Adding new columns to trac AccountManager plugin - plugins

I want to add new columns to the trac AccountManager plugin, I already edited the admin_user.html, but in python what do I have to edit, which files. I want to add two more data field. ex: group and telephone, How can I do that?
UPDATED
This is the two field I added in the admin_user.html
<div class="field">
<label>Telephone:<br />
<input type="text" name="tel" class="textwidget"
value="${account.tel}" /></label>
</div>
<div class="field">
<label>Group:<br />
<input type="text" name="group" class="textwidget"
value="${account.group}" /></label>
</div>
and I also added the two column to the table:
<td>${acct.group}</td>
<td>${acct.last_visit}</td>
But I'm not familiar with python, so I don't know how can I add the functionality in the python code

Did you check UserManagerPlugin for it's ability to add arbitrary new columns?
But maybe you want it some additions to the generic view in users admin page, right? These must be optional, if you care for universal use, of course.
In 'admin.py' you'll see a Class 'AccountManagerAdminPages' with a module '_do_users'. This module is primary handler for all requests related to the admin page in question. While the beginning is about processing 'POST' (user input) everything after the line 'if listing_enabled:' will prepare the page displayed next. You'll see various sources, but main source is query to Trac db table 'session_attribute'.
Again I'd like you to take a look at UserManagerPlugin - all what you may want and more.
Disclosure: I'm the current maintainer of AccountManagerPlugin.

How do I validate multiple checkboxes, using Statamic forms?

I'm using Statamic CMS
I've got a checkbox group with two checkboxes, I'd like both of them to be checked before the form will submit.
Setting the field as 'required' half works. The form will error if nothing is checked, but it submits if one of the boxes is ticked.
I can see under the validation tab, there's a list of additional rules. But I'm not sure which rule to use.
If it helps, this is what the HTML checkbox group looks like:
<div>
<label>Contact permissions</label>
<span>Please tick both checkboxes</span>
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxes[]" value="gdpr" />
Please contact me with the details I've provided
</label>
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxes[]" value="terms" />
I agree with the terms and conditions
</label>
</div>
I'm using the {{ fields }} tag to generate the HTML
Within the CMS, under the validation tab, there's a link to the Laravel docs. As I want to validate two checkboxes, I think I need the required_with: rule, but I can't get it to work...
required_with: is looking for two values, the example shows this:
required_with:foo,bar,..
The values of the checkboxes are, value="gdpr" and value="terms" so I (wrongly) assume this should work...
required_with:gdpr,terms
After saving the changes and testing the form, it still submits? Even though only one of the checkboxes might be ticked...
What is the correct syntax/values to use to get this to work?
:) foo,bar in the docs are field names in your form. What you're doing with gdpr,terms are values.
Plus, since both your buttons are named checkboxes[], the form is validating that if either one is selected, then it should be passed. Hopefully this helps!

TYPO3 merge list and edit

I've got a TYPO3 backend module which lists a lot of elements. Now, I want to include in my list the edit form, but that doesn't work well at the moment.
Rendering is good, but if I send the form, I get the error:
Required argument "note" is not set.
My code looks like this:
<f:for each="{notes}" as="note">
<f:form action="update" name="note" object="{note}">
<textarea class="form-control gettooltip" rows="1" placeholder="Kommentar" title="Kommentar zur Note">{note.kommentar}</textarea>
</f:form>
</f:for>
How can I merge these two views correctly?
Your code cannot work because your textarea doesn't have a property (or you don't use the <f:form.textarea ViewHelper).
If you property map $note in your controller, the property must be passed to Fluid with the prefixed extension name and plugin name. This is done automatically when using the "property" argument of the textarea ViewHelper. The name attribute will then be:
<textarea name="tx_myext_myplugin[note]"...
Thîs will map to $note in the controller.
So if you don't use the ViewHelper, you need to manually prefix the name attribute to create an output like printed just above.
If you're planning to update multiple objects of the of the same kind in one request, this won't because because there is an Extbase limitation.
You could do the following:
Use a submit button for each note and save/reload the changes through AJAX.
<f:for each="{notes}" as="note">
<f:form action="update" name="note" object="{note}">
<f:form.textarea class="form-control gettooltip" placeholder="Kommentar" property="kommentar">{note.kommentar}</f:form.textarea>
<f:form.submit value="Update" />
</f:form>
</f:for>
Then you intercept the submit click, submit the form through AJAX and set the new content to the textarea.
If you want to have one form for all objects, you will need to prefix the fields
<f:form action="update" name="note">
<f:for each="{notes}" as="note">
<f:form.textarea class="form-control gettooltip" placeholder="Kommentar" name="note[note{note.uid}][kommentar]">{note.kommentar}</f:form.textarea>
</f:for>
<f:form.submit value="Update" />
</f:form>
You will then have an array of values and need to iterate in your controller and manually persist the changes.
For your problem - as #lorenz answered you need to use viewhelpers for rendering fields OR at least use valid name attributes for your fields...
Anyway, I'm wondering why do you want to reinvent the wheel - especially while creating BE modules, the fastest, easiest and most elegant way is... using TYPO3 forms. They handle many things, relations, localization, validation, RTE etc, etc. What's more you can also add own type of field to TCA and process with your own PHP and JS - very rare situation, but may be used i.e. for adding GoogleMap field,
#see: user type in TCA
Finally all you need to open the record from your BE module is creating proper link - which can be easily copied from List module (right click on the yellow pencil next to your record and copy the code), sample:
<a href="#" onclick="window.location.href='alt_doc.php?returnUrl='+T3_THIS_LOCATION+'&edit[fe_users][1234]=edit'; return false;" title="Edit user">
<span title="" class="t3-icon t3-icon-actions t3-icon-actions-document t3-icon-document-open"> </span>
</a>
Where fe_users is table name and 1234 is record uid.
alt_doc.php?returnUrl='+T3_THIS_LOCATION part handles returning to the place from which edit was started, so it will be your module again including all GET params selected by admin before editing.
For creating new user
<a href="#" onclick="window.location.href='alt_doc.php?returnUrl='+T3_THIS_LOCATION+'&edit[fe_users][6789]=new'; return false;" title="New record">
<span class="t3-icon t3-icon-actions t3-icon-actions-document t3-icon-document-new"> </span>
</a>
In this case 6789 is a PID (uid of the page where the user should be created...
You can even set some default values when creating records from your own module using params in your new link:
&defVals[table_name][field_name]=value
sample
<a href="#" onclick="window.location.href='alt_doc.php?returnUrl='+T3_THIS_LOCATION+'&edit[fe_users][6789]=new&defVals[fe_users][tx_extbase_type]=Tx_MyExt_People&defVals[fe_users][usergroup]=1'; return false;" title="New record">
<span class="t3-icon t3-icon-actions t3-icon-actions-document t3-icon-document-new"> </span>
</a>

AngularJS retrieve from object based on entry in ng-repeat input

This application is for running a writing contest.
Coodinators are assigning entries to judges for them to judge. I have three sets of data I retrieve from the server, a judge list, an entries list and an assignment list that ties the two together. There can be a variable number of input fields...if a judge has agreed to judge 4 entries, there will be 4 inputs...if 7, then 7.
I have all of that working OK, but only insofar as the entry number can be input and the data updated.
Now I would like confirm that the entryID IS a valid ID by checking the list and also to show a field or two on the screen so the coordinator knows that they typed in the right entry.
The relevant section of the HTML
<div ng-app>
<div id="assignment" ng-controller="AssignData" ng-init="JudgeID=107;CategorySelect='MS';PublishSelect='P'">
<div ng-show="loaded">
<form class="entryform ng-cloak" name="assignform" ng-submit="sendForm()">
<p>Entry numbers assigned to this judge</p>
<p ng-repeat="assign in (formassigns =(assigns | filter:AssignedJudge))">
<input type="text" ng-model="assign.entryid" required/>
{{entries.authorname}} {{entries.entrytitle}}
</p>
<button type="submit">Save Assignments</button>
<p>This will keep the assignments attached to this judge.
You will be able to send all of your assignments to all
of your judges when you are finished.</p>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The part that I haven't been able to figure out is how to make entries.authorname and entries.entrytitle show up when the user types in an entryid that is in entries.entryid.
assigns and entries are both arrays of records using JSON
assigns is JSON made up of assigns.id, assigns.judgeid, assigns.entryid.
entries is JSON made up of entries.entryid, entries.entrytitle, entries.authorname
When assigns arrives, entryid is empty. The form is used to fill in the entryid and when it is filled in, I'd like to be able to show next to it the title and authorname for that entry.
NOTE: I've added some important information at the end of this answer. So please read to the end before you decide what you're going to do.
You're going to have to do something that does the look up.
Also a few other changes I'd add, mostly so you can actually validate the items in your repeat.
(There's a summary of what I did after the psuedo code below).
<div ng-app>
<div id="assignment" ng-controller="AssignData"
ng-init="JudgeID=107;CategorySelect='MS';PublishSelect='P'">
<div ng-show="loaded">
<form class="entryform ng-cloak" name="assignform" ng-submit="sendForm()">
<p>Entry numbers assigned to this judge</p>
<p ng-repeat="assign in (formassigns =(assigns | filter:AssignedJudge))"
ng-form="assignForm">
<input type="text" ng-model="assign.entryid"
ng-change="checkEntryId(assign, assignForm)"
name="entryid" required/>
<span ng-show="assignForm.entryid.$error.required">required</span>
<span ng-show="assignForm.$error.validEntry">
{{assignForm.$error.validEntry[0]}}</span>
{{assign.entry.authorname}} {{assign.entry.entrytitle}}
</p>
<button type="submit">Save Assignments</button>
<p>This will keep the assignments attached to this judge.
You will be able to send all of your assignments to all
of your judges when you are finished.</p>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Then in your controller, you'd add a function like so (be sure to inject $http or a service you wrote to pull the values from the server):
$scope.checkEntryId = function(assign, form) {
$http.get('/CheckEntry?id=' + assign.entryid,
function(entry) {
if(entry) {
assign.entry = entry;
form.$setValidity('validEntry', true);
} else {
form.$setValidity('validEntry', false, 'No entry found with that id');
}
}, function() {
form.$setValidity('validEntry', true, 'An error occurred during the request');
console.log('an error occurred');
});
};
The basic idea above:
Use ng-form on your repeating elements to allow for validation of those dynamic parts.
Create a function that you can pass your item and your nested form to.
In that function, make your AJAX call to see if the entry is valid.
Check the validity based on the response, and call $setValidity on your nested form you passed to the function.
Use ng-show on a span (or something) in your nested form to show your validation messages.
Also, assign your checked entry to your repeated object for display purposes. (you could use a seperate array if you want, I suppose, but that would probably get unnecessarily complicated).
I hope that helps.
EDIT: Other thoughts
You might want to wrap your call in a $timeout or some sort of throttling function to prevent the entry id check from spamming yoru server. This is an implementation detail that's totally up to you.
If this is a check you do all over the place, you'll probably want to create a directive to do it. The idea would be very similar, but you'll do the check inside of a $parser on the ngModelController.
The method I showed above will still actually update the model's entryid, even if it's invalid. This is usually not a big deal. If it is, you'll want to go with what I suggested in "other thought #2", which is a custom validation directive.
If you need more information about validation via custom directives I did a blog entry on that a while back

Play 2.0 Nested forms: generate <input id="email"> instead of <input id="user_email">

Posted this to Play user group; I account for the sole view, so hoping to get a view, or perhaps even an answer ;-)
Nested forms are great, but there's one glitch that adds boilerplate to either javascript or scala templates.
For example, given:
#inputText(field = _form("user.email"),
'_label-> "Email Address*",
'class-> "required email",
'placeholder-> "jdoe#gmail.com"
)
the generated input field is something like:
<input id="user_email" name="user.email" ...>
Now, when you want to validate the email address client-side you then have to reference DOM id: $('#user_email')
Where $('#email') would be more natural.
I know I can set the id attrib manually in the template but would prefer to, by default, have the nested name (user in this case) stripped out from the id attrib.
Looking in github views helper directory, I am not finding where I can get access to the generated id (i.e. which file I need to overload and how).
Anyone know how to pull this off and/or have a better approach?
Here is where the field's ID is auto-generated:
https://github.com/playframework/Play20/blob/master/framework/src/play/src/main/scala/play/api/data/Form.scala#L274
There's not really any way you can override that behaviour, but you could write your own #inputText helper that strips the "user_" part from the ID when generating the HTML.
Basically copy-paste the default helper and replace
<input type="text" id="#id" ...
with your own code, e.g.
<input type="text" id="#processFieldId(id)" ...
or (untested!):
<input type="text" id="#(id.split('_').last)" ...
Then just import your custom helper in your template, and use it just like you would use #inputText.

jQuery ajaxSubmit(): ho to send the form referencing on the fields id, instead of the fields name?

im pretty new to jQuery, and i dont know how to do that, and if it can be done without editing manually the plugin.
Assume to have a simply form like that:
<form action="page.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="Your name" id="contact-name" value="" />
Email: <input type="text" name="Your email" id="contact-email" value="" />
</form>
When you submit it, both in 'standard' way or with ajaxSubmit(), the values of the request take the label of the field name, so in the page.php i'll have:
$_POST['Your name'];
$_POST['Your email'];
Instead i'll like to label the submitted values with the id of the field:
$_POST['contact-name'];
$_POST['contact-email'];
Is there a way to do that with jquery and the ajaxsubmit() plugin?
And, maybe, there is a way to do it even with the normal usage of a form?
p.s: yes, i know, i could set the name and id attributes of the field both as 'contact-name', but how does two attributes that contain the same value be usefull?
According to the HTML spec, the browser should submit the name attribute, which does not need to be unique across elements.
Some server-side languages, such as Rails and PHP, take multiple elements with certain identical names and serialize them into data structures. For instance:
<input type="text" name="address[]" />
<input type="text" name="address[]" />
If the user types in 1 Infinite Loop in the first box and Suite 45 in the second box, PHP and Rails will show ["1 Infinite Loop", "Suite 45"] as the contents of the address parameter.
This is all related to the name attribute. On the other hand, the id attribute is designed to uniquely represent an element on the page. It can be referenced using CSS using #myId and in raw JavaScript using document.getElementById. Because it is unique, looking it up in JavaScript is very fast. In practice, you would use jQuery or another library, which would hide these details from you.
It is reasonably common for people to use the same attribute value for id and name, but the only one you need to care about for form submission is name. The jQuery Form Plugin emulates browser behavior extremely closely, so the same would apply to ajaxSubmit.
It's the way forms work in HTML.
Besides, Id's won't work for checkboxes and radio buttons, because you'll probably have several controls with the same name (but a different value), while an HTML element's id attribute has to be unique in your document.
If you really wanted, you could create a preprocessor javascript function that sets every form element's name to the id value, but that wouldn't be very smart IMHO.
var name = $("#contact-name").val();
var email = $("#contact-email").val();
$.post("page.php", { contact-name: name, contact-email: email } );
This will let you post the form with custom attributes.
