[Updated] =>tvEditor: beta 0.8 - tvExplorer alpha 0.1

Hi Folks,

Here are tvEditor and tvExplorer

I’m posting in this forum because I need help to figure out an issue with browse document feature in tvEditor.
The handleValue Function (in class/functions.class.php) returns an array to string conversion error but it happens only in the backend.
I’ve tried to fix it but without any success.

Any Help would be really appreciated. Fixed


WARNING:
This is still beta so I release this version without any warranty
Back up your datas First
The @BINDINGS are now displayed in tveditor module and I’ve not finished their integration So do not edit the options value fot this TV or else the @BINDINGS will be replaced by option|| ....


How to install tvEditor (if you already use the last beta see upgrade section)

- unzip tveditor_beta-08.zip
- Upload in assets/modules/ tvEditor folder
- create a new module named tvEditor (you have to refresh the page to see the new module in menu bar)
Copy and paste this code line in text area
Code:
include_once($modx->config[’base_path’] . "/assets/modules/tvEditor/tveditor.module.php");
- Run « tvEditor » et click install button

You ’ll have to define settings in configuration tab to define ditto params


How to upgrade

- unzip tveditor_beta-08.zip
- Upload in assets/modules/ tvEditor folder
- In configuration tab set tve installed to 0.
Run the Module and Click Install
in configuration tab, define ditto params

tvExplorer

Create a new a new snippet
Copy and paste the content of tvexplorer.php
I’ve written a little how to in the code

:-)

P.S: I will improve the html code of chunks in the public version

EDIT: I’ve updated the attachment

I forgot to mention that you ’ll have to modify in ditto.class.inc.php 1 line in buildUrl Function

Change:

$url = $modx->makeURL($cID, ’’, $queryString);

To:

$url = (isset($modx->documentObject[’id’])) ? $modx->makeURL($cID, ’’, $queryString) : ’index.php?id=’.$GLOBALS[’modID’].$queryString;

EDIT2: files updated see post below

Here is a sample Call of tvExplorer


Note: Ditto 2.0 is obligatory
and tvEditor must be installed

Sample Call

[!tvExplorer?
&dittoName=`Ditto`
&dittoSnippetParameters=`tpl:myTpl|depth:5|parents:10,20|summarize:25|extenders:date,summary`
&chunkExtra=`myExtraChunk`
&selectTV=`tv1,tv2`
&searchLabel=`Search`
!]

Sample extraChunk (each tv in a row) filter is obligatory

tv1::filter==1::question==Select a value for tv1
tv2::filter==1::question==Select a value for tv2

In your document or in your template

[!tvExplorerCallWithParams!]
[+tve.searchForm+]
[+dittoList+]

Know issues:

If you have enabled the PHx plugins, you ll have to call the snippet cached in an uncached page to make it work.

:-)

Great work !

I missed quite a few steps since you got started on this apparently I have to catch up there. Great to have this interact with Ditto Now what I need is TIME to give this and Ditto2 a run

Thx David,

It seems that some bugs remains 

Will post fixes asap.

:-)

The browse feature doesnot work anymore with dittoRC2 :-/

Hi,

Will post a final version in a few hours
Several bug fixed

What’s nice with ditto is that we can access QE from the result listing




:-)

Hi all,

here is new beta which is much more reliable.

The installation process is still the same except that you’ll have to add an extender to ditto (named tve.extender.inc.php located in tvEditor/ditto_extender)

Don’t forget to modify the line mentionned in the first post in ditto class.

It seems that dittoRC2 does not contain anymore the date.extender.inc.php
If so remove it in the module configuration tab in the in ditto extenders field

:-)

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

There is at least one think I could not solve
If you switch option position (by copy and paste) in the editing screen and then change the values.
Every values attached to document to value 1 which be replaced by value 2
Does it make sense :-D

For instance:
option1=>value1
option2=>value2

I’m changing the position
option1=>value2
option2=>value1

And then Changing the values
option1=>newvalue2
option2=>newvalue1

$Then doc with option1 which had value1 will now have newvalue2 and so on

:-)


P.S: It seems the css does not render correctly in IE so please test it with FF

Sorry I forgot to update the tvexplorer snippet
Here is the new file
The placeholder name for ditto result is now called tve.dittoList

[!tvExplorerCallWithParams!]
[+tve.searchForm+]
[+tve.dittoList+]

No one is interested

:-)

I am!
