Re: [midgard] Midgard and PHP4
On 13 Jan, Pat Padgett wrote: I was just wondering what will be happening with Midgard when PHP4 comes out. Has there already been work with Midgard and the existing PHP4 betas? I'm a neophyte to this sort of thing (php module programming, particularly) perhaps I'm wrong in thinking that there will be quite a bit of modification to Midgard (possibly a whole rewrite of code?) to get it to work with php4? Or is this what we're waiting for with Midgard 2.0 (PHP4 support)? Yes, I think we'll have to wait until Midgard 2 to get PHP4 support. Midgard 2 also changes its support for scripting languages so that we can have Midgard's PHP extensions as a module and patch Zend's language scanner instead (to add support for Midgard's extended PHP syntax). There is another thing that would be done with PHP4. We can separate support for (variable:modifier); syntax from Midgard-PHP module so that it could be used outside Midgard-based sites too (for example, one could compile PHP as cgi binary and use it from command line to test Midgard-oriented scripts without placing it into DB). It is tightly connected with planning extensible parser's support. Hence, at Zend level we'll do support for parsers, and at PHP module do all other Midgard bindings.

[midgard] Oracle port
Hello dev team, we are porting the MySQL Midgard interface to Oracle8. 1. Datatype With MySQL we use the TEXT datatype. With Oracle, there is: * VARCHAR2 with 4Kb searchable * LONG with 4 Mb no searchable * LOB with 4Gb no searchable We choose the LONG datatype. No objection? 2. Article extension We want also to have external tables to be linked to articles. Some local developpers ask me about this. Is this interface skeleton exists and frozen in V2? We want also the article extension to be searchable. Before starting this point, any ideas are welcome. Yes, we can use the php interface to oracle to do this, but we don't want to have extra database connections. The idea is not to rewrite a db interface, but a selective extract from one table based on articleid, topicid and a list of custom fields. This feature can be used also for Midgard tables like person when we have a lot of user. What do you think about this? 3. Date datatype and functions Midgard uses a lot of mysql date functions and features. It's hard to implement in Oracle, this takes more time than expected. In the next release V2, what is the direction for the sql syntax? 4. First Beta release A first package based on Midgard 1.2.5 is expected February, 15th.

i would like to know when your documentation about your program will be completet. is there a documentation in german planed? can you send me some links where i can see how your program works (some sites where it is already in use!) are you planing to put a binaries version of midgard for suse linux 6.2? please send me an answer soon as possible adrian de rivero email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Sent through Global Message Exchange - http://www.gmx.net -- This is The Midgard Project's mailing list.

With Oracle, there is: * VARCHAR2 with 4Kb searchable * LONG with 4 Mb no searchable * LOB with 4Gb no searchable We choose the LONG datatype. No objection? I think it would be OK. Search will be implemented using external search engine anyway. 2. Article extension We want also to have external tables to be linked to articles. Some local developpers ask me about this. Is this interface skeleton exists and frozen in V2? It exists but IMHO database structure not frozen yet as we have to add some fields to generic table's fields (like language code id). You can get it from CVS (midgard-2.0 branch). We want also the article extension to be searchable. Before starting this point, any ideas are welcome. We decided to create new set of functions mgd_get_custom_xxx() which will do such work. 3. Date datatype and functions Midgard uses a lot of mysql date functions and features. It's hard to implement in Oracle, this takes more time than expected. In the next release V2, what is the direction for the sql syntax? Jukka is very busy for the moment but he is responsible how SQL connections will be implemented. You may try to ask him directly. 4. First Beta release A first package based on Midgard 1.2.5 is expected February, 15th. It would be good to integrate Oracle support into upcoming Midgard 1.2.6. Could you fetch prerelease tar-balls from http://www.midgard.f2s.com/ and do patches? Then I'll integrate Oracle wupport into main branch.

At the moment it is easiest to get help by posting questions to this list. is there a documentation in german planed? Not at the moment.

On that note, it should be possible to work mod_midgard into mod_php3
so Midgard in it's entirety could be used as a CGI binary. Pros, cons?
I agree. We could create compability layer to mimic mod_midgard functionality
in PHP CGI binary. Of course, these functions should be used only if Apache
support in PHP is disabled but Midgard's one is enabled.
One should write his/her scripts in such manner:
?php
$cgi_midgard = mgd_get_midgard
("mysql://user:password@database","/path/to/midgard-root.php3");
$scenario = $cgi_midgard-translate_url();
eval $scenario;
?
This is a rough sketch though. You may notice different parameters to
mgd_get_midgard() and especially first parameter which will allow select not
only MySQL database but other supported too ("mysql://", "odbc://", "oracle://"
etc).
Your toughts?

[midgard] midgard question
I've been playing with midgard and creating my own layout by copying pices from
the example and admin layout. When I go to the admin page or the example page
I can view the source and see something similar to the following:
BODY{ font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;}
TD{ font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;}
TD.maintext{ font: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-size: smaller;}
A.navi{ text-decoration: none;}
A.navi:hover{ text-decoration: underline;}
A.footer{ text-decoration: none; color: #00;}
A.footer:hover{ text-decoration: underline; color: #00;}
A.navil{ text-decoration: none; color: #F0F0F0;}
A.footer:hover{ text-decoration: underline; color: #F0F0F0;}
H1{font-family: Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Sans-Serif;
but I can't find where this stuff is setup in the layout or content manager.
Thanks, Derek

It's a style document that's located in Layout Administration area,
