<h2><a name="tth_sEc1">1</a> Introduction</h2>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
eGroupWare 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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc1.1">
|
|||
|
|
1.1</a> Overview of application writing</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
We have attempted to make writing application for eGroupWare as
|
|||
|
|
painless as possible. We hope any pain and suffering is cause by making
|
|||
|
|
your application work, but not dealing with eGroupWare itself.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc1.2">
|
|||
|
|
1.2</a> What does the eGroupWare API provide?</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The eGroupWare 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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
On top of these standard functions, eGroupWare provides several
|
|||
|
|
functions to give you the information you need about the users environment,
|
|||
|
|
and to properly plug into eGroupWare.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h2><a name="tth_sEc2">

|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc2.1">
|
|||
|
|
2.1</a> Requirements</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
These guidelines must be followed for any application that wants considered
|
|||
|
|
for inclusion into eGroupWare deluxe:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<ul><p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must run on PHP4.1.0</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> SQL statements must be compatible with both MySQL, PostgreSQL, M$ SQL Server and SAP-DB</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must use our default header.inc.php include.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must use our $GLOBALS['phpgw']->link($url) for all links (this is for session
|
|||
|
|
support).</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must use "POST" for form submit methods.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must respect eGW group rights and eGW user permissions.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> It must use our directory structure, template support and lang (multi-language)
|
|||
|
|
support.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> Where possible it should run on both Unix and NT platforms.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> For applications that do not meet these requirements, they can be
|
|||
|
|
available to users via the eGroupWare "3rd Party Apps" listing on our
|
|||
|
|
website. If you need help converting your application to templates and
|
|||
|
|
our lang support, we will try to connect you with someone to help.</li>

|

|
|
|

<p>
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>Include files</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Each PHP page you write will need to include the header.inc.php along
|
|||
|
|
with a few variables.<br />
|
|||
|
|
This is done by putting this at the top of each PHP page.
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<?php
|
|||
|
|
$GLOBALS['phpgw_info']['flags']['currentapp'] = 'appname';
|
|||
|
|
include('../header.inc.php');
|
|||
|
|
?>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</pre>Of course change application name to fit.<br />
|
|||
|
|
This include will provide the following things:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<ul><p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> The phpgwAPI - The eGroupWare API will be loaded.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<li> The eGW navbar will be loaded (by default, but can be disabled until
|
|||
|
|
a later point.</li>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<li> 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.<br>
|
|||
|
|
<b>Note:</b> Depricated and not used for OOP (/index.php?menuaction=app.obj.method) calls.</li>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<li> 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.<br>

|
|

|
|
they need.<br>

<h3><a name="tth_sEc3.4">3.4</a> Making eGroupWare aware of your application</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
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. The script below should only be used during initial
|
|||
|
|
development. You should use the eGroupWare setup system for install and updating
|
|||
|
|
the final version of your application.
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
INSERT INTO phpgw_applications (app_name, app_title, app_enabled)
|
|||
|
|
VALUES('appname', 'The App name', 1);
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc3.5">3.5</a> Hooking into Administration page</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
When a user goes to the Administration page, it starts appname/inc/hook_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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Simple Example:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
<?php
|
|||
|
|
// Old linear script style
|
|||
|
|
$file['Site Configuration'] = $GLOBALS['phpgw']->link('myapp/myAdminPage.php');
|
|||
|
|
// OR - OOP Style
|
|||
|
|
$file['Site Configuration'] = $GLOBALS['phpgw']->link('/index.php',
|
|||
|
|
array(menuaction => 'myapp.uiobj.admin_method');
|
|||
|
|
display_section('myapp',$file);
|
|||
|
|
?&#gt;
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
Look at headlines/inc/hook_admin.inc.php and admin/inc/hook_admin.inc.php for more
|
|||
|
|
examples.

|||

Things to note:
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li> Links are relative to the admin/index.php file, not your application's
|
|||
|
|
base directory. (so use "appname" in your link() calls)</li>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<li> The file is brought in with include() so be careful to not pollute
|
|||
|
|
the name-space too much</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
The standard $GLOBALS['phpgw'] and $GLOBALS['phpgw_info'] variables are in-scope, as
|
|||
|
|
is $appname which corresponds to the application name in the path.

<h3><a name="tth_sEc3.6">3.6</a> Hooking into Preferences page</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
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/hook_preferences.inc.php instead of appname/inc/hook_admin.inc.php.
|
|||
|
|
The same functions and variables are defined.

eGroupWare attempts to provide developers with a sound directory

structure to work from.<br />
|

The directory layout may seem complex at first, but after some use,

you will see that it is designed to accommodate a large number of
|

|
|
applications and functions.

<h3><a name="tth_sEc4.3">4.3</a> Translations</h3>
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The translations are now being done thru the database, and may be
|
|||
|
|
configurable to use other mechanisms in future releases.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
You can use the developer_tools translations application for creating
|
|||
|
|
the "lang files", which will be installed through the setup application.
|
|||
|
|
Alternatively you can edit the files manually. The file naming convention for
|
|||
|
|
the lang files is <tt>phpgw_<langcode>.lang</tt>. The files are stored
|
|||
|
|
in the <tt>app/setup</tt> directory. The format of the files is as follows:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
english phrase in lower case appname ** Translated phrase in desired case.
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
<b>Notes:</b>
|
|||
|
|
<ul>
|
|||
|
|
<li>replace ** with the desired language code, as used in the filename</li>
|

<h3><a name="tth_sEc5.1">5.1</a> Introduction</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
eGroupWare attempts to provide developers with a useful API to handle
|
|||
|
|
common tasks.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
To do this we have created a multi-dimensional class $GLOBALS['phpgw']->.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Example: $phpgw->send->msg() is in the inc/phpgwapi/class.send.inc.php
|
|||
|
|
file.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc5.2">5.2</a> Basic functions</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>$GLOBALS['phpgw']->link</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
$GLOBALS['phpgw']->link($url, $args)<br />
|
|||
|
|
Add support for session management. ALL links must use this, that
|
|||
|
|
includes href's form actions and header location's.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
If you are just doing a form action back to the same page, you can
|
|||
|
|
use it without any parameters.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
This function is right at the core of the class because it is used
|
|||
|
|
so often, we wanted to save developers a few keystrokes. Example:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
<form name=copy method=post action="<?php echo $GLOBALS['phpgw']->link();?>">
|
|||
|
|
/* If session management is done via passing url parameters */
|
|||
|
|
/* The the result would be */
|
|||
|
|
/* <form name=copy method=post action="somepage.php?sessionid=87687693276?kp3=kjh98u80"> */
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||

<h3><a name="tth_sEc5.3">5.3</a> Application Functions</h3>
|
|||

<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>$GLOBALS['phpgw']->common->phpgw_footer</h4>
|
|||

|||
|
|
$GLOBALS['phpgw']->phpgw_footer()<br />
|
|||
|
|
Prints the system footer, and includes appname/inc/footer.php
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>$GLOBALS['phpgw']->common->appsession</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
$GLOBALS['phpgw']->common->appsession($data)<br />
|
|||
|
|
Store important information session information that your application
|
|||
|
|
needs.<br />
|
|||
|
|
$GLOBALS['phpgw']->appsession will return the value of your session data is
|
|||
|
|
you leave the parameter empty [i.e. $GLOBALS['phpgw']->appsession()],
|
|||
|
|
otherwise it will store whatever data you send to it.<br />
|
|||
|
|
You can also store a comma delimited string and use explode() to
|
|||
|
|
turn it back into an array when you receive the value back.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Example:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>

eGroupWare attempts to provide developers with as much information
|
|||
|
|
about the user, group, server, and application configuration as possible.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
To do this we provide a multi-dimensional array called "$GLOBALS['phpgw_info']",
|
|||
|
|
which includes all the information about your environment.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Due to the multi-dimensional array approach. getting these values
|
|||
|
|
is easy.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|

|

Here are some examples:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<?php
|
|||
|
|
// To do a hello username
|
|||
|
|
echo "Hello " . $GLOBALS['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: ' . $GLOBALS['phpgw_info']['server']['imap_server'];
|

//If imap is running on localhost, prints: 'IMAP Server is named: localhost'

7.1</a> Overview</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
eGroupWare 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 eGroupWare database,
|
|||
|
|
and can be modified by the eGroupWare administrator.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc7.2">
|
|||
|
|
7.2</a> How to use lang support</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The lang() function is your application's interface to eGroupWare's
|
|||
|
|
internationalization support.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
While developing your application, just wrap all your text output
|
|||
|
|
with calls to lang(), as in the following code:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
$x = 42;
|
|||
|
|
echo lang("The counter is %1",$x)."<br>";
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
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 $x will end up is controlled
|
|||
|
|
by the format string, <b>not</b> by building up the string in your
|
|||
|
|
code. This allows your application to be translated to languages where
|
|||
|
|
the actual number is not placed at the end of the string.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
When a translation is not found, the original text will be returned
|
|||
|
|
with a * after the string. This makes it easy to develop your application,
|
|||
|
|
then go back and add missing translations (identified by the *)
|
|||
|
|
later.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Without a specific translation in the lang table, the above code will
|
|||
|
|
print:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
The counter is 42*<br>
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the current user speaks Italian, they string returned
|
|||
|
|
may instead be:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
il contatore <20> 42<br&#gt;
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>The lang function</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
lang($key, $m1="", $m2="", $m3="", $m4="", $m5="",
|
|||
|
|
$m6="", $m7="", $m8="", $m9="", $m10="")
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [$key ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
is the string to translate and may contain replacement directives
|
|||
|
|
of the form %n.<br /></dd>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [$m1 ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
is the first replacement value or may be an array of replacement values
|
|||
|
|
(in which case $m2 and above are ignored).</dd>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [$m2 - $m10 ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
the 2nd through 10th replacement values if $m1 is not an array.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
</dl>
|
|||
|
|
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).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>Adding translation data</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
An application called <b>Transy</b> is being developed to make this
|
|||
|
|
easier, until then you can create the translation data manually.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>The lang table</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The translation class uses the lang table for all translations. We
|
|||
|
|
are concerned with 4 of the columns to create a translation:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [message_id ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The key to identify the message (the $key passed to the lang() function).
|
|||
|
|
This is written in English.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [app_name ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The application the translation applies to, or common if it is common
|
|||
|
|
across multiple applications.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [lang ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The code for the language the translation is in.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<dd> [content ]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
The translated string.</dd>
|
|||
|
|
</dl>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<h4>lang.sql</h4>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Currently all applications, and the core eGroupWare source tree
|
|||
|
|
have a lang.sql file. This is the place to add translation data. Just
|
|||
|
|
add lines of the form:
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
REPLACE INTO lang (message_id, app_name, lang, content)
|
|||
|
|
VALUES( 'account has been deleted','common','en','Account has been deleted');
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</pre>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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
<h3><a name="tth_sEc7.3">
|
|||
|
|
7.3</a> Common return codes</h3>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
If you browse through the eGroupWare 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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
For example, calling
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
echo check_code(13);
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</pre>Would print
|
|||
|
|
<pre>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Your message has been sent
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
</pre> translated into the current language.
