Needs Improvement

Workable solution needs improvement

Project management session at DrupalCamp NYC 5

Eric:
all these people focusing on fixing a bug

this is my heretic speech.

Project module doesn't support threaded discussions.

Nat: Fairly common that issue trackers are flat.

What are people using?
Unfuddle.
Interpulse - time tracking, create issues and assign them.

Eric: I won't use something I don't control. Can't even put HIPAA stuff on a server, it has to be my own server.

Long-term dedication

Module development session at DrupalCamp NYC 5

Steven W. Merrill gave it and it was very good. That's all you need to know, plus this:

Notes and the module he developed in front of us, greatly extending the page_example module available from Drupal's API, are available here:

To everyone who visited the module building session, here are the the two files that we built:

How to configure nice menus

Installing and configuring Nice Menus: http://drupal.org/project/nice_menus

Download or drush or otherwise acquire and get it into sites/all/modules. Enable at http://example.com/admin/build/modules and no configuration is even necessary.

How to configure admin menu?

Hi Ben,

I added admin_menu to the Radical Reference site, but I couldn't find
where/how to configure it. I did manage to give full_administrators and
technicalsupport roles access to it. Can you advise? Or are you going to
make me rtfm?

Thanks, Jenna

Testing session at Drupal Camp NYC 5

Why click on forums every time?

Why create a user every time to make sure it isn't

Me: And I thought it was just so

  • Functional tests - what users do
  • Unit tests - (not doing so much)
  • Security tests - insert javascript, cross-site scripting, SQL injection, penetration testing on every form field: if it sees the form it

Assertions are the base of any testing framework.

Views 2 discussion at Drupal Camp NYC 5

Views 2 Relationships: Let's you get information that's one step away.

For instance, you can get content based on when users joined or something.

Add a relationship for Queue.
Add the Questionable Content queue.

Now we can use the in-queue filter: it has to be in that queue to show up in the view.

pretty slick.

And then you can sort for nodequeue.

Generally if you're thinking of writing an SQL filter do do what a views does, you can figure it out yourself.

Notes

Javascript used to be adding elements to web pages that if the browser didn't have javascript, they just weren't there.

Graceful degredation now losing favor to Drupal enhancement.

HTML is semantic markup.

D7 Taxonomy Menu reworking for usability: tabs for vocabulary and term editing

Note: This note is not to my usual audience (ok, well it's still to myself...). Usually notes on Agaric are about working with Drupal, extending it, making modules or themes. This note is about developing and improving Drupal core itself. Although if you happen to be building any module for Drupal 7 right now, say because for instance you are insane, you would run into this issue also.

To those in IRC last night, I really wasn't crazy.

Nothing I could do through the user interface would touch the menu_router table.

Testing a patch and adding a simpletest

Testing a patch and adding a simpletest with Catch as my guide.

Steps taken, starting with checking out Drupal 7 dev (or head, until the code freeze).

(I got the link to the patch for the wget below from the issue, in this case http://drupal.org/node/305740 )
