small bug where links in the archive and tag templates where being
rendered as url encoded strings, so that needed to be decoded so it
displays as normal text
the theme controller was grabbing the index by its page name, which was
bad because that might change. that was replaced with a getById function
since the index id will always be 0 since it's the first page. this is a
seperate function from getByUuid which is a unique indentifier for each
page which was being used interchangably before the fix. all of those
references have been cleaned up to reference which type of id is needed
there was also a bug that happened on rendering when there were special
characters in the title. this was solved by saving the title as a
urlencoded string and then just decodded when it was needed for display
on the front end
the module used to sanitize html is no longer maintained, so updated
that methodology to use symfony's very sexy sanitizer
checked to make sure render on save was working as well.
there was an error when reordering menu items due to a missing variable
to a service class, so that was patched
also removed unecessary code from api url definitions and settings
service class
API accessible tasks (create, update, delete) have been updated to the
new format.
The controller needs to be cleaned up because it's a bit heavy and the
new API flow still needs to be properly documented, but it's a good
start
removed all remaining API requests from the front end and removed the
FipamoAdminAPI js file, changing it to ContentRequest as it now handles
posting data to the system directly, authenticating it self by checking
the embedded CSRF token that regulary rotates
also renamed MaintenanceManager to Maintenance request and moved it to
the same dir as ContentRequest as they are both libraries that connect
to the backend
the current restore process only restored images and not the additional
file types that are allowed, so that has been added
also tweaked the reset request to include the correct token so the
request does not fail API authorization
the current file backup included images, but the additional asset types
such as sound files, video and docs were not being added if they
existed, so those have been added.
also tweaked the front end script to include the correct token for the
API so the backup request doesn't fail the auth check
content restore was already enabled, so the last step was completing
file restorartion if there was a file archive uploaded
now that this has been added, full site restore from backup archives now
works.
Patch for a bug that was deleteting the subdirectories of the theme css
folder holding additional theme assets when being published and tested in the theme kit.
also removed an unneccessary helper script and organized directory
actions in their own helper file to keep it all tidy
data sorting needed a new variable to differentiate between index page
rendering and standard page rendering, so that was added to the return
as well as updating the render script to include the variable that
wasn't being added for tags
also updated the git ignore file to ignore global images that are not
used by the base system. the script theme folder needs to be ignore as
well as that is going to updated by the theme itself for front end
coding and not used by the system
when pages where being unpinned from the main menu, there was an error
resulting from a missing method reference in the class
also rearranged some path references in the asset service class for the
sake of better organization
When testing themes, the script wasn't moving all assets that were in
subdirectories of the theme css folder, so that's been fixed so it moves
everything when testing a theme and rendering the site
there was also an issue with saving settings options because the script
was referencing email data that was no longer being provided from the
front end, so it was erroring out trying to save it. those references
have been removed so it's smooth sailing
in the restore init process, there is a space that restores assets from
a previous install but grabbing them directly from the site and saving
them to the install.
a check was added so this script only runs if that url has been set in
the init restore form
there were places in the codebase where path to fipamo specific paths
and file were hard-coded into the system, reducing flexibility and
customozation for people that want to define their own path.
those hard-coded elements have been removed and replaced with references
to the env file so those paths can be changed to whatever is needed
the .env.example file has also been updated to contain default paths for
easier installation.
Removed email settings from settings.json and moved them to the .env
file to use Laravel's mailer functionality.
references to the old mailer has been removed from settings.json,
data sorting class and the settings template file
the front end script has also been updated to accomodate different
message types, starting with a test message so members can make sure the
settings defined in the .env are working
when sorting tags on a fresh install, a fatal error happens when the tag
array is empty because it looks for a var that doesn't exist yet. that's
been patched
the settings json file was still referencing the old version of the base
theme, so it was crashing because it doesn't exist anymore. updating it
to the new theme name clears this error
the init process was erroring out because instead of re-running the
script to make a valid token, it was not capturing the correct error, so
it would just fail
also the folder for saving config files needed to be created to save
them, so that addition was made as well
uploading new member avatar and background images weren't uploading to
the correct location and the approprate files weren't being updated, so
that was been fixed.
the folks template in the init directory also needed be updated because
the system was looking for 'avatar' instead of 'avi' which was resulting
in some mismatch calls that were resulting in not found errors. the
variable is now 'avatar' everywhere for the sake of consistency.
setting sync is working but member data was not being updated in the
folks file or in the current active session, so that's been addressed
still need to turn on avatar updating as well, but that is tied to
updating the settings page, so that will be handled when image uploads
for that area are reactivated
a class for members was needed for long term handling of member
functions like login, update, status checking, etc so that class was
created and the AuthService class was removed as it was redundant and
it's functionaity moved to the member class
service classes are beginning to swell as there functionality is being
fleshed out, so a new organizational structure was needed to make sure
class sizes don't become too large and to increase site managability and
legibilty as more features get added and the code base grows.
data is for retrieving, managing site information, assets interact with external files
and upkeep is for maintenance.
some additional tweaks were also made to the options menu template to
prep it for it's transition to a toolbar component
added some labels to login and set up forms for better accesibility and
clarity about what info is being requested.
found a bug in setting where the site would error out if it can't find
the correct config files instead of going to set up, so when config
files aren't present, it loads template files to continue to process.
still thinking about a better fix for this
also discovered that the init files needed for a fresh install had been
removed, so those are back in place
conversion of markdown files to html works fine, but the coresponding
css, js and image assets were not being moved, so the class responsible
for moving them was edited so theme assets are moved to their
appropriate directories when the site is published.
also made some css and image edits, and removed a legacy css files that
were no longer in use
the back up process did not include saving document and video assets so
that needed to be updated to save all of those references along with
images
once that was done, the restore process had to be updated to look for
docs and videos and create the corresponding directories to move them
too
the script responsible for moving those assets was also streamlined so a
seperate process was not needed for each asset type.
the last update date in the settings template was displaying
incorrectly, so that was fixed as well.
rather than make a massive downloadable archive file for ever image on
the site (which still may happen), a method has been added to make
copies of imags from an external site and store them on the fresh
install based on the image list saved in the created back up file
it's clean but some additional error checking is needed so the process
does not crash out when a file can't be located and upon completion the
user can be notified of what images did not make it over in the process
ported over the backup functionality from the old build to the new while
making few tweaks
instead of packaging up all files in the site to create massive zip
files, now a list of files is created for the user and blog directories
that the system will use to download and put them in the appropriate
directories, resulting in a such slimmer backup file.
archiving images my be added at a later date, but will be kept seperate
from the current back up process
decided to keep the sorting service class as is and remix how it works to
return data objects rather than just settings information to render
pages.
the overall size of the class is still large but now there are
some opportunites to move around some methodolgy to reduce it.
also made the necessary changes in the render service class and the
theme controller to use the new methodology
moved methods of string service to helper function and got rid of the
string service class
still messing around with the sorter helper to see how dependecies work.
sorting as a helper may be a bit too complex for what help functions are
supposed to be
the last ui page that needed to be added was managing the main
navigation menu for rendered pages, so that's been turned on. menu
items can be added by pinning pages to the menu when editing them and
can be removed by unpinning them or deleting them from the navigation
edit ui
it touched quite a few systems so all of those classes needed to be
edited as well tweaking the front end script to work with the new
modular script format
turned on the abiity to save settings to config file via the settings
page
the current member session needs to updated by the data coming in but
that will be handled by a specific member service that hasn't been built
yet, so just commenting it out for now
also fixed a minor bug that was stopping the save on render toggle from
working correctly, so now it's saving and updating the status properly
now
with the setting page set up, now the the settings api can be added,
beginning with the ability to render all files from settings.
the base settings api class is set up, so now the rest of the methods
can be added
it's time to get the setting api running so site options can be editied
so the first step is to get the settings page up and running.
the sorting class is getting a bit heavy, but it will hold the method
for gathering settings page info for now.
page rendering for tags, archives and markdown pages is now up and
running and being exported to html when requested.
currently it only works when saving a page, so now the settings page
needs to be plugged in so those features can be activated and toggled
through that UI
error checking will probably be added in the near future just in case
something unforeseen happens in the render process, resulting in the
site erroring out.
theme controller was getting top heavy, so an asset service class was
plugged in to handle moving assets around for theme testing and
eventually to production when HTML rendering is set up
with the archive template up and running a bug with page creation and
editing was revealed which was certain options were not being set
correctly due to property not being set correctly when an markdown page
was being edited.
also added a null state check for page submissions that do not have a
layout set, so it defaults to 'page'
also patched theme service class to look for blade templates instead of
twig, which it was still doing
the remaining base template pages have beeen converted to blade as well
as filling out the data they need to render being added to the sorting
service class
theming controller and and sorting service still need to be optimized
but they work so now they can be refined
once they have been cleaned up, the render service is class is ready to
be finished
to complete page rendering, the default theme needed to be converted to
use blade templating. rather than update the theme kit as a seperate
progress, it will be integrated into this codebase so themes can be
developed and tested in app.
the basics for the theme kit are in place, so now conversion of the
defualt theme can be completed.
once the that is done, it can then be used to complete the rendering
engine to export HTML files
plugged in sorting class to gather the info necessary for the render
class to convert markown files to html and move them to the correct
location in the public diretory
editing page works but making new pages was still wonky, so that was
fixed and now page creation works fine
made some minor tweaks to prettier config for css formatting
