we're not relying on overriding url::site() to do tricks around item
urls. This means that you won't get item urls by doing
url::site("albums/37"), for example, but it also means that we won't
get pretty urls where we don't expect them (like in the action of a
<form> element).
Incidentally, this will help us move over to using the slug format
because if you've got a bad character in a url, the edit forms will
now work on it since they'll be id based.
affected. Practically speaking this means that we'll reindex items
when tags are added or removed from them.
API change:
Remove item_related_updated_batch event.
Rationale:
While this is an efficient event, it requires module developers to
support two event APIs for staying up to date and increases the
likelihood that they'll forget one and have data corruption. Force
them all through the slower but more reliable pipe, for now. We
can always try to improve efficiency by using the batch_start and
batch_stop events.
Old API: $obj->original("field_name")
New API: $obj->original()->field_name
This allows us to revert the varous xxx_updated events back to passing
an original ORM as well as the the updated one. This makes for a
cleaner event API.
Old API: comment_updated($comment) { $comment->original("field_name") }
Old API: comment_updated($old, $new) { $old->field_name }
1) The item_updated event no longer takes the old and new items.
Instead we overload ORM to track the original data and make
that available via the item. This will allow us to move event
publishing down into the API methods which in turn will give us
more stability since we won't require each controller to remember
to do it.
2) ORM class now tracks the original values. It doesn't track
the original relationships (no need for that, yet)
3) Added new events:
item_deleted
group_deleted
user_deleted
approach using html::specialchars and purify uses HTMLPurifier to intelligently
cleanse the output fields. Use purifier for text and title fields where it is
likely that a user would enter html to format their data.
Add xxx_installer::upgrade($version) method so that upgrade stanzas
are separate from install stanzas. In the old code, to do an upgrade
meant that you had to re-evolve everything from the initial install
because we'd step through each version's changes. But what we really
want is for the initial install to start off in the perfect initial
state, and the upgrades to do the work behind the scenes. So now the
install() function gets things set up properly the first time, and the
upgrade() function does any work to catch you up to the latest code.
See gallery_installer.php for a good example.
Install: <module>_installer::install() is called, any necessary tables
are created.
Activate: <module>_installer::activate() is called. Module
controllers are routable, helpers are accessible, etc. The module is
in use.
Deactivate: <module>_installer::deactivate() is called. Module code
is not accessible or routable. Module is *not* in use, but its tables
are still around.
Uninstall: <module>_installer::uninstall() is called. Module is
completely removed from the database.
Admin > Modules will install and activate modules, but will only
deactivate (will NOT uninstall modules).
