1.2.6 Beta Commit Log – Feb 16, 2012

by Leave a Comment

Today I committed a bunch of smaller changes as well as a big change. I have attempted to resolve most of the performance issues with the file list taking too long to load when there are 1000+ files in the system. Need more users to test this and provide feedback to determine if this issue is resolved.
  • UDF: Admin menu item shows blank for admin (non root) user
  • UDF: Need error trapping for mysql queries in the udf_functions
  • Large number of files causes out.php to respond slowly during initial load
  • Plug-ins: Add a hook for acting on the File->Edit/add data before it is saved
  • Add plugin hooks for file list

OpenDocMan is an open source document management system designed to comply with ISO 17025 for document management.

New Features/Fixes Upcoming

by Leave a Comment

There are a number of new features upcoming for the 1.2.6 release and I felt like doing a preview of them to get some feedback from the community.

Feature: Web-based configuration – Gone is editing the config.php file for all the various settings. The only thing it holds now is the database connection info. There is going to be a new admin option called Edit Settings which will provide you with a nice web form for updating all of the various opendocman settings.

Feature: Multi-Language support – We have integrated a translation feature into OpenDocMan that will allow anyone to translate their own languages. Currently have Dutch, German, Spanish and Turkish. To translate a new language you would just need to copy the /includes/language/english.php file and rename it to your language. Then proceed to translate the various words and phrases from english to your own language. The new language will then be available in the Edit Settings page.

Feature: Web-based Filetypes Editor – You no longer have to edit the config.php file to add/update filetypes. There is now a new admin settings page called Edit File Types that lets you Select/Unselect/Add/Delete new filetypes that are allowed to be uploaded to your DMS.

Feature: jQuery Table output – The default file list code has been converted over to a nice jQuery table, with sortable columns, search, and pagination features. This replaces a hand-made system that was bloated and complex.

Feature: New UI Tweeks – Some improvements to the overall UI including new button styling, and more visual feedback messages.

Feature: Improved installer logic to provide better feedback to user on errors

Many bug fixes including:

  • Non-admin user promoting themselves to admin
  • Fresh install should use IF NOT EXISTS for db creation
  • allowedFileTypes – not used for Adding a file, but is used for check-in
  • PHP 5.3 Depricated functions
  • Depricated function – ereg
  • Usage of MySQL’s PASSWORD function in OpenDocMan
  • Search by filename is hardcoded to be non-wildcard
  • Add user error Incorrect integer value

We also have a list of some features that will be looked at for v2.0. You can vote on these features at our uservoice site
