$theme->block_type() so that the themer has a consistent interface.
Also added a bunch more callbacks and normalized the names so that the
module author has plenty of options for where stuff gets put on the
page. Especially renamed album/photo/sidebar to be album_blocks()
photo_blocks() and sidebar_blocks() to make it clear that those are
going to be larger content sections and not just basic insertion
points.
Used __call() to collapse all functions in the theme, which
incidentally makes it trivially easy to add a new insertion point.
Now we have an overall page layout (page.html.php) which has a $content
variable, and that $content will be one of several possible secondary
views. Currently, it is either photo.html.php or album.html.php.
header, footer, breadcrumb, sidebar, anything common to all pages is
in page.html.php.
sidebar.html.php file loops over $theme->blocks() which in turn calls
carousel::block() which uses the Block object to create a standard
block UI. Hooray!
Replace theme HTML with *almost* the latest stuff from the
mockups. (it doesn't include r18467 yet).
Our theme format is now modelled after WordPress / Habari's style
where you have one entry point per type (eg: album.php) which can
load up whatever parts it needs (eg: $theme->display("header"))
Created album and photo helpers which have create() functions
that form the base of our new API, along with tests for them.
Created our own version of the ORM_MPTT since the existing
versions were too buggy and unsupported to depend upon. Only has
a minimal implementation so far, and the tests are not yet
committed.
Added path(), thumbnail_path() and resize_path() to Item_Model
Extended the scaffolding to allow you to add lots of
photos/albums into your hierarchy.
Deleted modules/mptt -- we're not going to use this anymore.
the controller initiates a request to a top level page (eg:
album.html.php) which is then free to include whatever other page
chunks it wants with calls like <?= $theme->display('header.html') ?>
Variables like $item and $children are in the global space for all
views.
theme.php helper is now Theme.php library which lets us store the name
of the theme inside the variable itself. This means that the theme
does not have to know its own name because you can use $theme->url()
for all urls to stuff inside the theme itself, which makes it possible
to cline a theme without changing a single line.
Still using the mock album UI.
