Version 4.0.3

Release in Friday March 5, 2010.

Completed

  • when editing a database list with a select field, not choosing a select field should display everything (e.g. not choosing the location to limit the facilities shows all the facilities)
  • allow list members to be disabled so that they don't appear in the default drop-down menu.
  • add option meta/form_any so that a mapped field can take values in any form
  • make the flat form storage mechanism writable as much as possible
  • add a UUID module so that any form can be assigned a uuid via the form uuid_map
  • fixed up processing of <eval> tag for external module requirements
  • fixed issue when classes were not loaded when a install was restarted
  • added CSV form storage mechanism
  • added eval form storage mechanism
  • created locale form (via eval form storage) for selecting available/selectable locals
  • Windows: allow relocatable paths so USB-Toolkit will work
  • added moveData()/exportData()/importData() for form storage mechanisms
  • Add in different role/password authentifications for users
    • DHIS users
    • LDAP
  • there is now an adminisitrtive user 'i2ce_admin' whose password is the password used to access the db
  • Mysql's unix socket often lives in /var/lib/mysql (or elsewhere), not /var/run/mysqld. (jstrope) -- fixed by adding intializeDSN() to I2CE class which allows you to pass a DSN. we can now handle RHEL setting the dsn if we ever package .rpms for it.
  • Cleanup user and user_form.
  • Make iHRIS work out of the box on RHEL:
    • Fedora has no /etc/timezone -- that info lives in /etc/sysconfig/clock (but you can't just do a file_get_contents on it -- has comments and dditional info and the time zones don't always match the format returned by date_default_timezone_get) (jstrope)
    • iHRIS didn't give much of an indication of why the initialization failed. If you had an error handler that said "set your date.timezone setting in php.ini", that would probably suffice. (jstrope)
  • upgrade mootools to 1.2.4
  • Remove all mootools' $ references from javascript dollar sage mode
  • Add workplace accident module to ihris manage
  • Add disciplinary action module to ihris manage
  • FormCache is smarter: forms are marked dirty when they are saved and clean when they are cached. this way we don't need to even bother trying to re-cache a form if it has not been saved since the last time it was cached.
  • Magic Data Browser: the path is now a bunch of links so you can easily skip to the top.
  • FormStorageEntry: flattened out the sub-query into a single query so that indices on last_entry can be taken advantage of in a where clause
  • modify limit templates to display differently for report view limits and relationship editing.
  • function signatures fixed for validate() method of personPostion,application
  • function signature fixed for filedump->display() and ajax_text->display()
  • function signature fixed for formfield_currrency->createdomeditable()
  • made collation utf8_bin (instead of utf8_general_ci) across all columns in hippo tables (cuts report generation times by half)
  • cleaned up code for setting default values for form fields (now lookup value is handled by MAP)
  • added indices to entry table to speed up cached form generation (form_field,string_value) and (formfield,integer_value)
  • speed-up for getting max in int_generate so that it uses the (formfied,integer_value) index
  • changed magic data to be stored in config_alt table rather than config table to deal with:
    • config table did not allow children with commas in their names
    • performance was slowed as the size of the config table grew
    • increase the speed when doing a join with a parent and child (form storage magic data)
  • call page stretch when the page goes through an ajax update
  • fix issues with the updater/configurator when moving to a new version of the software library while the old version stayed in the same place
  • fixed issues with classes of dependent modules not being loaded on a module update
  • added a 'Recent Forms' menu option to the search page so you can see which forms (e.g. person or position) have recently been edited/created. useful if they are not yet in the search report
  • moved all of the SearchPages classes from manage and qualify into common with the search reports being displayed by magic data
  • fixed error checking/null checking when getting the last modified time for a form stored in magic data
  • allow to check the modification time on individual fields of a form or of the record for entry
  • fixed pagination issues when view lists in the 'Administer database'
  • Removed caching all forms from the generate_complete background process since each form makes sure the required forms are cached. Removed the restriction of passing multiple forms to the generate custom reports command lin
  • fixed header for CSS that was breaking Chrome and Safari
  • various fixes of function signatures
  • marked all translatable nodes in configuration .xml files.
  • fixed up translation of .html and config .xml files from .mo files

Version 4.0.7

Plan for release in September 2010

Completed

  • iHRIS Qualify: Fixed typo in hide javascript for scanned archives. Made record verify and deployments only show the most recent information. Set registration for to be accessible from the entire view person page.

Version 4.0.8

Plan for release in November 2010

Completed

  • Fixed binary files so if no file is chosen it will look for the tmp_key when a file is confirmed and then edited. Added an invalid error message when the file fails to upload.
  • Added some helper methods to I2CE_List to find matches for a field based on the displayed fields for a form and add a within limit option for MAPs. This allows you to perform a limit on report results (or other limits) that will match on a location field that can be either district or county so if you choose a district it will match any counties that are in that district as well as the district.
  • Fixed confirm and linking of binary fields (Document and Image)
  • Made the selection tree work in chrome
  • List cleanup -- everything use the display_string/dipslay_args now including monster mash, selection tree

  • Make StretchPage work with Chrome and IE8
  • allow option to make PDF reports download or inline
  • handle parent in where clauses for db like storage mechanisms
  • max and min parent limits in form relationship can now have an offset so you can do thing like previous position -- start_date is max_parent with offset 1
  • use css borders to make it clearer which form you are within in a form relationship
  • include file sources for html templates
  • fixup when joining on a child field where the parent form is the primary form in a relationship
  • in field limits, a data element 'linked_field' can now choose to be any of the fields of the form or the parent field. this applies in particluar to max_parent and min_parent which were before assumed only to be the parent field. this is useful for example when joining person_position to the position form, and you want to limit person_position so that the start_date is maximal among all person_position forms with the same value for person_position+position
  • fixed join on a child field in form relationship
  • Added argument to magic data unpopulate method to cleanup the objects for garbage collection. Added unpopulate (with cleanup) calls to migrate methods to free up some memory while migrating large sets of data.
  • added record status module
  • made it so archive scans can either be a document or an image
  • Added display_string and args and sort_fields for regions, districts and counties.
  • add exam results to training module
  • Added in hooks to call after a child form is added to the person view page.
  • Updated facility report to use within for the location instead of equals.
  • Updated the getSalaryGradeID method for iHRIS_PersonPosition to not use the lookupField method but the fields in the necessary objects. Updated action_person_position in the PersonPosition module to work with the returned value already including salary_grade
  • Fixed a typo in the view salary_grade template to display the midpoint. Bug 668386. Also changed the order on the form display for salary_grade
  • Modified the display string for positions to include the facility and department. This is in case any customized sites want to have the position code not be required.

  • Modified the sub joins for a relationship to not do a left join if there are no joins to be joined on.
  • Add a couple functions to I2CE_List for buildDataTree to remove duplicates at the same level or lower so the same value didn't show up multiple times.

  • Added in an option to provide limits for a reporting function in a relationship for the created MAPPED form field. The only way to add/edit this information is in a module or directly in magic data.
  • Fixed the relationship getFunctionDetails method to return the functions in the dependency order so required functions appear first so they will be populated first and the dependent functions will then work.
  • Added in a DELETE statement for custom reports when the drop_empty field is set for the form. As far as I could tell drop_empty (required in the report editor) wasn't doing anything so this should fix that.

  • added fr_ML as a default available locale
  • Minor javascript tweaks to correct some issues with IE.
  • Sorted the limit display args based on key so it won't be based on how it was saved in magic data and will be based on what index was set.
  • Added translateable descriptions for limits and added a fuzzy method to return the given selected data based on the description. Updated custom reports to use these new descriptions. Fixes Bug 828008
  • when a varchar field is not indexed, change it to a text field to keep the row size down -- fixes failure of generation for large reports. Fixes bug 824598

  • Field Validation:
    • Added isValid check for REFERENCE fields to return if not valid
    • Fixed DBValue check in FF_save for magic data storage
    • Modified the FF_save methods in form storage to allow saving a value that is blank even when isValid returns false becuase a blank value is commonly invalid by that function, but blank values should be allowed to overwrite when needed.
    • Update currency form field to return when not valid
    • modified getDBValue for MAP and MAP_MULT to return when it isn't valid instead of '|' so this blank check will work correctly.
  • Form Submission:
    • moved submitbutton javascript to core. it now also processes the action and method classValues
    • formworm was not passing the input type=sumbit name/value in chrome. it will now insert a hidden element to pass the values before submission
    • load classvalues javascript before submit button
  • Reports:
    • make ajax search work with tree view limits
    • Updated field limits to add in equals and in options for MAP_MULT to work logically. This makes it so that if the field is a MAP_MULT then if any of the entries equal the given value (or any of the in values) then it will return as matching
    • Report Selector multiple improvements:
      • added an optional clear button. moved hard-coded DOM to templates
      • field will show a clear button if the field is not required
      • you can now chose to show limits or not

4.0.18

Completed

Released Sept 15, 2011

4.0.19

Completed

Released Oct 19, 2011

  • fixed handling of output buffering when the bottom-most ouput buffer is not the default. for example this happens with new installs of ubuntu 11.04 (natty) with zlib compression turned on by default
  • attempt to validate sort fields against displayed fields when sorting report view/save default options. fixes bug 867439
  • modified display for report view so that you can select 'none' as sort order. removing all sort orders will also go to none

4.0.21

Released Dec 5, 2011. Changes from 4.0.19 include:

  • new translations from http://translatewiki.net Thanks Siebrand!
  • faster report generation:
    • Modified the report cache queries to speed things up. Now updates are done instead of insert at each step. Also, less tmp tables are created since the update doesn't need a new table. When there are complicated joins then the 'old' way is still done.
    • removed md5 calculations except when the next set of queries
    • Stopped using updates when it's a right join.
    • Fixed the str_ireplace to use spaces to avoid changing case when it wasn't an AS. Also had it display the total updates made like totals rows changes for INSERT.
  • added single user access and auto-login features
  • killed off some spammy error messages related to forms not being registered yet in the entry form storage mechanism
  • custom reports:
    • fixed issue in determining if report function is numeric
    • added in some additional error messaging and validation for reporting functions
    • change E_USER_ERROR to NOTICE to avoid system halt when generating a report
  • form storage entry -- fixed issue when parent_id is not-numeric
  • fixed issue removing a module that is tagged as needing to be updated Bug 853936
  • moved the autoloader to use the spl_autoload_register so that multiple libraries can be imported (e.g. PHPExcel)

    • post delete hook cleans up the form, rather than the whole factory
    • Added in option for 'linked' report fields to display as an image instead of just a link for IMAGE type formfields

Outstanding

  • Form Relationship:
    • Allow for more complicated joins in a form relationship -- e.g. "secondary" conditions on ancestral forms. Done for SQL. Needs to be done for getFormsSatisfying()
    • Allow for joining a child form in a relationship multiply (both in a report and in the getFormsSatisfying())
    • handle joining "any" form and make joining forms clearer
  • Add easy support for multiple platforms:
    • Add tests to determine platforms, e.g. ie7, firefox, safari, chrome, mobile (which ones?)
    • platform should be saved in a session variable
    • Add support to the file search for platform specific files (e.g. for css). For example:

<source lang='xml'>

 <path name='css'>
 <value>./css/default</value>

</path> <path name='css' platform='ie7'>

 <value>./css/ie7</value>

</path>

</source>

    • Add support for "platform resolution." For example search for ie7, then ie then the default
  • Field Containers
    • Break up existing limits to separate modules for fields and relationships
    • Add in form limits
  • Standardized letters/forms:
    • Add in return/view links for standardized letter menu
    • Search results can be used to generate multiple letters at once
    • add new display "table" which can loop through multiple child forms in a relationship
  • Qualify: Use tasks for permission handling instead of roles for everything instead of just a few places.
  • Manage: when a person passes a training course which has CEUs, those CEUS are added as a child form to that person.
  • in the "Configure System" page, when the user's role is 'admin' provide a link to the 'Project Communication' page and 'Technical Documentation' page on the wiki. People are not finding this when they need to
  • when a list is read-only, then do not show the 'edit/update' link from the database lists page. instead go to the view list page.
  • allow way to see a list of the forms and their instances that a related to a particular form (parent-child or mapped value to a list)
  • form storage entry should allow string id's not just unique integers across all forms stored in entry.
  • the FormStorage::migrateForm() method should not create the named form in the entry table if it is not already present -- causes an issues with loading of the sample data b/c facility_contact could for example be created in the FacilityContact module before the sample data defining facility contact is loaded.
  • add in iso currencies to pre-populate currencies
  • Display the limits that a report is currently set to on the report display.
  • CSV/Excel report export -- add option to show metadata about what limits were chosen, when report was generated (ask Julie S.)
  • Move all string from php to templates
  • Add in Simply Joined mechanisim for forms to enable reading in data from openMRS style vertical tables.
  • Review strings in .pot files to ensure that they translatable as sentences and rework templates/make printf substitutions as appropriate
  • Fix-up selection list to be a tree for position+facility rather than a drop down list:
    we should be able to set position+facility to have default display fields 'facility+location:county:district:[region]:country'
    the problem is that currently, facility+location can take values in either the forms 'county' or 'district' and using the the above display fields string, we would only list the facilities whose location are a county.
  • Custom Reports: when a form is componentized, add "easy" option to limit based on the components. e.g. show only the people within "Northern Region"
    Optionally define and use the metadata at /modules/forms/form_storage/options/$storage/component/name
  • Speedup validation of mapfields w/ unique_field set to be something like 'country:region'
  • Speedup I2CE_List::monsterMash and I2Ce_List::createDataTree
    • short circuit and return once a match is found instead of getting all the matches
    • If two successive forms have storage mechanisms subclassing I2CE_FormStorage_DB try to use a sub-select rather than process through PHP
  • replace instances of foreach($something) { $this->template->appendTemplateFile('some.html',$appendNode);} with $add_node = $this->template->loadHTMLFile('some.html'); foreach ($something) { $this->template->appendNode($add_node->clone(true),$append_node);}
  • Add tasks to Qualify
  • add in limits for dates where date is(requested form MVC):
    • after a given time period from now (e.g. after 6 months pervious to now)
      • period in months (as int)
      • period in year (as int)
    • before a given time period from now (e.g. after 6 months pervious to now)
      • period in months (as int)
      • period in year (as int)
  • Training Sample data should be separated from Medical Sample Data. Currently ManageMedicalData enables SampleData-training_course_category which requires training-course.
  • Add in MongoDB Magic Data Storage
  • Modify Magic Data Storage to add a canonical/permanent flag so permanent storage will never be cleared. Add initialize option to choose MongoDB or DB to be used as permanent storage.
