|
|
|
|
<P>phpGroupWare is a web based groupware application framework (API), for writing applications. Integrated applications such as
|
|
email, calendar, todo list, address book, file manager, headline news, and a trouble ticket system are included.
|
|
<H2><A NAME="ss1.1">1.1 Overview of application writing</A>
|
|
</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>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.
|
|
<H2><A NAME="ss1.2">1.2 What does the phpGroupWare API provide?</A>
|
|
</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>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.<BR>
|
|
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.
