This project is a small framework design test to improve some of the modules to be implemented into WebContext, the other project I am leading, a full featured and industrial PHP framework.
To be able to follow work in progress , here are the list of the last features we are working on, in a day-by-day format.
HtmlForm to Entity
HtmlForm component send data through HTTP post operation. With the new loadFromPost() method in the Entity, data save is enable.
Any PageManager must implement a save() method to store data sent from the Form.
- HtmlForm bugfix about name and action attributes,
- Entity modified to support “POST” data update to entity attributes. Image attribute type is not supported right now. will be fixed soon. As it’s a prototype, transmitted data are not already sanitized about XSS or any SQLInjection. Data sanitizer will be soon implemented as a Singleton oriented “service”.
HtmlForm
To implement new Html components, HtmlComponent has been updated: now, enctype attribute manage multipart form to enable File upload.
- HtmlFile support File html input and automaticaly add enctype to form.
- HtmlSelect manage new selectOptions parameter for the HtmlComponent.
Role Management
A new internal entity appear to support User Role.
Forms & Users
- HtmlForm and HtmlComponent ’s to provide easyway to create Form on Entity, following an automatic generation way, based on Entity Attribute description.
- Entity just modified to manage in a better way attributes and their types.
- Internal Entity for User management.
- User, Role , and UserManager is currently implemented, relying on HtmlForm work.
