( Thoughts of Dharmil )

Today’s lab started with some general announcements that Individual Memo’s are due, and everyone describing what they did. In the weekend, I had taken a look at code, different methods of Ocelot, and tried to come up with replacements for the various methods. For example there was a need for the Breadcrumbs function, missing in the new Core. There were many functions that we couldn’t find and discussed as a team. Michael had finally updated the documentation.

1) He added how to copy over a Module (unix)

cp –R myepics2/Modules/ myepics2.1/Modules/

2) He added how to initialise the module in database:

Basically, we had to go to PHPMyAdmin, select the right database, go to the table Module, and click on insert tab. The id was supposed to be left blank, Name of the Module in the name field, version as 1.0, weight as 10 and title as the module name with spaces.

3) He also added how to copy a field from database:

4)He added a very important unix command which allows you to find any string in any php files. The command was:

find ./ -name “*.php” | xargs grep –n “”

We discussed our updates, discussed about how to add some functions, and decided to meet on friday to code some of them.
