Improving XOOPS Code: PHP CodeSniffer
Obviously, everybody has a different coding styles, but in order to make it easier for everybody to read it, we need to follow certain "Coding Standards".
The current XOOPS Coding Standards are here
But how to make sure that everybody does it correctly, and there are no mistakes?
Here comes the PHP CodeSniffer, which we'll use going forward before each release.
We would also like every developer contributing code to XOOPS (be it to Core, or as individual modules) to check his/her work before submitting to SVN!
1) Install CodeSniffer:
If you're using WAMP, here are instructions to install PEAR, and then CodeSniffer:
http://www.webeks.net/programming/wamp-pear-installation.html
NOTE: there are currently problems with installing PEAR on PHP 5.3:
2) Set Zend as your default:
3) Run CodeSniffer
See:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.php.php-codesniffer.usage.php
I didn't compare the Zend standard with ours, but since our is based on Zend, then they should be very similar. If there are differences, we'll create our own customized standard file, based on our "XOOPS Coding Standards", as described here:
http://clockwerx.blogspot.com/2008/06/how-to-customise-phpcodesniffer.html
As we are moving forward it's important that we start using more and more tools that will help us with improving our code and our development process.
As next, I am looking at "PHP Under Control"
Has anybody any experience with it?

The Austin Project
We released another site built on XOOPS -- for a non-profit that enables young people to do better at school -- mainly focused on Austin, TX, school district: The Austin Project. They had a home-built content management system that was very old and clunky. We started/finished this project about 18 months ago, and the group finally got the content going, so it's using an older version of XOOPS than I would setup these days, but it's a XOOPS site and works well.

AirnavSystems - Teleradar Live (news version)
After a little time on my site http://www.javaradiofrance.com, I proposed a radar map for planes which is refreshed every 1 minute automatically, and displays aircraft in line with a gap of 5 minutes (for reasons of air safety) (http://www.javaradiofrance.com/modules/myiframe/).
After several days of reflection, I decided to set the bar higher.
In addition to this same map, which seemed to me too static, I offer this time a new map, but this time animated (always offset this with 5 minutes).
The process is simple: I use the famous Windows Media Encoder to capture the image every X seconds, and everything is transmitted in streaming and real-time. What makes you see exactly the same thing as me in real time through the box and its radar antenna mounted on my balcony, all connected by USB cable on my computer.
Please note that there is no problem with IE browser, so you can enjoy it. I am not sure that it works perfectly with other browsers ...? Your feedback and confirmations are welcome.

http://teleradar.dnsalias.net:8080 (open its Windows Media Player and copy and paste this URL into it.)
Latest news: having more than one computer at the moment with me, it is possible that by the time my gear is not connected (requires PC family).
Good fun for aspiring future pilots.

YESSERA - Migration to XOOPS
I just released another small site built on XOOPS -- for a non-profit that helps enable people in Ethiopia to become more self-empowered and self-supporting: YESSERA. Mainly just an information and recruiting site and an interactive upgrade to their existing site. They didn't want much except to be able to edit existing pages easily and to have more ongoing news publishing.

Xurl - new XOOPS module
hhttp://designburo.nl is proud to announce a new XOOPS module called Xurl.
It is filed as a product of the EasyTCPtransfer category, since it fits the main goal of the EasyTCPtransfer principle.
The Xurl module for XOOPS is a module allowing your visitors to create short urls from long urls for use in e.g. Twitter. It can even sanitize complete texts with urls.
But that is not all..
Also, for module developers, it can be used as a function to sanitize complete e.g. Forumposts or blogposts before submitting it into the database.
Xurl will only allow registered user of your website to create shorten urls, but the shorten urls can be accessed by anyone.
It can also be called from other websites, but only with a registered username and password from your own website. This can be usefull if you have visitors that want to be able to shorten urls automatically from their own website, but they need to be registered with you. You control their access and the usage.
Besides the fact that it shortens the url, it also makes the url unreadable for users that have bad intentions.
The module can be adapted to use other shorten url links then the default 2lk.nl
Registered users can acces the module right here on the website. Just register (for free) and from the menu choose Xurl.
Many more options are available for this module and it will soon be released for the XOOPS community.

TDM: TDMDownloads 1.0
[size=xx-large]TDMDownloads 1.0[/size]
The TDM is pleased to present TDMDownloads, a download management module.
The features of the module:
Categories :
- Management of categories with the possibility of sub categories.

- Ability to report broken downloads.
- Ability to provide a download.
- Added the ability to make a short description of a download with a delimiter "[pagebreak] 'to define the magnitude of the short description. The short description reduces the size of the text description (downloads) on the home pages of the module and categories (with a link "more details" to see what follows).
Blocks :
- Top Rated Downloads
- The most downloaded
- Downloaded lately
- Random Downloads
Miscellaneous :
- System summary (same content as the blocks)
- Integration of CAPTCHA for anonymous users
- Possibility to use refer to a friend. If you have the module Tellafriend, it can enable this option for the link" Tell a friend" pointing to the submission form module.
- Plugin sitemap file included in the extra.
- Script to import from Mydownloads and WF-downloads.
- System administration simple and efficient.
- System permissions.
I forget a lot of features and the easiest way to get an idea is to test the module or to see the demo
Module Information :
- The module was tested with Xoops 2.3.x and can not run on a 2.0.x ...
- Available in French and English.
A big thank you to the following:
Kraven30 for his help and support. Burning for his ideas, Marianne for the English translation.
