plugged in the dash index template which required grabbing markdown
pages and converting them to data the system can use and then pagination
that is used to sort content into pages
start page now switches from login screen to index based on session, but
that might be changes so it's a bit more clean to work with middleware
Plugged in a basic auth classs for verifying members and a setting class
to retrieve site settings and return necessary info.
Very bare bones to start just to get it working and prep for the
additional features
Removed the Slim Framework from the codebase and installed the latest
Laravel version to be the new foundation for the project moving forward.
Code from the old version will now be ported to the new version.
Composer dependencies were pretty old, so they needed to be upgraded to
the latest.
There was also a minor bug that was triggered when a new page was saved
with empty tags and no images or documents, so that's been patched as
well.
I didn't like the extra step that had to be taken to register new
classes from the command line using composer's auto dump, so a quick
script was implemented to handle Fipamo loading classes seperately so
composer can manage itself, removing the need for updating it whenever I
add a new classs to the codebase
Composer package dependencies hadn't been updated in awhile, so a part
of the clean up for the php 8.1 install, that has been handled
Moment was being used to handle date formatting but it hasn't been
updated in awhile either, so I switched to Carbon which is still in
active development.
I updated the versioning to match in both composer.json and pacakge.json
config files. I need to start cleaning up the dependencies in the front
end scripting as well, so I started my updating them to see much work
needs to get done. Not too bad, but it's going to be a pretty
significant effort.
