2010-09-17 - New Design

Note: This is an intermediate release, and is not deployed, i.e. installed on origo.ethz.ch

NEW: Brand new theme for Origo, Oxymoron
NEW: Annotate changed tags in email notifications #780
NEW: Visibility changes for wiki pages in Workitem #759
NEW: Revision Issue-Edits in Back-End #1099

API Change

By also revisioning issue edits, there are now two kinds of revisions stored in the `issue_revision` table:

Revisions of issue descriptions (the main/initial issue text)
Revisions of issue comments

This API change is somewhat tricky: it's the semantics of the returned revisions has changed. In Origo <=2010.3, the "oldest" revision (i.e. the first revision of a given issue) always contained the most recent issue-description. This has now changed - the issue.retrieve API call's response now contains a new flag for each revision, revision_text_type_N, denoting whether this revision is of a comment or the issue-description. The returned revision "#1" is thus the initially posted description, and to get the most recent description text clients have to process the revisions.

issue.retrieve
issue.retrieve(session: String, project_issue_id: int, project_id: int): struct[
issue_id: int, creation_time: int, last_modified: int, is_private: boolean,
user: String, title: String, tags: String, deadline: int, work_amount: int, revision_count: int,
revision_user_X: String, revision_creationtime_X: int,
revision_text_X: String, revision_tags_X: String

]

issue.retrieve(session: String, project_issue_id: int, project_id: int): struct[
issue_id: int, creation_time: int, last_modified: int, is_private: boolean,
user: String, title: String, tags: String, deadline: int, work_amount: int, revision_count: int,
revision_user_X: String, revision_creationtime_X: int,
revision_text_X: String, revision_text_type_X: int, revision_tags_X: String

project_name: String,
last_updated: int,
tags: String,
status: String,

API Change

With the new work item system, a number of API calls were changed. Note that while workitem.list and workitem.retrieve are retained, they completely changed.

workitem.list_project - Removed
workitem.list_projects - Removed
workitem.list
Was: workitem.list(session: String, limit: int, unread_only: boolean): array[workitem_list_struct]
New: workitem.list (session: String, project_id_list: array[int], unread_only: bool, filter_type: int, start: int, limit: int, sort_column: string, sort_order: string): array[simple_workitem_dictionary]

where simple_workitem_dictionary is:

{
  id: int,
  type_id: int,
  timestamp: int,
  project_id: int,
  project_name: string,
  user_id: int,
  user_name: string,
  reference: string,

{
{
  id: int,
  type_id: int,
  timestamp: int,
  project_id: int,
  project_name: string,
  user_id: int,
  user_name: string,

  is_new: bool,
  comment_type: string,
  log: string,

The values (constants) for project_type can be looked up in the back-end's database table of the same name. They currently are defined as

1 == Closed Source
2 == Open Source

The values (constants) for project_visibility can be looked up in the back-end's database table of the same name. They currently are defined as

1 == hidden
2 == visible

NEW: Custom hook function allowing other modules to interact with the Origo authentication process (fixes/improves #865).
CHANGE: Respect that there might be two revisions with the same ID when sending Change notification workitems (#768).

Frontend

Upgraded the frontend from Drupal 5.14 to 6.11; some bugfixes & features have been done as well.

NEW Updated all components to use Drupal 6 API (menu-definitions, themeing, form-api, etc.)
NEW dependency on <curl>php5-curl</code> because of the new project-creation script.
NEW modules
- dblog (replaces "watchdog")
- token (new dependency)
- formatting service (was not in install-profile before)
CHANGE Removed modules
- tql
- password strength (was moved to core)
- foaf
- openid & origo_openid
- sioc
- form_store (dependency no longer needed)
NEW Drupal 6 provides a more fine-grained permissions. These were adapted & expanded (e.g. before: comment_preview optional: one setting for all node-types. now: one variable per node-type).
NEW settings.inc variable "origo_project_creation_timeout" for arbitrary waiting time in admin project-creation form
NEW Added oriact-button
NEW Added proper dependency-declaration of modules to *.info files
NEW|FIX origo_home->origo_friends: Added link to user-search on my-friends page. fixes issue #625

FIX A LOT of code-formatting things to conform to drupal's coding guidelines. Also added "$ Id: $" to a lot of files (drupal coding standard).
FIX Improved content for Drupal & Views provided RSS-feeds. Fixes issue #630
FIX RSS-feeds for forums: disabled the default views content-feed for forum-nodes. fixes issue #603
FIX developer_pages: Enable option for "private" wiki-page if the project is closed-source. Fixes issue #448
FIX issue_tracker: Merged changes from live-system (giving deadline as 3 dropdowns y-m-d) into svn.
FIX issue_tracker: Properly calculate deadline value if the the issue is loaded from backend and doesn't have a deadline set, yet. fixes issue #603
FIX mediawiki_filter: heigth attribute for <img> was not assigned. while this is fine in FF (and i guess per html standard), IE did render these images as 1px high. we now calculate the height in all img-tags in the transform() function.
FIX mediawiki_filter: adapted image-scaling algorithm to respect upright images. fixes issue #621.
FIX origo_home->origo_admin: Aded kickass progressbar as eyecandy while waiting for the new project/site to be created. fixes issue #605

CHANGE Removed drupal files & modules that are not modified. as all core and "external" modules should be patched and not directly changed, only our own modules, theme, install-profile, etc. remain in subversion.
CHANGE Removed all traces of old theme "origo_simple"
CHANGE Drupal's menu-system changed heavily: New definition style of menu-items
CHANGE Google-Analytics & Google-CSE account details are now configurable via settings.inc
CHANGE Removed hardcoded links whereever possible: either made configurable through settings.inc, or use Drupal-relative paths (e.g. via drupal_get_path()). The only ones currently remaining are faq/tutorial/terms-of-use/etc. links.
CHANGE Views-module: major upgrade ("views" to "views 2"): new syntax and API
CHANGE: Unified patching of Drupal files:
- New folder $ORIGO_WEB_ROOT/patches that contains all patches to Crupal core & external modules
- Removed useless patch for forum module
CHANGE in project creation: the old script for creating drupal-sites doesn't work with Drupal 6 anymore.
- Replaced old method with function call to a new utility "drupal installer" tool (with adapted entry point), which does screen-scraping of the actual install.php via curl.
- Moved some sql-statements into origo.profile: only project-id related stuff remains in create_project.php
CHANGE in drupal cron script: it now takes the list of projects from the filesystem instead of querying the database.
CHANGE in pathauto replacement-template strings: use "[foobar-raw]" in most places
CHANGE customerror: configuration variables now also in install-profile
CHANGE Easy configureable domain via variable (instead of typing x-times "origo.origo-local.ch")
CHANGE Call rrdtool with "nice" command
CHANGE Switched "sign in"/"register" button to be consistent with "<user>"/"logout" button order.
CHANGE Removed breadcrumbs (buggy in Drupal 6)
CHANGE Use new schema-API for installing/uninstalling a module's tables
CHANGE All theme-functions of a module must be registered to the core via hook_theme().

CHANGE origo_home->origo_settings: Added link to request user_key (which was not in svn, but on live system(?))

Use Debian packages of all nodes, config-file changes.

CHANGE migrated origo-config from /etc/origo/origo.conf to /etc/aranea/aranea.conf
