- new $user parameter for egw_vfs::check_access($path, $check, $stat=null, $user=null) to check access to a file for a user, who is NOT the current user
- also added a different approach allowing apps to register themselfs multiple times in the link registry, was necessary as types approach from Nathan changes the usage of the original app, while this adds sub-types like an arbitrary app responded to the link hook
- using egw_vfs::urlstat instead of links_stream_wrapper::urlstat, to not depend on using links_stream_wrapper
--> required to do versioning on the links"
reads of entries from the database: Applications can call
egw_link::set_cache($app,$id,$title,$file_access=null)
from their search or read method, to eliminate the need to query the
entries again, when the egw_link class, link widget or links stream wrapper
needs title or file_access values later.
This offloads the caching to the link class, and improves performance a
lot, specially for infolog.
The cache is stored in the session and modified or deleted items get
removed, when the link class get notified about that anyway.
+ path with clickable components
+ human readable size, mode, ...
+ mime icon with integrated thumbnail creation
- link widget uses now vfs-mime for it's icons
- thumbnail creation is now switched on with size 32px by default, it can
be switched of by the admin or user, in doing so explicitly
- mime-icons are moved from filemanager to etemplate, as not everyone
installs filemanager
- filemanager has now 3 display modi:
+ Current directory (with subdirs always on top)
+ Subdirs sorted in
+ Files from subdirs (shows recursive all files and you
can click on the path components thanks to new vfs widget)
- if you already run the 1.5.003 update (AND modified anything in the VFS), you have to re-run it, to not loose your modifications or risk an inconsistent VFS (DB does not match filesystem)
- to re-run the 1.5.003 update (only if your version is already 1.5.003 or bigger!) run the following sql:
UPDATE egw_applications SET app_version=1.5.002 WHERE app_name=phpgwapi
- the new vfs supports now an extended ACL, if that is supported by the backend (sqlfs only currently)
- eacl allows to set separate recursive acl rights for different users or groups on a directory (and subdirs)
- former group grants of group dirs are converted to eacl, thought we only support read or read+write access (no extra add or delete)
- attachments via the links class now also use a stream wrapper interface (links_stream_wrapper) and WebDAV as download handler (which requires no longer filemanager run rights)
- new public egw_link class, which has only static methods and can NOT be instanciated
- depricated bolink class, for existing code instanciating the bolink class in $egw->link
- new method and application hook *titles* to retrieve the title of multiple entries of an app in one go
- new method *get_links_multiple* to retrieve all links of multiple entries of an app
