Mollify version 2.0

[Samuli Järvelä]

This is discussion area for upcoming version 2.0. The progress can be seen at http://www.mollify.org/v2.php

[benme...@gmail.com]

when are you likely to release this version?

[Samuli Järvelä]

Like the page says, there is no set release date, it's released when it is ready. I'm doing this on my free time so it is not possible to estimate how long does it take.

Hi

The first,thank you for trying to provide the best web based file manager.

My question now: is there the automatic backup feature from user data?

and if not, Is it possible that you add in the next version?

[Samuli Järvelä]

There is no backup feature at the moment, and version 2.0 will only bring new UI, it does not add any new features. But perhaps on a later release.

But what kind of backup do you mean? Configuration (users, published folders etc) or the actual files? And where would the backup be done, and when?

For the configuration backup, I think the database's own backup would be best, ie running scheduled script (cron) that makes the backup, for example "mysqldump -u root -pPASSWORD --all-databases" on MySQL (and on sqlite just copy the files)

I think having this kind of feature in app itself would be difficult to make so that it is useful for all, there are so many needs and requirements on where and how to make backups.

[dast...@gmail.com]

Tanx for reply.

Yes. you're right.

I have another suggestion: possible to specify what kind of files that each user has right to upload or download.

[jerome.c...@gmail.com]

VERY excited about 2.0!  Thank you for your hard work!  

[noel....@gmail.com]

whooo you reach the alpha 4 stage ! it's time to check out this version so ;-)

previously i've checked the 2.0a2 but can't find a way to connect to the mysql db, if the problem is always there i would report it.

Thanks ! this is very great

[noel....@gmail.com]

just a little question, is the new "comment" would be able to comment on folders ?

[Samuli Järvelä]

Sure comments work on folders too.

And what comes to db, be sure to check out the example configuration as the syntax has changed in version 2.

[krma...@gmail.com]

I found a small bug: v2 doesn't work with postgresql. Mollify is looking for a directory include/pgsql/sql and that does not exist.

[Samuli Järvelä]

Actually only MySQL is so far updated, this is said in the v2 page.

[djenki...@gmail.com]

This is fantastic, and I whole heartily support the use of jQuery over GWT.  Our builds take forever when we release new versions of the GWT stuff.

Are you accepting help from outside sources?  

I used the first version and added my own service since our files come from a web service rather than a database.  I noticed there is a mollify.service object now, so will that be something that can be overridden?

Well done on 2.0.

[Samuli Järvelä]

Thanks!

Actually GWT is not alternative to jQuery. GWT is a platform that allows writing apps in Java, and compile them into highly optimized javascript. It is possible to use jQuery from GWT (also Mollify did). I really like the GWT, but the reason I dropped GWT is that it makes customizations virtually impossible, as all modifications must be made into the Java source and recompile.

So now it is possible to use plain js to extend or replace parts of Mollify, like the mollify.service. Class "mollify.service" in js is REST gateway, ie the one that makes the ajax calls to the backend. Hard to say if this is what you need to replace, but it certainly is possible.

[Samuli Järvelä]

I think this was due to IE mode problem with older versions, try adding this to html page head

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1" >

For the version 2, last alpha does not have sqlite support. I have added it, and will release new version soon.

In the 1.8 version, IE6-IE7 reports an error:

Protocol error

Resource not found:XXX.com/r.php/session/info/3/

Try using the V2 version, but it does not connect to the database

<?php
    $SETTINGS = array(
        "db" => array(
            "type" => "sqlite"
        )
    );
?>

 

Database configuration is not valid.

Database type "[sqlite]" is invalid. For more information, see installation instructions.

Alpha 7 has been released. This is the last alpha before beta release, actually only integrated admin needs finishing as well as few minor details, but the big picture is now ready.

[noel....@gmail.com]

hi this alpha 7 begin to be pretty complete !! 

what is the exact procedure to install and test a plugin in the DB beside adding his name in the mollify.App.init script ?

I'm trying share pluging but the update script doesn't do anything and clicking on the share button on a file throw a "Request failed" in the popup and "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden) http://localhost:8888/mollifyv2a7/backend/r.php/share/items/51c2a9e528c75" in the console...
On 

Please ignore this message if it's a know problem !

Thanks

[Samuli Järvelä]

Plugins need to be defined in backend configuration as well, in version 2 they are in the same $CONFIGURATION variable with other values, like this:

$CONFIGURATION = array(

"db" => array(

"type" => "mysql",

"database" => "mollify_test",

"user" => "mollify_test",

"password" => "mollify",

"charset" => "utf8"

),

"timezone" => "Europe/Helsinki",

"enable_retrieve_url" => TRUE,

"plugins" => array(

"Comment" => array(),

"ItemDetails" => array(),

"ItemCollection" => array(),

"Share" => array("uploader2" => "plugin/Plupload/public")

)

);

And in index.html like this:

$(document).ready(function() {

mollify.App.init({

"list-view-columns": {

"name": { width: 250 },

"size": {},

"file-modified": { width: 150 },

"comment-count" : {},

"share-info" : {}

}}, [

new mollify.plugin.ItemCollectionPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.PermissionsPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.FileViewerEditorPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.CommentPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.DropboxPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.ArchiverPlugin(),

new mollify.plugin.SharePlugin()

]

);

});

If it still does not work, make sure the plugin db has been installed (by running updater), and take a look at the PHP error log to see what is the error. After that if it does not work, open a new thread so this thread won't be crowded.

Beta 1 now released.

So I have installed V2 beta and have added an admin user.

My question now is - How do I add users and published folders etc.

When I log in there are no options except to change Admin password.

TIA

[Samuli Järvelä]

There should be "Configuration" option in the page header, so no more separate admin app. Now the admin pages are also localized.

On the main page after admin login I have a heading 'Files' which shows a blank page 'Published Folders', and I have a 'Configuration' option which Shows a block containing a list containing  'Use//Account/Admin'. The word 'Account' is hightlighted the words User and Admin are greyed out.
On the left of the block is a frame headed 'Account' which shows the User Admin with a button to change the password.

That is all that appears and the Admin password change is all that can be input.

On the right is an option 'Admin' which only shows an option to change the admin password.

So I am a bit baffled at present.

[pe...@pewe.co.uk]

UPDATE.

I just noticed a 'Blank' line at the bottom of the list (ie an area which can be clicked and is then highlighted but has no description).
This oprion opens a 'Users' window showing the user 'Admin' with an option to add more users.
However when I enter user details in a popup, it does not save and the popup will not close on cancel.

[pe...@pewe.co.uk]

UPDATE 2:

Clciking on the user 'Admin' opens a pnel to add folders and Groups, but this is empty and selecting the '+' button does nothing.

[Samuli Järvelä]

Yes, that's where you should have items like "Users", "Folders" etc. I'll have to check if there is something wrong with the release package.

[pe...@pewe.co.uk]

Thanks Samuli.

Just for information I uploaded the complete package and used the example index.html and the example SQL configuration.php (just putting in my own server details).
The package was uploaded to a directory which contains additional sub-folders on the same level as the mollify package.

[Samuli Järvelä]

Couldn't see any problems in test environment. We could continue this conversation in issue I created (https://code.google.com/p/mollify/issues/detail?id=454) so this thread won't get too long.

[Samuli Järvelä]

Mollify beta 2 uploaded, fixes the admin issue.
