The code used to operate under the assumption that MariaDB doesn't support
quoting identifiers. Not only is that not exactly true, but MariaDB has
reserved keywords that cannot be used as table or column names unquoted.
We don't guess the current profile anymore if the value of the profile === -1
Also sets $this->scoped for all ScopingNoticeStream inheritors, which just
like in an Action can be null if we're not scoped in any way (logged in).
Also removed the entirely unused saveGroups function.
Now avoiding multiGet and using listFind in Profile->getGroups()
so we don't have to deal with ArrayWrapper.
...no need to make a separate call to Local_group's setNickname all the time,
or a bunch of redundant code for the Profile table.
Next up is User->update()...
I implemented changes from quitter.se's new API that their front-end qvitter
uses, https://github.com/hannesmannerheim/qvitter/blob/master/api-changes-1.1.1/CHANGES
However I left out the URL shortening commens, since I believe whatever behaviour
they experienced that caused them to implement this was a bug (or many) and should
be fixed in their proper areas and that shortening should not be entirely left
out in API calls.
I used this hacky sed-command (run it from your GNU Social root, or change the first grep's path to where it actually lies) to do a rough fix on all ::staticGet calls and rename them to ::getKV
sed -i -s -e '/DataObject::staticGet/I!s/::staticGet/::getKV/Ig' $(grep -R ::staticGet `pwd`/* | grep -v -e '^extlib' | grep -v DataObject:: |grep -v "function staticGet"|cut -d: -f1 |sort |uniq)
If you're applying this, remember to change the Managed_DataObject and Memcached_DataObject function definitions of staticGet to getKV!
This might of course take some getting used to, or modification fo StatusNet plugins, but the result is that all the static calls (to staticGet) are now properly made without breaking PHP Strict Standards. Standards are there to be followed (and they caused some very bad confusion when used with get_called_class)
Reasonably any plugin or code that tests for the definition of 'GNUSOCIAL' or similar will take this change into consideration.
The parent class for our database objects, Managed_DataObject, has a
dynamically assigned class in staticGet which objects get put into,
leaving us with less code to do the same thing.
We will probably have to move away from the DB_DataObject 'staticGet'
call as it is nowadays deprecated.
If you look at classes/User_group.php on line 412 in the current code, you can see that a call to $profile->getGroups() is made. This implies getGroups($offset=0, $limit=PROFILES_PER_PAGE) only giving a limited amount of groups.
This means only the first 20 groups in an ascending numerical order by locally stored User_group->id will be addressable with the bangtag syntax.
I solved this by making the getGroups() call to the same one made in Profile->isMember(), i.e. $profile->getGroups(0, null);
