Refactoring components in Joomla! 1.6

[Gergő Erdősi]

Hi,

As it can be read in the developer summit blog, the releases from the
alpha version are time framed, so we have nearly six weeks to the next
release (which will probably be a Beta). There are many tasks and
that's why we need a lot of help. One of these tasks are refactoring.
There are still many components in the back-end, which hasn't been
refactored yet to MVC (or they have MVC file structure, but their code
is not really MVC). The main components are already refactored
(content, categories, users, menus, weblinks, newsfeeds), some are
under refactoring (banners, contacts) and the list which are waiting
for someone to refactor:
- com_admin
- com_login
- com_massmail
- com_messages
- com_modules
- com_plugins

If you are interested in refactoring some of these components, please
make a note here (to let others know that you are working on it) and
add me to Skype (gergo.erdosi) or any other developers. We appreciate
any help! Thanks!

Hi Gergo,

I can refactor one component, I already know com_login (I developed an
extension "Authentication Manager" http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/auth_manager/
which is mainly in this topic)

How do I proceed?

Ch.D

[Gergő Erdősi]

Great, thanks! Look at the extensions (weblinks, content etc.) which
are already refactored to see how the code should look like and how
they work. If you have any specific questions or problems, just post
them to the list.

I have refactored the com_login using com_login in the experimental
branch. I add a model to be more MVC1.6!

http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=16984

I can do the same thing on com_admin if you want ?

Gergő,

I can do the com_modules component if you want. I'll probably have it
at the end of next week.
And the com_plugins is kind of similar, so I can do that one after
that if nobody did it before that time.

Cheers,

[Gergő Erdősi]

@Christophe: Thanks, that was quick! :) I can look at the patch just
later today. Sure, go for com_admin! :)

@Ronald: Yes, they are similar, the only difference is that modules
has two main types: admin and site, but basically the structure of
these components are the same, so if you do one, the second will be
easy. :) The end of next week is fine. When you are ready, just post
it to the feature patch tracker (you can find the link some posts
earlier). Thanks for you too!

Anyone for com_massmail or com_messages? :)

Should we think about doing a quick plugin refactor too?  There are some still doing 1.0 style.

Ian

2009/6/26 Gergő Erdősi <gergo....@joomline.org>

[Gergő Erdősi]

You are right, some plugins also need refactoring. I'm going to post a
list in a new thread to keep this one for components only.

Hi Gergo,

After discussing with Sam, I'm also working on the refactoring of the
com_languages admin component. I hope there is not another person who
is doing the same work at the same time.

The reason I didn't mention com_languages on the list is that Andrew
wrote about a week ago that he is working on it. So I would suggest to
talk to him before you start.

I've committed a large patch for com_messages on eddieajau. Mostly
conforms to the new MVC standards, but could probably use some
additional cleanup.

Thanks guys. I've been snowed with the menu manager refactoring this
week. I'll take a look as soon as I can.

Accessibility secret: if you have an <a> tag in your html, make sure
it has an href attribute, even if it's just a #. (<a href="#">).

The backend components using a switcher to go between submenus rather
than db registration tend to be missing this. If you are refactoring a
navigation file, please add the href="#".

<a id="phpsettings"><?php echo JText::_('Admin_PHP_Settings'); ?></a>

should be changed to:

<a href="#" id="phpsettings"><?php echo JText::_
('Admin_PHP_Settings'); ?></a>

I submitted a patch for the com_admin layout nav file.

As an aside, I just noticed that the html in com_admin/view/
application/tmp/default_navigation.php is missing some divs that the
khepri template is expecting. There are an additional eight (8!) divs
needed for the submenu to display properly. Including duplicate name
as id & class. I'll create a second patch for that. Rounded corners
have a lot to answer for. Sigh. I hadn't noticed it at first because I
was using my new template that doesn't use all those divs..

[Christophe Demko]

When I refactored the code of com_admin, I did not change any html
code: I only refactored the code to be MVC1.6 compliant.

So sorry for these missings div and the missing href for <a> tag

[Gergő Erdősi]

I fixed this in SVN, thanks Andrea for the patch! In addition I added
onclick="return false;" to the links to prevent jumping on clicks.

Yeah, there are a few different places in the old code these occur. I’m picking at them as I find them.  And it’s those divs that should be sorry about existing.

 

Good to know about the onclick=false. I’ll remember to think about that.

Hi all,

Today I took a look at components and I can say all of you did a great
job! Thanks again! There are only 3 components that haven't been
refactored yet:

1. com_banners: Rob, what's its status?
2. com_contacts: Mark is working on it.
3. com_massmail: I have no information on this component. Is anybody
working on it? If not, would anybody like to refactor it?

I commited com_languages and com_messages from the eddieajau branch to
trunk. However if you find a bug in a refactored component, please
post it to the tracker instead of using this branch. It's much easier
to handle patches than merging branches. Thanks!

[Christophe Demko]

I can work on com_massmail but I can only start from 25 of august (I'm
on holidays...)

[Andrew Eddie]

There may be some sense in merging com_massmail into com_users because
it's really just a system to email a group of users. The function
then becomes something like "Email Groups".

Just a thought. Saves having a full component for it and ACL can come
under com_users banner.

2009/8/12 Christophe Demko <chd...@gmail.com>:

The problem with merging com_massmail and com_users is that they have
two separated distinct component parameters. For the moment, I choose
to refactor com_massmail keeping the component.

Hi Christophe,

I merged your work from the erdsiger branch back to trunk. But Gergo
said that there might be broken parts. Can you please review it?

Thanks.

[Christophe Demko]

Ok, I will be on next day.

[Christophe Demko]

There was some errors in the code. I post a patch in
http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=17818
(I marked it as 'open') (http://joomlacode.org/gf/download/trackeritem/
17818/45134/users_massmail.diff)

[Ercan Özkaya]

Hi,

We have some refactored code for com_modules but it's not complete
(not using JForm etc.) So I started to refactor it but I probably
won't be able to finish it soon. I committed my changes to modules
branch. It's about 60% complete. Anybody is willing to work on that?

[Andrew Eddie]

Good stuff Ercan.

I'm working backwards up the alphabet in the backend. Plan to fix
com_redirect and finish refactoring com_plugins next week
(com_newsfeeds, com_users and com_weblinks are all complete). I'm
happy to take com_modules because it has a funny trick that you need
with JForm. I'm hoping to have all the backend components
"consistent" by the end of the month.

If anyone wants to have a go at com_banners though I'd be grateful and
Sam, I'll probably need to leave the lion's share of getting
com_installer up to spec to you.

Thanks Christophe. That would be great.

com_users is probably the best to mimic in terms of having a
multi-controller component for the banners and the clients. If you
get stuck, let me know.

Just a comment: I don't add a language and xreference field to the
tables (see http://groups.google.com/group/joomla-dev-cms/browse_thread/thread/6c5557cf08e9a64f).
Will banners use a language field? If yes, my patch has to patched ;)
