After uninstalling a plugin, the translated strings remain in
tool_customlang table, throwing an exception when trying to localise
any strings. Currently there is no mechanism to
clean up customlang tables and files during the uninstall process,
so with this patch the invalid components will be ignored.
pdftoppm (from poppler-utils package) is several orders of
magnitude quicker than ghostscript extracting PNG images
from PDF documents.
We add support for this tool and use it whenever set up,
or using gs as before if missing.
Revisited code with peer review comments. In particular:
1. Make default path for pdftoppm empty string.
2. Fix a typo on the method description for get_gs_command_for_image.
3. Added more information why is useful pdftoppm into string pathtopdftoppm_help.
4. Check that path for pdftoppm is executable to prevent errors. Otherwise, use gs.
As discussed in MDLSITE-6397, all Moodle code files should end with
single Unix-style end of line character. Files created and edited
through the XMLDB editor should follow this rule, too.
* When a label is passed to an (advanced) checkbox and no text
was provided, the label will be displayed on the right of the the
checkbox element. So there's no point in passing an empty string for
the label just to render the text to the right of the checkbox.
Uses of the httpsreplace and customlang tools are known to be extremely
slow.
In our CI infrastructure on slwoer DBs, the customlang tool can take
over 90 seconds to load the page, whilst the httpsreplace tool can take
up to about 60 seconds.
These changes set appropriate timeout factors to increase the timeout
accordingly.
These steps were completely pointless and were failing with the W3C
Webdriver becuase focus was never on the Update Profile button in the
first place.
At a minimum we should remove the Focus change step as it not valid, but
the following step is also pointless.
This just deletes all the upgrade steps previous to 3.6.0. Some
small adjustments, like tweaking globals can also be applied
when needed.
Also includes an upgrade step to prevent upgrading from any
version < 2018120300 (v3.6.0) as anti-cheating measure.
Note that in this case, there wasn't any case of upgradelib
functions being used, hence we haven't to deprecate/remove
anything in codebase. When there is such a need, that is done
in separate commits (one for each function) and documented here.
See MDL-65809 commits for an example removing/deprecating a
good number of functions.
