---|
| 3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
---|
| 4 | |
---|
| 5 | Codebase self contained. runs without reference to external files or info. |
---|
| 6 | - can be located in /usr/local/php/lib/php for server-wide access |
---|
| 7 | - does not include any files outside codebase |
---|
| 8 | - does not write to files outside codebase |
---|
| 9 | - does not try to determine it's location or site parameters. this will minimize it's failure to glean this info. |
---|
| 10 | - will still run if info missing: db creds, log dir, session info. |
---|
| 11 | - can be located in /usr/local/lib/php if necessary, so accessible by all sites. |
---|
| 12 | |
---|
| 13 | remove interdependencies: |
---|
| 14 | - App() is the only dependency for other classes. It includes Utilities.inc.php silently. |
---|
| 15 | - admin_id vs. user_id |
---|
| 16 | - libs requiring external files, such as html templates and email templates, make classes self-contained. |
---|
| 17 | |
---|
| 18 | App object: |
---|
| 19 | - object belongs to a realm, keeping messages and session data within specific site/app. |
---|
| 20 | - uses the singleton pattern so only one instance of App exists for each app. |
---|
| 21 | - app object can be accessed globally without reference to object name by calling methods statically, e.g. App:logMsg() |
---|
| 22 | - seperate application and codebase parameters from site configuration variables. |
---|
| 23 | Use $app->getParam('var') or App::getParam('var') to get app params and for site configurations do whatever you want |
---|
| 24 | I'm using $cfg['node']['features'] format for configurations |
---|
| 25 | |
---|
| 26 | Application configuration vars |
---|
| 27 | - defaults part of the app class |
---|
| 28 | - do not need to be set in any specific order |
---|
| 29 | |
---|
| 30 | One application will always have distinct: |
---|
| 31 | - Configurations: |
---|
| 32 | - log dir |
---|
| 33 | - log config |
---|
| 34 | - debugging |
---|
| 35 | - charset |
---|
| 36 | - maybe sessions |
---|
| 37 | - Objects: |
---|
| 38 | - auth object |
---|
| 39 | - security roster |
---|
| 40 | - Environment: |
---|
| 41 | - even seperate codebase installs if necessary |
---|
| 42 | - include path |
---|
| 43 | - site/doc/web root |
---|
| 44 | - lang |
---|
| 45 | - $dbh database handler |
---|
| 46 | |
---|
| 47 | DB object: |
---|
| 48 | - Self contained class for DB functions. db::query is the only necessary function. Maintains connections and state independent of App. |
---|
| 49 | |
---|
| 50 | Things with modified interfaces: |
---|
| 51 | - App |
---|
| 52 | - Auth_SQL |
---|
| 53 | - DB |
---|
| 54 | - DBSessionHandler.inc.php |
---|
| 55 | - RecordLock |
---|
| 56 | - RecordVersion |
---|
| 57 | - SessionCache.inc.php |
---|
| 58 | |
---|
| 59 | Full test suite for all codebase libraries. Run from the command line: "codebase/tests/run_tests.sh;" |
---|
| 60 | |
---|
| 61 | Classes that access database tables have a function initDB() that will setup the basic schema necessary to run. This includes Auth_SQL, RecordVersion, RecordLock, and DBSessionHandler. |

---|

---|
| 66 | |
---|
| 67 | This is the primary stable release used before we started using Subversion. It was maintained erratically by one erratic person. No revision info documented, sorry. |
