Chapter 3. A short History

phpGroupWare started by Jengo (Joseph Engo) as an application to satisfy his girlfriends need for a webbased calendar/todo_list/email. - At the time it was called webdistro when Seek3r (Dan Kuykendall) discovered this promising project. - The two joined up together and between Seek3r's API design and Jengo's programming skills they renamed the project phpGroupWare and started building the application around the phpgwAPI. -

During this period Seek3r took over project management to free Jengo up to do more development. - This duo worked hard to build a sucessful community around the project. Their efforts paid off, and the project is what it is today due to the efforts of the developers who have joined this community. -

Chapter 25. The API

Introduction

phpGroupWare attempts to provide developers with a useful API to handle common tasks. +

To do this we have created a multi-dimensional class $phpgw->. +

This allows for terrific code organization, and help developers easily identify + the file that the function is in. All the files that are part of this class are in the + inc/core directory + and are named to match the sub-class. +

Example:$phpgw->send->msg() is in the + inc/phpgwapi/phpgw_send.inc.php file. +

Chapter 26. Configuration Variables

Introduction

phpGroupWare attempt to provide developers with as much information about the user, group, + server, and application configuration as possible. To do this we provide a multi-dimensional + array called $phpgw_info[], which includes all the information about + your environment.Due to the multi-dimensional array approach. getting these values is easy. +

Here are some examples: + +
<?php
+  // To do a hello username
+  echo "Hello " . $phpgw_info["user"]["fullname"];
+  //If username first name is John and last name is Doe, prints: 'Hello John Doe'
+  ?>
+<?php
+  // To find out the location of the imap server
+  echo "IMAP Server is named: " . $phpgw_info["server"]["imap_server"];
+  //If imap is running on localhost, prints: 'IMAP Server is named: localhost'
+?>
+

User information

$phpgw_info["user"]["userid"] = The user ID
$phpgw_info["user"]["sessionid"] = The session ID
$phpgw_info["user"]["theme"] = Selected theme
$phpgw_info["user"]["private_dir"] = Users private dir. Use phpGroupWare core functions for access to the files.
$phpgw_info["user"]["firstname"] = Users first name

Chapter 22. Guidelines

Requirements

These guidelines must be followed for any application that wants + considered for inclusion into phpGroupWare deluxe. +

  • It must run on PHP3 and PHP4.

  • SQL statements must be compatible with both MySQL + and PostgreSQL.

  • It must use our default header.inc.php include.

  • It must use our $phpgw_link($url) for all links + (this is for session support).

  • It must use "post" for forms.

  • It must respect phpGW group rights and phpGW user permissions.

  • It must use our directory structure, template support and lang + (multi-language) support.

  • Where possible it should run on both Unix and NT platforms.

+

For applications that do not meet these requirements, they can be + available to users via the phpGroupWare Apps project, or whatever + means the developers decide.If you need help converting your + application to templates and our lang support, we will try to + connect you with someone to help. +

Writing/porting your application

Include files

Each PHP page you write will need to include the header.inc.php along + with a few variables.This is done by putting this at the top of each PHP page. + + 
<?php
+  $phpgw_info["flags"]["currentapp"] = "appname";
+  include("../header.inc.php");
+  ?>
+
+ Of course change application name to fit. + This include will provide the following things: +

  • The phpgwAPI - The phpGroupWare API will be loaded.

  • The phpGW navbar will be loaded (by default, but can be disabled until a later point.

  • appname/inc/functions.inc.php - This file is loaded just after the phpgwAPI + and before any HTML code is generated. This file should include all your application + specific functions..You are welcome to include any additional files you need from within + this file.

  • appname/inc/header.inc.php - This file is loaded just after the system header/navbar, + and allows developers to use it for whatever they need to load.

  • appname/inc/footer.inc.php - This file is loaded just before the system footer, + allowing developers to close connections and whatever else they need.

  • The phpGW footer will be loaded, which closes several connections.

Translations

The translations are now being done thru the database, and will be configurable + to use other mechanisms.We are completing a program called Transy, which will + provide developers/translators a nice GUI for building and updating translations. + In the mean time you will need to create a SQL script yourself and name it lang.sql. + You can copy the one in doc/lang.sql and use it as a template. +

Chapter 23. Installing your application

Overview

It is fairly simple to add and delete applications to/from phpGroupWare.

Automatic features

To make things easy for developers we go ahead and load the following files. +

  • appname/inc/functions.inc.php - This file should include + all your application specific functions.

  • appname/inc/header.inc.php - This file is loaded by + $phpgw->common->header just after the system header/navbar, + and allows developers to use it for whatever they need to load.

  • appname/inc/footer.inc.php - This file is loaded by + $phpgw->common->footer just before the system footer, + allowing developers to close connections and whatever else they need.

+

Adding files, directories and icons.

You will need to create the following directories for your code + (replace 'appname' with your application name) + 
 `-- appname
+      `-- images
+      |   `-- navbar.gif
+      `-- inc
+      |   |-- functions.inc.php
+      |   |-- header.inc.php
+      |   |-- footer.inc.php
+      |   |-- preferences.inc.php
+      |   `-- admin.inc.php
+      `-- templates
+          `-- default
+
+

Making phpGroupWare aware of your application

To make the application aware of your application, add your application details to the applications table. This can be done via the GUI administration screen, or via a SQL script. +
  insert into applications (app_name, app_title, app_enabled) values ('appname', 'The App name', 1);
+

Hooking into Administration page

When a user goes to the Administration page, it stats appname/inc/admin.inc.php + for each application that is enabled, in alphabetical order of application title. + If the file exists, it is include()d in the hopes it will display a selection of + links to configure that application. + + Simple Example: + 
<?php
+  $img = "/" . $appname . "/images/navbar.gif";
+  section_start("My Application",$img);
+  echo "<a HREF=\"" . $phpgw->link("myAdminPage.php") . "\">";
+  echo lang("Change myApp settings") . "</a>";
+  section_end();
+?>
+
+ Look at headlines/inc/admin.inc.php and admin/inc/admin.inc.php for more examples. + + Things to note: +

  • Links are relative to the admin/index.php file, not your + application's base directory. (so use $appname in your + link() calls)

  • The file is brought in with include() so be careful to not pollute the name-space + too much

+ The standard $phpgw and $phpgw_info variables are in-scope, as is $appname + which corresponds to the application name in the path. + + There are 2 functions to coordinate the display of each application's links, + section_start() and section_end() +

section_start

section_start($title,$icon_url) + starts the section for your application. $title is passed through + lang() + for you. $icon_url should be page-relative to admin/index.php or + an absolute URL. +

section_end

section_end() closes the section that was started with section_start(). +

Hooking into Preferences page

The mechanism to hook into the preferences page is identical to the one used to + hook into the administration page, however it looks for + appname/inc/preferences.inc.php instead of + appname/inc/admin.inc.php. The same functions and variables are defined. +

Chapter 21. Introduction

phpGroupWare is a web based groupware application framework (API), + for writing applications. Integrated applications such as email, + calendar, todo list, address book, and file manager are included. +

Overview of application writing

We have attempted to make writing application for phpGroupWare as + painless as possible. We hope any pain and suffering is cause by making + your application work, but not dealing with phpGroupWare itself. +

What does the phpGroupWare API provide?

The phpGroupWare API handles session management, user/group management, + has support for multiple databases, using the PHPLIB database abstraction + method, we support templates using the PHPLIB Templates class, a file + system interface, and even a network i/o interface. On top of these + standard functions, phpGroupWare provides several functions to give + you the information you need about the users environment, and to properly + plug into phpGroupWare. +

Chapter 27. Using Language Support

Overview

phpGroupWare is built using a multi-language support scheme. This means the pages can be + translated to other languages very easily. Translations of text strings are + stored in the phpGroupWare database, and can be modified by the phpGroupWare + administrator. +

How to use lang support

The lang() function is your application's interface to phpGroupWare's + internationalization support. + + While developing your application, just wrap all your text output with calls to + lang(), as in the following code: +
  $x = 42;
+  echo lang("The counter is %1",$x)."<br>";
+ This will attempt to translate "The counter is %1", and return a translated version + based on the current application and language in use. Note how the position that + $x will end up is controlled by the format string, not by + building up the string in your code. This allows your application to be translated + to languages where the actual number is not placed at the end of the string. + + When a translation is not found, the original text will be returned with a * after + the string. This makes it easy to develop your application, then go back and + add missing translations (identified by the *) later. + + Without a specific translation in the lang table, the above code will print: +The counter is 42*<br> +If the current user speaks Italian, they string returned may instead be: +il contatore è 42<br> +

The lang function

lang($key, $m1="", $m2="", $m3="", $m4="", $m5="", + $m6="", $m7="", $m8="", $m9="", $m10="") + +

$key

is the string to translate and may contain replacement directives of the form %n.

$m1

is the first replacement value or may be an array of replacement values (in which case $m2 and above are ignored).

$m2

- $m10/ the 2nd through 10th replacement values if $m1 is not an array.

+ The database is searched for rows with a lang.message_id that matches $key. + If a translation is not found, the original $key is used. The translation engine then replaces + all tokens of the form %N with the Nth parameter (either $m1[N] or $mN). +

Adding translation data

An application called Transy is being developed to make this easier, until then you can create + the translation data manually. +

The lang table

The translation class uses the lang table for all translations. + We are concerned with 4 of the columns to create a translation: +

message_id

The key to identify the message (the $key passed + to the lang() function). This is written in English. +

app_name

The application the translation applies to, or + common if it is common across multiple applications. +

lang

The code for the language the translation is in.

content

The translated string.

+

lang.sql

Currently all applications, and the core phpGroupWare source tree + have a lang.sql file. This is the place to add translation + data. Just add lines of the form: +
REPLACE INTO lang (message_id, app_name, lang, content)
+VALUES( 'account has been deleted','common','en','Account has been deleted');
+ translating the content to reflect the message_id string in the lang language. + If the string is specific to your application, put your application name in for app_name + otherwise use the name common. The message_id should be in lower case for a small + increase in speed. +

Common return codes

If you browse through the phpGroupWare sources, you may notice + a pattern to the return codes used in the higher-level functions. + The codes used are partially documented in the doc/developers/CODES + file. + + Codes are used as a simple way to communicate common error and progress + conditions back to the user. They are mapped to a text string through the + check_code() function, which passes the strings through + lang() before returning. + + For example, calling +
echo check_code(13);
+ Would print +Your message has been sent + translated into the current language. +

Setup / Configure phpGroupWare

The config file

Copy the header.inc.php.sample file to - header.inc.php and edit the file, following the - directions in the comments. -

Create database in MySQL

An empty database will be needed for phpGroupWare. Here are the instructions for doing so with MySQL. - First create the database: -

mysqladmin create phpgroupware -p

- Then login to the mysql: -

mysql -p

- Finally grant the needed security rights: -

grant all on phpgroupware.* to phpgroupware@localhost identified by "some_password";

-

Create database in PostreSQL

An empty database will be needed for phpGroupWare. Here are the instructions for doing so with PostgreSQL. - Create the database: -

postmaster -i -D /home/[username]/[dataDir]

- You will probably need to review PostgreSQL documentation for futher details. -

The Setup Program

Then point your browser to phpgroupware/setup/ which will - create (or upgrade) the database tables. - You wil be asked to login, using the password set in - header.inc.php. Setup will attempt to determine what version - of the phpGroupWare database you have installed, and upgrade to the most recent - version. -

Note
 

The developers are concentrating on getting the beta - working, and have not spent a great deal of time building upgrade scripts from the - alpha versions of phpGroupWare. You are advised to backup your existing alpha - database before running the setup script to avoid problems! -

If you get no error messages, continue on to phpgroupware/setup/config.php - to configure phpGroupWare to your system. -

If you are using the email system you will need to create a temporary directory - where file uploads will be stored. For security reasons, you should chown - nobody.nobody and chmod 700 to that directory. Depending on your system configuration. - Default installs of Apache normally run as the user nobody. You may need your system - administrator to do this for you if you do not have root access. -

If you do not have access to root, create this file and run it. -

stalesessions.pl - There are 2 reasons for this file. -

  • Users always forget to logout. This way the session doesn't sit around forever, creating a possible security risk.

  • The email system requires plain text passwords which are stored in the sessions table.

- This file is not required, you can simply disable cron_apps in the admin -> applications section - to clean out the sessions table during login and logout -

stale_uploads.pl - This will delete file attachments for messages that where not - completed. If a users browser crashes, Internet connection dies, etc, their - files will sit there forever unless deleted. You could add a few lines to - logout.php that will look in the temp directory for any stale uploads and delete - them. But, once again, it becomes a performance issue. -
