way I have extended the image.module using hook_form_alter() The module is here: http://drupal.org/project/monument Can someone advise me on this question: Using hook_form_alter in monument_image.module means that in effect every image becomes a monument_image. I need to find a way of extending the image module without forcing each image to have this extra data. Thanks Chris

Re: [development] getting the full $form in 5.x
by Peter Wolanin 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Karoly, I'm asking in the context of this issue: http://drupal.org/node/88633 I'd like to be able to collect the array keys for all the form values that come about as a result of hook_form_alter. This way when a node type is deleted, the corresponding variables could be automatically deleted, rather than requiring modules to implement hook_node_type for this one simple case. In other words, I'd like to maybe separate out or duplicate the code in node_type_form_submit that saves/updates items in the variable table. -Peter Date: Thu, 07 Dec 2006 05:36:57 +0100 (CET) From: "Karoly Negyesi" <karoly(a)negyesi.net> Subject: Re: [development] getting the full $form in 5.x To: development(a)drupal.org Message-ID: <E1GsB0D-0002Jn-QZ(a)fenris.runbox.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > Drupal 5.x to get the full form corresponding to a particular form ID? > Specifically, I want to have the $form with all the elements added > via hook_form_alter, but without rendering the $form. If this is what you want then indeed you need two steps. As you have not outlined what do you want to do with the form, I can't really guess a better way. Maybe you want to do $form = drupal_retrieve_form($form_id); drupal_prepare_form($form_id, $form); or even drupal_process_form($form_id, $form); Eaton did a very good job in slicing up the form workflow steps into separate functions -- but if you want half of a step, then you indeed need do it for yourself.

getting the full $form in 5.x
by Peter Wolanin 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but is there a simple way in Drupal 5.x to get the full form corresponding to a particular form ID? Specifically, I want to have the $form with all the elements added via hook_form_alter, but without rendering the $form. Looks like I might have to do it in 2 steps: $form = drupal_retrieve_form('myformid') foreach (module_implements('form_alter') as $module) { $function = $module .'_form_alter'; $function('myformid', $form); } Thanks, Peter

General token parser (API), does it exist?
by Bèr Kessels 06 Dec '06

06 Dec '06

Hi, new-user-emails, welcome-mails, pathauto, newsletters, themes, auto_nodetitles and so on. Just a few random examples of token-replacement. Drupal has nothing in this regards, every module on its own, resulting in a lot of code-overhead, inconsistency and all the other downsides of not having a central/modular design. Are there any projects on this? Any APIs, libraries, or exsisting modules that do what I need: centralise token replacement? Or even an existing patch or issue that I missed? What need, more specific, is: * Present the user/admin with a list of available tokens (%username, %site etc) in a help message. * Parse these by replacing tokens with the value of a variable. What I don't need, is: * A new templating engine. * complex if-while etc structures. -- Drupal, Ruby on Rails and Joomla! development: webschuur.com | Drupal hosting: sympal.nl
